This "Office Supply Scam" is quite old and for some reason Light Bulbs and Copier supplies are the most common items sent. The good news is that if you truly did not order them you may have just gotten yourself some light bulbs for free.
Check out the link from the FTC. If for some reason the link gets redacted just search for "FTC Office Supply Scams"

If you only allowed them to send you a FREE Catalog and you got light bulbs with and invoice you can treat that as unordered merchandise. If they continue to harass you, let them know that you will be contacting the FTC and the States Attorney General.

The place where I am employed were also sent a box of lightbulbs (that were not ordered) and then received a bill for $498.00. I did an internet search and found out this is a "normal" practice for them. It took a few weeks, but the final resolution was they closed the account and we have zero balance.
