In the particular one that came to mind if I recall correctly was a badly configured distro list that let anyone reply to it. Normally broadcast lists like that would be reserved for people on a special comms team, but the permissions didn’t get restricted properly.

There’s a way in most email environments to setup a mail flow rule that will convert any email with over x number of users CC’d to BCC.
