Justr received from uknewsletter AT espotting.com :

Dear Brian **********

At Espotting, we are constantly updating our systems to ensure that they are of the highest quality. On the evening of Thursday 27 January, we updated our security systems. As a result of our new security system, you will need to reset your password the next time you log-in to the following Espotting Account:

Account Name: ********
Account ID: ***

(both supplied in email)

How to reset your password:

With full instructions on how to reactivate the account.

Whilst not giving out the password - 2 out of three might be useful!

So as they say in the opening para - upgrading the security ;)

This is obviously quite a big f*** up as I know 4 people that have been sent this already. All advertisers or previous advertisers.

Anyone else - wonder how wide this email went? Couldn't see anything obvious in the header with regards to a spoof email.
