very very common and there are all kinds of scam (phishing) emails and text messages pretending to be from Ebay
I get several emails every week from 'eBay' (scammers) and just recently there were a few threads from different people saying they were getting texts and phone calls from 'eBay (scammers) claiming they had bought Itunes rubbish and electricals

Received the same eBay call today 8 Sept 2020. You are being charged money for a transaction if you don't call this number now. I am so angry and sick of these phone calls. They are getting bold these so called scammers. They are likely to scam you depending on what frame of mind your in. You have to literally think everything is a scam nowdays. ps thanks for the advice.

If you did not make the purchase just ignore and delete.
You will probably find that they have got your number from your service provider or any one of the numerous businesses who have your number.
Some of these people even use the phone book....my home phone is in my name but we listed my OH's name in the phone book....whenever I get a call using his name I know it came from the phone book.

You should run all your anti-virus and Malware programs ASAP and change your on-line passwords.
