So the guy that had the IP before might have had an open ntp server?
Yup that would be my bet.

..that would most likely be an exercise in futility..
As, unfortunately, would that!

In front of it there's just the cable modem.
So you're good for a test.
Remove pfSense.
Connect a PC to the modem, and set up the connection.
Do the same test again.Surprise ......

Apologies for my late reply!
The IP does change from time to time, but usually over a long period (a few months). I've received such notices from the ISP for many months too, though I'm not sure if it was the same or not when they first started emailing me.
That said, I never thought someone else having the IP before could have caused it. It's the only plausible explanation that I've come across and could well explain it.
I did think to contact my ISP, but they're totally useless at the best of times. Will be switching to another provider within a couple of weeks, so will see if it continues after that.
Also, just a thank you to everyone who offered help
