Apple phishing scam

I received the same text as many others regarding a charge $143.95 I hope nobody is falling for this! And I really hope Apple is doing something about this as I I am sure they are or will be!! Again I hope nobody has fallen for this or been taken by it! The phone number they want you to call is from Honolulu, Hawaii🤦🏻‍♀️
