I just received my first spam to my LiveJournal email address. *sigh*

Edit: Apparently, a bunch of LiveJournal users have received the same spam. The one I got was from "Sky" <sky@msn.com> and was entitled "hey its sky FREE STUFF LOOK MAN".

If it was from "Sky," I think a large percentage of LJ did. I got it at both my own address ([livejournal.com profile] jerzeegrrl) and for [livejournal.com profile] lj_espanol (being a permanent community, lj_espanol@REMOVE.livejournal.com is a valid address).

"Sky" spam

It was indeed.

Thanks for mentioning your experience as well. At least that means he wasn't targetting me specifically and I don't have to look so hard for places where my address could have leaked.

I wonder where they did get it from, then--scraping userinfo pages?
