Forums: Village pump → Account phishing spam to my Wowpedia email?

Today I received a WoW account phishing email to the email address I set up specifically for use on this site (via my own domain and a forwarding service). This is the first such email I've ever had related to WoW, and I'm rather concerned that it's arrived to an email address I don't use anywhere but here. I was wondering if someone could give me an explanation for why this might have happened? Thanks.

Not sure how that would be possible. E-mail addresses are not revealed by the wiki software unless you revealed them yourself. --PcjWowpedia wiki manager (TDrop me a line!C207,729 contributions and counting) 14:46, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
Checked with Curse, they are not doing anything with your e-mail address. I suspect you may have malware or did in fact use the e-mail somewhere else. --PcjWowpedia wiki manager (TDrop me a line!C207,729 contributions and counting) 15:38, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

I got the same thing today, its wowpedia at mydomain dot com and I have only ever used it here Scotepi (talk) 20:28, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Curse is checking with their technical team to see if there is something going on with data getting out. --PcjWowpedia wiki manager (TDrop me a line!C207,729 contributions and counting) 20:32, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
