I Received an Urgent text message from Apple saying that I needed to update my account. It gave me a link and when I accessed the link it asked for my SSN, credit card, and other personal info. I did not fill any of it out, and changed my password. Does Apple send text messages out like that?
No.

Apple will never ask for information like that. You did the right thing by not providing any.
It was likely a phishing attempt.
