    It's not your debt, so don't worry about it.

    Just return any further letters as "not known at this address".

    They now have a bite, expect a lot more and a short sharp lesson in communicating with a debt collector ...
    If only you had put it back in the box.
    Be happy...;)

    If you get mail for someone else then write return to sender and ignore it.

    Nothing to do with you.
