Text about a $464 Apple Store charge I never made

Got a text message saying there was a $464.99 transaction pending at the Apple Store in Orlando, FL on my account. Also said there were sign-in attempts and Apple Pay activation requests from unknown locations. They put the transaction on hold supposedly.

It said if it wasn’t me to go into Settings and sign into my Apple ID, or call this number +1(888)-524-9145. The whole thing felt off. I didn’t click anything or call. I just checked my actual Apple account directly and there was nothing like that pending. The email attached was [email protected] and the phone number came back to a Phoenix, AZ area code. Clearly not Apple. Just wanted to report it so others know.
