Text scam?

Around Mothers day my Mum got a text from an unrecognised number, the text said 'Mum, this is my new number xxx'. I didn't send it and neither did my brother. Is this a known scam or just a mistake/wrong number?

Hello Mum scams are probably the most widely known and prolific of all of them, I'm actually pretty amazed that not one of you has heard of them

If you've got a couple of days to spare have a google
