Mortimer Clarke CCJ? - Text only

Hi,
I have received a text from Mortimer Clarke saying to call them stating a reference number (no detail).
Looking online they deal with CCJ's but I don't believe I have any debt and I haven't received any letters from them or anyone else.
I lived at my parents until pretty recently (even when I was at uni at left my bank address etc as my parents) so if letters had gone to that address I would have got them.
Maybe they have my number by mistake? There is no mention of me in the text e.g. my name.
Shall I call them or just leave it?

If it was me, I would just block their number...I work within the voluntary sector, supporting vulnerable people to rebuild their lives.
I love my job

. . . . Shall I call them or just leave it?
Mortimer Clarke solicitors act for Cabot (who own them) so if you've not had any contact from them (Cabot) I can't think of any good reason why MC are trying to reach you.
I would definitely not call them (just in case).
If they genuinely need to contact you then they can write you a letter.
