I get these types of things nearly daily since everyone mistakenly assumes they have my gmail account, single first initial and common last name. Many services don't require you to confirm e-mails, this is the problem. My apple ID account was created by someone else and they set the security questions and if you "forget" all the answers you cannot reset them online! Only services I've seen that handled this properly are gmail and snapchat which send a verification e-mail to the entered address (for gmail its the secondary) and there is a link that you can click indicating your e-mail should not be associated with this account.
