Is someone breaking any type of law if they send letters and other correspondence in your name and using your old address? Basically someone pretending to be you?

Its going to be hard for me to prove it as it was done from the email address we used to use when we had a small business together. He's pretty much said to a finance company that i bought him out of the business when i actually just walked out on it last year and that im taking financial control and responsibility for all debts which obviously im not. Ive since emailed the finance company stating that it was him pretending to be me but seeing as he's trying to fuck me up i thought i would return the deed :-)

Might be something Computer Misuse Act in there if he's accessing a computer system and the attempt is unauthorised. Particularly if he is reading the mailbox to check for replies.
If you shared the box and he had legitimate access then this isn't applicable.
After that there may be some financial misrepresentation thing somewhere which says that you can't speak on behalf of you. Obtaining funds by deceit or something if he's clearing the loans using a claim of your collateral which is false.
Perhaps just deception?
Not sure really. Needs legal advice.
