I was playing one of the tap games (either Tap Ranch or Tap Fish) and clicked through to their special offers to earn game bucks.
One said Win a Best Buy gift card, and displayed the Best Buy logo, so I thought it was Best Buy.
I entered my email address, real name and home address, then read the permissions before clicking send. I didn't like them so I backed out and realized it wasn't legit.
Unfortunately it gathered my info anyway, even though I backed out. Now I'm getting 10-20 spams a day at my formerly spam-free email address, and they address me by my real name.
Just a heads up, in case it appears in other games as well.
