Received solicitation from a brokerage after finding my info

Hi all,

I passed my real estate license exam in Illinois over the recent weekend. I just received a solicitation via the phone from a brokerage trying to get me to join them. He found my information online showing that I passed. I'm pretty certain this is not legal based on the recent material I just learned, can anyone confirm this? I'm having trouble point to a specific rule speaking to this topic in the Illinois Real Estate License Act of 2000, but do recall there being a practice exam question mentioning how its illegal for a broker to be recruiting right outside the exam center after they take the test, which in my mind is the same thing here.
