759 Text Scam?

Hi - I keep receiving sporadic text messages allegedly from '759' stating I have XX voicemail  messages and the last message was from XXXXXXXX on XXXXXX. With a link to dial 759. When I preview the link it does show 759.

 

The numbers aren't from anyone in my call lists and I have live voicemail turned on, and the numbers don't show against any of the historical voicemail messages. 

 

I presume this is either a scam or system error?

It appears to be genuine Sky voicemail:

Have you held 1 on the keyboard to dial voicemail rather than use the number to check for any new messages?

Yeah. It looks legit and links to 759, but the content of the message is complete nonsense I.e. the phone numbers are all random and not linked to any of my call logs and actual voicemails.

Thanks for the update. I suspect the number has been spoofed.
