EA security codes by text message

I received multiple text messages from this (+[Removed - Admin.]) phone number. The texts say "Your EA security code is: ....." With of course a different number each time, is this a valid EA phonenumber or not? I normally receive my codes by mail and I didn't request those codes I got by text, please help.

    So what happens when it's a real text from EA and you didn't request it but it's on a Sunday so NO ONE IS AT THE CALL CENTER..... does the hacker just win?

    @thouser27 I’ve had those too for the past few weeks. The language is Russian and it’s an EA verification code.
