Why do people keep commenting my status with links like?

Question

http://lnk.ms/063Ts
http://lnk.ms/0614d

What are they, I am afraid to follow the link because I don't want it to phish into any of my accounts, So can you tell me what they are?

Answer 1

WOAH THERE WATEVER U DO DONT GO TO THAT WEBSITE!! its a phising website, meaning it looks like myspace but its not. So wat happens is u go to that website and log onto myspace (but its not really myspace) and it gets ur username and password and then it automaticly comments all of ur friends status's with that website. Then YOUR friends read the status and go to the website, and the same thing happens. It also makes it your status so that YOU cant change your own status! U were smart not to go there, unlike me who was stupid enough to try it! If u wanna do something about it, I suggest reporting it to tom! Gooood luck!

Answer 2

Because they are making money off of this.



The bottom link is an Iq test and to get your score you type in your cellphone number, but by doing that you have to pay $10 a month for this.



The other one is a myspace phish and then they hack your real account and advertise it on the status saying to go to the bottom link, this is how theyre making money off of it.



Just tell everybody not to.

Answer 3

Well that's funny. IE is reporting the site as unsafe. For anyone else beware. The first one does really look like Myspace but it's fake, cause it doesn't have myspace.com in the url. So it's a dead give away. The second one is an IQ Test. By the way you do relise that you can set your Myspace prefs. so that when someone comments you, you can filter the spam out.

Answer 4

The first on goes to a fake myspace log in screen. Do not go there and try to log in. If you do then they will have your account information.



The second goes to a site that will sign you up for text message alerts on your cell phone and will charge you around $10 a month.



Do not go to either link and click on anything. If you can remove them then do it.

Answer 5

myspace now shortens links posted by other ppl if they are long. so if the original link was like http://www.reallylongurlhere/yesthisisreallylong then they shorten it to lnk.ms/whatever so it will fit. not saying its safe but that is what myspace is doing. myspace does have that external warning page to warn you before leaving myspace, so just read that before going any further.

Answer 6

bypass for your purposes settings and also you'll see links as an decision there. click Edit Settings, then added Permissions and uncheck submit to streams. you could not provide up it from posting for your wall, you could delete them manually, regrettably.

Answer 7

the first is a pinishing website

the other is an IQ test thing.
