Forget Stealing Credit Cards - Myspace Logins
I was checking out my favorite social site, MySpace.com, when I noticed my little brother's girlfriend posts a bulletin about "Check out this girl's pics". Now, for those of you who haven't been on Myspace, each user can post a bulletin to all the members with their little friend's network.
So I click on the link to the girl's page, which happens to be this page here. I thought "weird...looks exactly like Myspace" ...then realized 2 seconds later that it's probably someone stealing myspace logins.
Now you're probably asking: "Why?"
Well, if you have a bunch of logins/passwords, you could do a ton of bulletin spamming via Myspace. PLUS...you'll have a ton of emails to spam as well.
My brother's girlfriend is not computer savvy enough to do something like this (she's only 16), so my guess is someone has also written a program to automatically post bulletins on her behalf.
Be on the look out if you do go on Myspace.

the link is down already, you didn't screen capture, did you?
awww..no..i didn't. Oh well.
Shame, this looks like a nasty way to spam. I wonder if MySpace will react to this?
