I was recently hacked by an sms attack, how can I stop future attacks?

[AC Question]

I was recently hacked by an sms attack

I had just done a factory reset.

I kept Wifi and Bluethooth turned off.

I downloaded and was running the following apps
- 360security antivirus
- noroot firewall

I recieved a six digit text which appeared to come from my service provider. The problem was the text was a bunch of gibberish and it had a link embedded in the text.

Even though I did not click on the link shortly after my theme reset.

This is not the first time this has happened

I don't think you were hacked. There isn't a hack through SMS that I am aware of -- I would factory reset your phone and go from there.
