A gym owner has been left "traumatised" after the DVLA sent him logbooks for a car he doesn't own with a shocking racist slur.
Marvin Greaves said he received a letter addressed to 'Marvin Black N****r P***y' last Wednesday and a second message to 'Marvin Chocolate N****r Greaves' yesterday.
The 40-year-old said he does not own a car nor has a licence, and believes the vehicle might have been stolen and registered under his name.
The dad-of-six, from Oldham, Greater Manchester, has questioned how the letter was allowed to leave the government agency's office.
The DVLA say they are urgently investigating and that the letters were "malicious and fraudulent applications" by a third party, which will be passed onto the police.
Marvin said: "I opened the letter and I noticed it was a logbook. On the letterhead, it said 'Marvin Black N****r P***y'.
"When I read it, I was traumatised by it. I was very stressed and depressed over it. It was an official letter, brown envelope, and it came to my gym address.
"I'm looking to take this further."
Marvin, who is known in the area for helping young people off the streets, said the incident has left him stressed and is now questioning how the perpetrator was able to get his details.
He said: "I've been feeling so stressed about it. It's racial. I'm black myself. It's definitely racist and somebody has authorised that for it to be sent to my gym address.
"I was wondering how it could even be sent out. Even if someone's done it online, someone's got to authorise it.
"I rang up the DVLA and told them I got this logbook. I don't own the vehicle or the registration number and don't know anything about it.
"I said I wasn't too bothered about that but what I was bothered about was what it says on the form.
"They went quiet and said they'd take me off the system and could I please terminate that paper straight away. I said I wouldn't and I'd put the phone down.
"Someone's got to authorise it and do the checks. It's either a stolen vehicle or someone's been pulled. It's got to be someone who knows me, who knows my address."
He added: "I'm a community advocate for the people in my community. I get them off the streets, I get them into the gym and keep them positive. I sort a lot of problems out in Oldham and I've got a high profile for doing things like that.
"For me receiving this, it's hit rock bottom. The system's failed me by letting this [be sent] out."
Social media users reacted in horror to the offensive mail - branding it "absolutely vile".
One person wrote on Facebook : "Absolutely disgusting, how did that get out of the DVLA?"
Another posted: "How that letter was allowed to be even put in a envelope is beyond me."
A third added: "This is absolutely vile behaviour", while a fourth said: "This should never have happened!"
A DVLA spokesperson said: "These malicious and fraudulent applications were made by an as yet unknown third party and we have removed this information from our records. We are urgently investigating and will pass our findings onto the Police."
A spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said the incident does not appear to have yet been reported.
