Fraudulent purchase alert on account

I received a text stating that a purchase was made to my account and to check to see if it was real. Can you help with this?

What to do about a fraudulent text from Apple Billing I also received the fraudulent text stating that a $143.95 charge from CA came through. What can we/should we do now, other than ignore it? Can we forward it somewhere so the scammers can be caught?

It is most likely one of a very common scam attempts, and I will guess the amount is $143.95. Ignore such messages.
