Security Reminder
December 20th, 2007 | Published in Google Orkut
This week, the orkut team discovered that a user had exploited a bug in our scrapbook feature. As a result, many of you likely received scraps from friends of yours that they actually didn't send, and friends may have received scraps that appeared to come from you.
The orkut team responded quickly, and worked late into the night to fix the underlying issue and contain the spread of these scraps.
We believe that this action has been effectively stopped and you should no longer receive any more of these unintended messages. We appreciate your understanding in this case and hope that this did not create too much of an inconvenience for you or your fellow orkut friends.
