If I were a more malicious type I could get this families passport numbers, DOBs and other personal details simply by using the information in the e-mail. It further concerns me who might have got e-mails with my bookings!
The same thing happened to me last year but I was sent the details of a couple. I contacted BA, they apologised said that they had made an error but couldn't figure out how as our names were nothing alike and neither were our EC membership numbers. They assured me that as far as they could tell no-one had access to my details.
Give them a call and report it but it's disappointing to read that this has happened to someone else.
