I had an iphone stolen overseas, and I got a text saying it was found.

I had my iPhone XS stolen overseas in April. I got a text today saying my lost iPhone was found, but it seems super weird, as I disconnected my apple ID from that phone the same day it was stolen.

The message came from a UK number:

Your lost iPhone XS 256 GB Gold has been detected online.

Seems pretty phishy to me but I wanted to make sure. I don't want my old stolen phone out there in the world still connected to me.
