Legitimate - this number sends Covid testing registration numbers. You get one of these if you pre-register for a test online, and even if you don't, the staff at the testing facility may do it for you. The number is valid for 90 days, so you'll get a text saying it's expired some 3 months after you had the test. The website link is real - type it in if you don't want to click a link. https://testtracker.covid19.dhhs.vic.gov.au/citizen-prefill - AnonymousJuly 16, 2021SMSAustralia
