Email leak?

[GetKnitted]

Hi MNHQ,

After entering the Toyota comp. I got a random email from GNHQ ([email protected]) !? with the subject line What's the plural of Prius? thanking me for entering their competition for a "Revitive circulation booster". Is that a new name for cinema tickets? Have you updated your privacy policy to allow third parties access to my email address?

Please could you explain? Thanks!

Hi GetKnitted.

This sounds most odd, we do share an account with Gransnet called Wufoo that can't be accessed by third parties. We have mailed them and are waiting to hear back.

Would you mind forwarding the mail you received to contactus @ mumsnet.com please.

Apologies for this, it is an internal error on our part rather then anything sinister, your info has not been shared with anyone else, the forms and auto replies have just been muddled - it looks like a technical glitch but we will update you when we hear back from them.
