Was it actually from the Eisley account or a clever imposter? _________________ |

Well, that totally sucks. I just changed the password because of this, and I definitely see the outgoing bulletin on myspace. Blah. The link goes to darkelites.org: Admin Name:Matthew Joseph Admin Organization:darkelites.org Admin City:Farmington Hills Admin State/Province:MI Admin Postal Code:48331 Admin Country:US Admin Phone:+1.2486610927 Admin Email:mathkid1234@hotmail.com Anyone know him? 
Edit: Hooray, you can delete bulletins! It's been nuked, thanks for the heads up. _________________ |

This is a good read http://www.dwire.org/2006/07/17/evil-webmasters-the-myspace-money-trai n/ here's an interesting couple of paragraphs "To gain these multiple accounts these “evil” webmasters use a method known as phising. MySpace has many flaws, one which includes flash inclusion. So the MySpace webmasters will craft a special SWF that contains a simple line of code getURL. This command redirects a client’s browser to a given site. So now a webmaster can make there own PHP phising site that looks makes it look like the user got logged out and her or she needs to re-login. The transition is so unnoticeable that you can only spot it if you glance at the address bar. The biggest problem with this now is that a kid hacking group has released a phising package that comes with everything needed to phish myspace accounts. This file is widely available which makes this case even more unfortunate. So now a 15 year old kid has a script to steal another popular MySpace member’s account. He or she then posts a bulletin containing this SWF which redirects a user to their website which looks identical to the MySpace error login screen. Once you type in your sensitive information your then redirected to the real MySpace before you even known what happened. A kid posts on a hacking forum that he quote received 4,000 accounts within 30 minutes of posting a bulletin" _________________ "Religions have started on lesser revelations" - investor on MarketWatch.com |

i had the gospel of the spagetti in my profile once.. but I got rid of it. all my friends have it ... i guess they don't know. oh but i didn't get that bulletin. but I haven't been on myspace very much lately because of work. _________________ This next song is about a dragon.<3 Back in the day Eisley commented on my myspace with the following: 'Somebody is sure you love "the cat's pajama's". thanks for everything no matter what that means  '

And if you are goin to take the time to hack their myspace, they might know a bit about the group. Lame/scary that people actually do that crap that chad00 posted a link to. |
