Hey that is what is also happening with my app as well. My local notifications are getting fired in below scenerios :
1. user has deleted the app

2. Using same app on same device but with different user name, they getting alerts for last logged in user.

-Actually its UILocalNotification behave, we have to cancel them else IOS retain them for at least some time(not sure how long) when app is deleted and they were scheduled by the app at deletion time and were not canceled.

So always make sure when ever your app install happens,keep a check & cancel all scheduled notifications.

like

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions

    if(//its a fresh install){

     [[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications];

    }


    }

cancelAllLocalNotifications will cancel all existing notifications.

Hope it will help.
