Case Study #1 - AOL messages
This was reported to me by Maria.
She was on AOL when she saw these messages:
Resident Evilnes: New
Hidden Bank! Receive up to 1,000,000 neopoints! (note
from maria: the url of the link was www.geocities.com/d00d55555/hiddenbank.html
Hydr0blade: I have 15 programs!
20k each! The website for 265 programs is 200k! Im me for
more details! The hacking program is 150k! ( NO IT IS NOT
WEBCRACK )
Well I checked it out
and visited the so called hidden bank. Let's see,
just another fake login screen.
The only thing that drives people to falling for these scams
are GREED GREED GREED! So don't be GREEDY. Earn
money the RIGHT way. Cause no one is going to help
you if YOU FELL FOR a fake login in screen AFTER ALL the
WARNINGS that were given to you. So save yourself
some trouble, be smart, don't fall for this type of stuff.
^_^
Now onto the 15 hacking
programs. Well don't do it!!! Neopets Staff
aren't stupid. They're going to figure it out that
you were using hacking programs to get an unusual amounts
of high neopoints. So you might as well kiss your
account goodbye. PLUS what gurantee do you have that
those hacking programs don't have viruses in them???
I mean, you give the person 200,000 NP, then you install
a totally foregin software onto your computer. There's
no telling WHAT this software will do to your system.
So be smart, don't be GREEDY and ignore all those instant
messenges that try to earn you Neopoints the easy way.
