It depends upon which version of iOS you are using, but as far as I know, the most effective way is to restrict text messages to allow texts only from your contacts.
I hope you did not use the link on the text to change your password.

Feb 18, 2015 4:26 PM in response to Ashowstonby damaag,You can not only change the password but the security questions and even change the email on the account.
All from
AppleID.Apple.com
And Manage your Apple ID.
The Phishers will no longer have any part of you Apple ID then.
**If you do that make sure to turn off the Find My iPhone first for that Apple ID, if you use it**
