"A scam as in you call the number and they try to shake you down for something? Or a scam as in someone used your identity to order something?"
I didn't know what kind of scam it was when I posted. First thought was I butt-ordered some app but knew that was unlikely, so googled the text I got. It seems several people have received the same thing. I think leilanidude has the right response. A scammer has got a hold of a bunch of phone numbers and is hoping people will call or reply to the text. I'm certain they didn't get hold of my credit card or personal info but that's what they were after.
Thought I'd mention it to everyone as I've received scam calls but this is the first one I got as a text so was a bit of a surprise.
