I've been having the same issue. Someone's been using an address of mine
to attempt to sign up for Facebook, changed the email they have on their
mortgage, etc. I thought it was a scam at first, but now just seems like
stupidity. The mortgage was straightened after a quick call to the bank who
couldn't confirm anything, but seemed reasonably sure it was a simple typo
issue.

Don't attribute to malice that which can be attributed to stupidity, I
suppose.

I can't decide which to put this down to, it is to weak for malice and been
going on to long and doesn't feel like stupidity.

Do you have any friends that like messing with you?

Not really, and the sites that are being used aren't really right for
that.

In the last couple of months it has been used to sign up for a
number

Add the address to stopforumspam.com  It wont do anything for the
ones already signed up, but may cut down on the ones yet to come.  SFS has
dramatically reduced spam signups on the little forum that I manage.


You have to provide an email address and IP address to register
someone, I don't want to register my email address and I've no idea what IP
they are coming from.

Shame as it might have helped.
