Probably a scam. Apple will not send unrequested SMS messages for any reason.


Ignore them.

Though someone may be using your number as a trusted number to get 2 factor Authentication codes. In which case you may be gettin codes for them.


Contact your friends and relatives and see if anyone used your number as a trusted number.
