On the kind of mission like you run into in a high level TF, where there are lots and lots of foes, the Tank is likely to go past his aggro limit. He will alert the foes, but then exceed the aggro limit, so they will then go looking for the next available target. It sounds like you were it.
LOCAL MAN! The most famous hero of all. There are more newspaper stories about me than anyone else. "Local Man wins Medal of Honor." "Local Man opens Animal Shelter." "Local Man Charged with..." (Um, forget about that one.)

I saw the same thing in Praetoria last night ... the bosses (Swordmasters) would make a beeline for the dom no matter who attacked it along the way ... it wasn't over aggro cap, the dom hadn't even attacked - it was like watching the Terminator going after poor Tweedle Connor, nothing could stop it. I think it was even out of normal mob perception range, the boss would cross from the far side of a spawn past everyone else. We joked about it, the dom didn't think it was too funny.
I had this happen on my empath during a Barracuda SF. The ambushes would head directly for me, running right past the scrapper, brute and tank.

Ambushes are different. If it's a 'targeted' ambush, they will even go after a hidden stalker.

Nope. And, based on my experience, this kind of thing has never happened.

The amount of aggro mine are grabbing atm is unbelieveable,
As a test on a Lgtf last night i stood still not attacking and had no auras on whilst Tanker taunted the mobs they then made a b-line straight for me and this happened on a few occasions?
Just wondering if there was some sort of bug going on at the moment?
Did make me laugh that i was better at herding the mobs by standing still doing nothing, when the tanker was running about and taunting everything as quickly as he could.
P.s. this wasn't a pug team either the team i was on is a regular team so we all know whats what and how to do our jobs.
Too many 50's to list here's a few you may know.
