Depends upon what they are saying -- if it is along the lines of "Your IVA has been mis-sold and we can get you debt free in 12 months" .. then, basically, yes, it is a scam of sorts -- they will be offering to make you bankrupt ( for a fee, of course).
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

Speka to your IP and send them the letter. Avoid these companies as Foggy is completely correct.

Ignore them recently registered company with only £100 assets they definately trying for a fast buck scheme at best they gonna charge you to to refer your case to another company.
more than likely a fake scam company ticks all the boxes.

Hi. I received one of these letters too today.

It says in the letter....

"We would be grateful if you would call us as we have matters to discuss with you concerning a legal issue. The matters we have to discuss may benefit you financially" Then a Freephone number is given.

We've received one to from this company. It says to contact them "concerning a legal matter that you should be aware of. This matter does not refer to debt collection or payment protection insurance." There is no company address but the post mark was S****horpe. I'm not ringing them. As it has been said, if it's important, they will contact us again properly.
