I have a similar issue, though it's not related to Gmail. I registered an obvious joke email address from a free service. I'm not going to type it here, but imagine something similar to "fakeaddress@example.com". (I could have used a gmail address for the same purpose.) Occasionally someone will fill out an online form that asks for an email address, and decide to use an obvious fake, assuming that any emails will go into the proverbial bit bucket. That's why I sometimes get emails about someone's health insurance or airline tickets. It can get a bit frustrating when online support forms insist on asking for account information when the whole point is that I don't have an account. (Yes, I know I set myself up for this.)
