Hi @H64
Thank you for reaching out to the PayPal Community Forum!
We appreciate you taking the time to report this to us. That SMS you received is NOT from PayPal. Please delete it immediately so you won't click on it by accident.
The link will take you to a fake website which will try to capture your login credentials.
Hope this helps!
Kudos and Solved are highly appreciated.
