Text message about mobile phone billing

I received multiple messages while I was still asleep about entering a code to confirm mobile phone billing as an apple services payment method. Never received something like this before, I don’t know if this is a scam or if apple actually sends these types of messages.

iPhone 13, iOS 17

Blocking texts from scammers I keep getting false apple messages from a mobile number saying my apple isn’t working and to follow a link. I don’t follow it. A few things flag up for me, the text font style is odd, spelling not correct. I keep blocking them by clicking on their info and scrolling down to block but it doesn’t work. It does say blocked but it’s not actually blocking. I’ve took all my bank cards off my phone and I’m worried about using my phone for purchases. I have an iPhone 7. Can anyone help or know a difference brand where the security is up to a higher standard?

billing and texts from service provider Hello, This week. I have paid 3 small amounts in 2 popular games from the Apple Store. I always get a text from my service provider about the amount I’ve been charged due to me using Mobile Number for payment in settings. However, suddenly I’ve gotten a text that a payment was successful with an amount that’s rather high. I did not do this myself. It always gives an Apple ID transaction code so I went to see in the apple billing site to review my history. This payment was no where to be found and I’ve no clue what it was supposed to be spend on. As i use mobile billing (on a pre paid sim card) this amount can’t even be spend cause i don’t have this amount on the number.. Now these questions go through my mind like, was this message a scam regardless of it coming from the usual service providers number? Was there an actual attempt to pay something? Do I need to do something/contact anyone? Am I in danger regarding my Icloud/financial stuff? Thanks for anyone replying! ps: A day ago i also received a text stating I got partial refund for something I actually did pay myself (did not request a refund whatsoever). Though I did not get a refund at all. And the payment is actually still marked as pending in apple billing.. Im confused…
