Snapchat, just weeks after its Christmas security breach, has apologized for the surge in spam that occurred over the weekend.
“We heard several complaints over the weekend about an increase in Snap Spam on our service. We want to apologize for any unwanted Snaps and let you know that our team is working to resolve the issue,” Snapchat said in a statement.
The company claims that, to its knowledge, the spam is not related to the security breach that occurred during the holidays due to the Find Friends.
The company's security team advises users to adjust the app's settings to choose who they will accept Snaps from, using the option: "Only my friends."
