I received an SMS from Thames Water, or so it claimed, asking if a previous issue had been resolved; given the negative experiences shared here, I'm treating it with caution, despite having had a genuine issue with Thames Water about three weeks prior.

Expert Opinion
It seems like +447860099938 is a number being used by scammers to pose as Thames Water. The typical ploy involves sending texts that appear to be from Thames Water, asking recipients to confirm if a recent issue has been resolved by replying with a 'yes' or 'no'. Many users have reported that the grammar and spelling in these messages are often off, and some have even received confusing follow-up messages. Thames Water has confirmed that genuine texts from them would show the company name, not a number.
