Your phone has not been hacked. The message is a scam from a criminal hoping to steal your identity or to talk you into paying them money for a useless app or service. So just ignore it. If you tapped a link in the message and entered any personal information that information is no compromised and can be used to impersonate you or steal from you. If you did not tap a link or did not enter any information if you did tap it then you are OK.
