Has Flyertalk been hacked?

So I've just received an spam email containing a virus word document to my email address but with my flyertalk username as the subject and name of the attachment.

As far as I can remember this is the only place that I use this username and that email combination.

Have you been hacked? That information could be obtained by taking control of your computer (or flyertalk reading device)

I'll move this thread over from BA to the technical support forum.
