Soon as I woke up today and noticed my mailbox, I was shocked to see lot of bounced emails, responses & conformations from lot of known people.
I do have remembrance of allowing Jaxtr service access to my email address-book sometimes in past where I selected invitations for limited few friends.
This storm of mass-invitation to just everyone was not expected this morning. I will really like to know if this has happened to anyone else. For the movement its more important to modify my personal account credentials to secure my accounts and privacy of my known contacts.
This incident has really shaken me and made me more cautious to allow various service providers access to personal contacts, and I also apologies to those who must have felt offended.
Too bad this happened on Monday, I won't be able to investigate this further till Weekend start, I am just worried because I have a real busy week to keep up with for now.

This happened to me as well. I thought it was just emailing those i selected, but instead it emailed everyone in my addressbook.
Now i have to go change my passwords and hope it didnt cache the addresses it raided...
