Folks, As some here may know, long time ago I went by the online alias of Soapdog and my email was soap...@mac.com. I created that email when iTools and MacOS 9 were new things and went thru dotMac, mobileMe and now iCloud. Some hours ago, I received a call from my father saying that my account was spamming him. I decided to check and indeed, my account had a spam email in the outbox for every contact in the iCloud contact list. This was not spoofing, someone actually sent email thru my account. Keep in mind that I am paranoid. The iCloud is only accessed by my iDevices and my Mac box. I don't use mail.app. I checked the headers in the message and it appears that the message was sent using the mobileMe webmail client from Japan.
I went to the online apple forums and saw that I am not alone in my problem. There are other users facing the same thing so I suspect that some amount of iCloud accounts have been hacked at the source. My machine is free of virus and trojans and no one has my credentials. I already changed my password. So, I apologize for the emails that some of you guys received from my old account. For those using iCloud, I tell you to check your account, you may have been hacked too.
