Email spam from Huddler

[beth]

I just received an email spam from Huddler (the first that I noticed) with an ad for spas. I assume this is the Huddler.com associated with SWF.com It seems that in addition to the ads at SWF.com, the spam cookies associated with this sites ads, our personal email addresses are being used to spam SWF.com members' personal email accounts??
This really is not cool. The whole spam, and ad spam cooking tracking from this site is not cool. Not at all.

I have sent this to Scott to review.

I am getting clarification from Huddler on this. Seems highly unusual.

This is from Huddler. I apologize to those members who were effected.

Hi, Scott.
I just spoke to an Engineer who looked into the matter -- apparently, someone inadvertently imported the email addresses for 12 Saltwaterfish.com members into the distribution list for Green Options. As a result, those SWF members received an offer this morning that was supposed to go only to Green Options recipients.
On behalf of everyone at Huddler, I sincerely apologize. As soon as we discovered the problem, we scrubbed Green Options' list of any Saltwaterfish.com members -- the sponsored message for SWF members that promotes Tropical Fish Hobbyist magazine will go out shortly.
If you have any additional questions, please let me know.
-- Walter.
