WARNING: Some Have MySpace Profiles Without Knowing It!
Beware! Your private pictures might have been stolen and used without your permission by an online imposter on MySpace!
Well, the exact thing happened to an unfortunate girl named Katie from North Texas.
It only takes a few clicks for someone to steal a person’s photos and this means that anyone who has an internet access can become your imposter.
Katie said that she never thought that such things will happen to an average and normal girl like her. But she was very wrong. She found out about the imposter when one of here friend calls here saying that she had found a stranger who has a MySpace profile which contains Katie’s private and personal photos.
When the matter was reported to MySpace, they immediately shut down the bogus. MySpace officials admit that Katie’s issue is not an isolated incident and recommends everyone making their profile private so only those who are allowed can access the profile.
Well, that’s 1 case solved. Another 126 million to go…………………………….

MySpace sues Scott Richter
Spamming used to be one of the most delicate problems with MySpace few days back because the security system was not really full proof which they claim to have repaired by now. But there was a time when the spammers like Scott Richter used to send more than 100 millions of spam messages to the MySpace users everyday. After the users started complaining against this MySpace sued this person in the year of 2007. Now he has to pay about 4.9 millions for the damages and another 1.2 millions for the legal expenses. This is surely a lesson for the others who are into spamming business.
