You're never completely anonymous online.

It's amazing how many people don't realize just how much of their "personal and private" information is freely available on the web and even more of it is available for small fees, all of which is totally legal to achieve. Zabasearch, Peoplesearch, not to mention expending the effort to contact public records buildings directly, it's astounding how much information can be obtained. Peoplesearch nets me addresses and phone numbers for at least a decade back, any time the person I am looking for signed a lease, received a utility bill, etc, it's on there.

Fortunately, the letter did not include a formal "No joke" disclaimer, nor a one week deadline, so you appear to be alright.
If I had more money I could tell for sure though.
