Sorry, a bit of extra googling dug this up with a statement from Handster (I'm eating lunch, so sue me for not doing this before):
http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/25/is-your-android-app-on-blackberry-app-world-without-you-knowing/ Double check whether or not you received the notification from them (and whether or not this is even necessary from the T&Cs). After that, if it still looks dodgy, ping a note to https://twitter.com/#!/asaunders and he may be able to assist / comment. Even if the T&Cs allow it but you weren't notified I would raise it to him as it's not great press.
