Quill and Feather Pub [Public] / Someone has had a data leak or sold off private info
« Last post by Lynn on Today at 06:56:39 PM »I got an email from Elite Authors tonight, and I wouldn't have thought anything of it, just another (scammy?) business trying to sell publishing services, except for the fact that it had my legal name attached to an email address I use for a few of my author accounts that is private.
As in I don't use the address regularly and the few places I do use it shouldn't have anything to do with Elite Authors. Unless I'm mistaken about the kind of place Elite Authors is. It claims I subscribed, which of course, is bullsh*t.
I use the address at Kobo, used to use it at All Romance Ebooks before it went bankrupt, and at Createspace (which we know is no longer in existence). Those had my legal name tied to my account (and the email address in question). And that's it.
Disappointing and concerning.
