Lost iphone

Hello! For one week ago my iphone got stolen. I have not been able to use "find my iphone" beacuase the phone has been turned off and I dont have the personal code. Today I got a message from an unknown number called "KARXIO" with the text


"Dear costumers. Your lost iPhone XR was been located. View location/ Apple Support"


And then there is a link that seems a little suspect. Is this from apple support or not? I dont really trust the link. But I really want to get my phone back.


Thankful for any help!!

NO, it isn't from Apple (Apple will never call you "dear costumer" and will never be involved in a lost or stolen device).

Ignore it and DO NOT give any personal info to anyone.
