AppleProf/Apple Aware charge texts: Scam?

Good job in detecting a scam, Tellier55. 👍🏼

Some key points in a scam:

1. The messages never mentioned you by name (they don’t know it).
2. Suspicious accusations (claiming you have made a purchase when they have no physical access to your device).
3. Never click an unsolicited link or call a phone number they provide. This directs you to a scammer who is (most likely) working in an organized scam call center in another country.

That’s all the evidence you need to block, report and delete the message.

In closing:

If you receive a suspicious email or SMS text message that looks like it's supposed to be from Apple, please email it to reportphishing@apple.com. 

Learn how to ⇢ Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams.

Good luck! 👋🏼😉

Sometimes the message header and/or embedded links will be big clues, as in tis one about my Apple ID:
