Why are you opening letters not addressed to you?

Whenever I get mail for someone else I send it back.

*UPDATE*

New letter received this morning from a solicitor firm. Getting very worried now as legal action is threatened within 7 days. Letter replicated below.

'Dear Sir/Madam,

Our Client: eBay Europe SARL

We have been instructed by Intrum Justitia in relation to your outstanding account in the sum of £XX.XX.

Unless our client receives payment in full or a valid reason for non payment of the account with the next 7 days, Court proceedings may be taken against you without further notice.

Should you wish to avoid such action you should phone our clients on (telephone number) and one of their advisors will discuss the matter with you.

Please not, we are instructed not to enter into correspondence with you at this sate but refer you to Intrum Justitia. You can contact them on the number above or at the address on previous correspondence.

Stop fretting over it. It doesn't have your name on it. It is not connected with you. Stop worrying.

Nothing, you've advised them the debt is not connected to you, that should be good enough.

If they continue with litigation, you have sufficient grounds to defend, and counterclaim, should you require advice with that, please post back here.

One other point, please consider reporting them to both OFT and your MP.

Thank you for your reply. I really appreciate it! Thank you!

What should I say when I write/email the OFT and my local MP?

Is it better to write or email?

Should I include my name, address,. ect?

Thanks

Yes, include your name & address within your covering letter, send both the original letter and the letter threatening litigation, also include your letter informing them you have no association what so ever with the alleged debt.
