Phishing Phone Link on I-Phone

Received a text with a bank's banner asking for confirmation of a charge at a store and since we recently had an iphone with credit cards in the holder stolen and used fraudulently, I thought these thieves were still shopping so I replied no and tapped the phone number link they provided. When no one answered the phone, I looked up the bank's fraud department and they advised they didn't text nor had any record of recent charges so confirmed it was phishing. What will happen to my phone and its contents now that I clicked on the dummy number link?
