CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) -- Online travel agency Orbitz has notified law enforcement authorities about a recent security breach that has allowed spammers to obtain customers' e-mail addresses.

"A small number of customers have informed us that they have received spam or junk e-mail from an unknown party that apparently used unauthorized and/or illegal means to obtain their e-mail addresses used with Orbitz," spokeswoman Carol Jouzaitis said in a statement.

There was no evidence customer password or other account information was compromised, she said.
