Spam from Me

For you guys here who got a spam invite "from" me yesterday, I apologize. I had to sign up for StumbleUpon again and it sent invites to everyone in my address book. I'm not happy about it either. I'm sorry. I hate spam too.

I'm glad you said something...I just saw it in my junk mailbox!

No harm done, thanks for the warning though!:-6

How would StumbleUpon gain access to your address book??

I don't know how they do it, Spot, but it offers to send invites to all your contacts and there's a little box to uncheck if you don't want that. I thought I unchecked the box but apparently I didn't.

I wondered what that was about. That's ok though. No harm done.

So, by me opening it, did I give them access to my address book?

No, not at all, Abbey.
