My posting of this is not to embarrass Campaign Monitor, but to notify users of Campaign Monitor that you should be vigilant about your lists and reputation if you use the service. It is possible that either
- You email list have been compromised
- Your reputation might be effected if spam was sent as from you by the hackers using your account.
Per the site, the hacker imported their own lists, and managed to send spam to those lists and in some cases the lists already in the account.
A lock down of the services has been instituted at this time to prevent other unauthorized accesses.
Please contact your account managers at Campaign Monitor if you have questions, but they have already contacted all account owners
Full details can be found here:
We feel for the staff at Campaign Monitor during this time and hope they can quickly find resolution to this issue.
