Phishing text?

I received the following text saying I’d purchased an app that I hadn’t. When I called to find out what was going on, they wanted info about my phone. When I told them I would not give them that info, asking if they could look up the purchase via the order number, the person told me to “just hang up the phone.” Should I be worried about this? The people that answered the phone clearly identified themselves as Apple Support. It then ended the call when I asked for more info.


Here’s the text:

Thank you for your purchase from App Store. Product Name: iHarmoy. Amount: $433.99 USD. DATE : September-24-2020 ORDER ID : 5570K60LU0 In case you haven't placed this order, Please get in touch with our support team immediately on 1-888-927-0744. For Opt Out Reply STOP
