So, whatever was sent there could include your contact details (home address and email address already admitted as having been intercepted) and no doubt a contact mobile number too.
Based on my above assumption, I would assume the text you received was fake and that they will use it to fish for other information (which you might think innocuous at the time) in order to get a proper handle on your info for identity theft.
Of course, it could just be a stupid DM journalist. Still not worth replying to
