I can't figure out what they would get out of it, unless they're just using it as a convenient phishing vector because there are some stupid people out there.
For example, there are organizations that will send you scary threatening letters when your license is ready to expire, seemingly indicating that you MUST renew through an agent and it will cost you to do so. Renewing your license just involves going online and completing the "Yes I Want To Renew" form.
