Facebook hacked? Anyone getting random texts from FB?

I am getting texts like these every few minutes? Is there a vulnerability? Domain is fb.com which means its not phishing. I also had the thought that facebook is sending these out to link users phone numbers to their accounts (tin foil hat).

Click https://fb.com/l/2XXXXXXXXXXq or use the code 2XXX2 on Facebook to create your account

7XXX2 is your Facebook confirmation code #fb

Someone is trying to create a Facebook account using your contact information. Something that happens to me hourly, because people just cannot stop assuming [email protected] is their email address.

Don't confirm. Usually, the emails have a link where you can tell Facebook you are not trying to open an account or reset your password. Carefully inspect it before following it.

Ten years ago, I got fed up enough to write a post. It hasn't let up ;-)
