The ISP sent a notice in an email or what? I’ve never heard of this happening.

The ISP probably received an abuse complaint by an MPAA enforcement agency for some IP, and basically transferred it to their customer.

Some big ISPs probably get enough of these to have automated the process, hence the difference of minutes.

I've gotten a few warning popups from my ISP along with threatening letters in the mail. I didn't react at all and nothing happened.
