I am getting mortgage consolidation offers with my ex-husbands name and data at my address. What does it mean?

I have been divorced for 3 years. My ex bought a house with a mortgage at that time. I moved to a different state 2 years ago. I am getting credit offers in his name at my new address. Some of them include information such as his mortgage payments.
What does this mean to me and is there anything I should do?

Answer:
It means his name is on a bunch of mailing lists. The information is public record (although it could be outdated) and lending institutions get the info from Title companies for direct marketing purposes.

Should have no affect on you other than filling up your mail box. I suggest recycling instead of throwing it in the trash.
The right thing to do would be to notify your ex-husband that you are getting mail with his name and his info on it so that he can fix it. Guess it depends on your personal integrity what you will actually do.
I would check out your credit reports to see if he has been obtaining credit and/or loans using you as a co-signer. I presume he has the information required such as your social security number and new address.
