thewayneGot an email a couple of nights ago from Tivo that their email processing service had been hacked and my email address had been compromised, so be on the lookout for more spam email. What a surprise. Today, Walgreens sent a similar email.
*sigh*
Both assured me that no other information was compromised and that it was a third-party email system that was only used for email marketing campaigns. We'll see.
[EDIT]
The instant after I posted this message, I got the following from 1-800-Flowers:
One of our email service providers, Epsilon, has informed us that we
are among a group of companies affected by a data breach that may
have exposed your email address to unauthorized third parties.
It's important to know that this incident did not
involve other account or personally identifiable information.
