I don't get it. If you generated it offline how can you receive transactions?

In any case, if you receive random bitcoins, never sent a joint transaction with that input. Use coin control so you never mix your coins with those coins. Since they are dust, just ignore it. If you randomly recieved a lot more btc, thats another story.

If what you are saying is true, then it sounds like coinb.in might have a bug in their offline address generator.  Perhaps the aren't using properly random private key generation and they generated the same address for someone else?  Until I understood what happened, I'd probably not use that address for anything at all (and probably stop using coinb.in).

Try this: send inputs 0.0015 to its own address to one output. Add a public message: link to this topic.

This suggests that the source of the "address leak" was simply you using/re-using the address. Addresses are only kept private until they are used. Once a transaction has been successfully confirmed on the blockchain, the address is publicly known. You cannot prevent people from spamming your address, generation offline makes no difference.
