Morgan Stanley Text Communication?

Hey all,

I was recently contacted by a "recruiter" going by the name of Michael Stern at Morgan Stanley. However, I thought the whole thing was a little fishy as it was via text message. I believe I did check the box allowing text communication during the application process but I assumed that would just include standardized updates on the position.

Anyone ever had this happen to them?
