Subversive MySpace Advertising, Part 2

Uncategorized

Simple. Here is how to do it.

  1. Create fake profile, and use hot chick photo as profile photo.
  2. Amass small friends list, using something like myfriendbot.
  3. Come up with moderately believable messages like the one below.
  4. Collect $1-$2 per sign-up that occurs on the landing page.

So simple, but kind of clever. As someone who is in the on-line ad industry, this was an easy scam to spot. Hell, if you have used the Internet before, this is an easy scam to spot. However, with 75,000,000 horny people on MySpace, and with little or no cost beyond some man hours to get something like this going…it makes sense. And money.
