Sounds like a scam.  Getting details about your car and personal details of the owner.  The DVLA shouldn't be sending that...

I don't think this is a scam, as I got a letter from VMC once after I'd sold a car to a colleague, who then changed the registration plate to a personal one.

Not sure why they would send the letter to the "same" keeper when the registration plate is changed though.
