Text for Technician

The past few days, I've received a text about poor performance on my home Internet and Xfinity would like to schedule a technician for a house call.  My home Internet has been flakey lately, but I'm not sure if the text was a scam or real.  I did not respond to the text.

Anybody else receive these?  

Thanks-Jim

Concern moved here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to actual Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

I had the same question about whether a similar text I received was a scam. There was nothing visible when I logged in to my account, and the answer above does not address the question of WHETHER THE TEXT WAS A SCAM. I am inclined to think it probably wasn't, as the number it appeared to come from was the same one that the two-factor authentication text came from when I logged in, but "from" numbers can be spoofed and Xfinity ought to be clearer about these things.
