since a few days I get spam mails to my STO mailadress. This mailadress is ONLY used for STO!!!
Did you have a data leak? Did C3PO copy the STO database and sold it to some strange spamwriters?
A few of the subjects were the following:
"Coca Cola GB ® /International® Award Promotion !!!"
"[GSN Suspected Spam] BMW Awards Notification"
Please give a statement!
There has not been any data leak from what I know, and honestly the least I would be worry about is an email account if there was . People can randomly email based off of a lot of things, it's not uncommon if you use a free email service to sooner or later get spam mail. It happens. I get it every now and then in my private email account that is never used for anything except 2 places. However, your e-mail is never sold to any 3rd party places. (Unless I read the TOS wrong which I don't believe I did)

The mail don't look proffesional. So I don't think they've been sold. It's not a freemailer. Its my own domain, and I know the "random" spam to webmaster@ and admin@ etc. But it cleary the sto mailadress (looks like "justforsto@bla". Its not used anywhere else. So a dataleak would be a possibility...
Perhaps other members could just check their spam for these Subjects ;-)
Atari had a breech before the sale, or they might have just sold their clients email addresses for money, but there's been no issues since then. And someone who joined in Jan wouldn't have been part of the atari breech. I changed my email address with ftp and have not gotten a single spam email. I have gotten some sto promotional emails, but I don't consider them spam.

Not a single spam message for me (yet).
