The shortcode is interesting - I wonder if it's a redirector that's been
hacked in some way.  ie in a similar way that https://bit.ly/abc123 could be a
redirect to https://evil.site/, anyone who controls the redirector can
forward links to their chosen site.  That part of their website
may be less well defended than the part that deals with money.  Maybe it has
since been fixed to redirect back to the right place?

Although for me it redirects to:
https://clientes.ocaso.es/#/login?utm_source=giso&utm_medium=sms&utm_campaign=alta-siniestro

The utm_ parts are typically a referrer codes used in tracking, for
example commissions for advertising.  'alta-siniestro' is 'claim
registration' and utm_medium=sms, so it sounds like a genuine link.

Or perhaps somebody in operations had fat fingers and sent SMSes to the
wrong people?
