View Full Version : lol, MSN theft
If you receive a message from a friend on msn messenger who is off line and the message has this site in it,
http://newyear.piclooks.com/
DO NOT PUT IN YOUR USERNAME AND PASSWORD.
It is not licensed by Microsoft and it will steal your MSN.
Also,
if you look at the terms and conditions,
it says,
We may temporarily access your MSN account to do a combination
of the following:
1. Send Instant Messages to your friends promoting this site.
2. Introduce new entertaining sites to your friends via Instant Messages.
and it also says,
This page is not affiliated with or operated by Microsoft(tm) or MSN Network(tm).

I think Bao got his stolen too because all his friends were deleted and my friend fomr aussie (rapeking) was telling me that Bao would get on all the time and talk to him and they were really good friends and he deleted him from his friends list. Any relations?

I was asking him if he was sending me scam links,he said "Dude i get one of those too" after random chatting,he told me that he thinks its a new virus.
I told him it could be fake advertisement;
"i logged in and was like y would my friend send this 2 me"

One of the 10,000 reasons why i use Yahoo. What if i put in a Cox or a Gmail account in there?
Eh... if you're stupid enough to type your password and username in, then you deserve to have it stolen.
If you change your password, it will all go away.
*sigh*
Noobs.
*sigh*

Its the MSN messenger.
And yahoo sucks.
I have about 10 msn friends that do that.
3 of them do it at the same time.
another two do
then 4
then 1 by itself.

MSN is outdated. All the "Cool" clients are outdated. Real men use Pidgin. Open source so you can mod the themes, and it runs every client imaginable. Including IRC, Yahoo, Google Talk, MSN, ICQ and more.
yeah, jluke has this crap. keeps sending me links over xbox xD
when you get a message it isn't jluke talking *sigh*
Its a bot that logs into his account because he submitted his username/password to that query and they spam people to promote the website to promote their profit..
Not a bad idea... actually.
They are making money off of that spam... Quite ingenious.
