Probably a scam.
Apple does not send texts about purchases and if you don't see the charge on your payment method's statement, then it doesn't actually exist.
The provided number is very likely a scam number meant to get you to divulge personal details to the person on the other end.

I received the same message re: an Apple Store charge! Scam.
I just received the same message with the same amount as well. I figured it was probably a phishing scam, but I'd never received or seen a message like this before. And, yeah, the bad grammar was a tip off also. "That looks like suspicious to us." LOL Glad I checked, though.
Just received the same message. The grammar errors were the first red flag for me.

Big Thanks to the community, I figured as much just wanted to confirm.
Hi:

Me too! What costs $143.95? I'm dying to know!
