Is this a scam? I get 3-4 of these a day!

It’s a text message telling me that my phone is compromised, and pictures will be sent out over the net.

Then some will say that my phone has been hacked, or infected with malware or a virus.

Yes, it is a scam attempt. Do not interact with the message or the sender.
