Is this text message scam?

I've suddenly been getting the following text messages:

 

Telus Communication

There's an issue processing your recent payment. To maintain uninterrupted service. Please update here; https://telus.paymentapp-reviews.net

 

from the following phone number: 306-502-3658. I got 4 within 30 minutes. I blocked the number and did not go to the link. I went online to my account from my laptop, not on my phone, and there hasn't been any recent bill payment nor is any due anytime soon. 

 

Is this a scam?

Yes it's a scam.

 

The company name is incomplete. The URL it's pointing you to isn't telus.com and the phone number is NOT a Telus number. That's an overseas scam call center.
