The social networking Web site Tagged.com has adopted reforms on the use of invitation e-mails after being accused of essentially stealing the e-mail addresses of some 60 million Internet users, state Attorney General Andrew Cuomo announced yesterday.

Cuomo charged in July that Tagged.com sent out e-mails to members’ contact lists, asking recipients to view private photos posted by their friends.

But when the recipients tried to access the photos, they were asked to sign up for the site, and the e-mail addresses in their contact lists were then lifted to send out more solicitation e-mails, Cuomo said.

Tagged now will not access contacts without members’ informed permission.
