WTF Falco????

Random irrelevance that just didn't fit into other forums. Talk about anything.

WTF Falco????

Post by animangaman690 »

Today i was on facebook and then i get this message from Falco:
hey Jacob, isn't that you?! :D:D http://redir.ec/IhateFuckingSpam!

i think its a phishing filter so DON'T go to the link. I said i wasn't falling for it and i didn't receive anything back.
I still don't know why Falco sent it but i think it was a joke, I just wanted to know if he sent it to any one else. I'm not
pissed or anything, i thought it was funny, but i would like to know.

SPAM, someone should delete this thread so we don't have any chaos rifters becoming accidental victims of a phishing attack


edit:

Sorry just realized you were posting it because YOU think it is a phishing scam (which it is). Falco obviously did not intentionally send this, he must have had his FaceBook account hacked. Sorry Falco! Time to change your password to something other than dre@mc@st :lol:

Oh yeah, delete it... Falco totally didn't send it, it was spam from some kind of bot or something

I got almost the same message, so I'd say it probly is a spambot or falco transformed into a 12-yr old

I clicked on it just to see what is. I can't believe how stupid people can be. The Facebook logo in the top left corner is like twice as big, and there are these � symbols on the bottom links. I guess it's because I'm techy and can spot the obvious HTML flaws 8-)

Facebook is fucking stupid. Every time you click that little blue Allow button for an app you're basically granting the app full permissions to your account.

Don't play FarmVille, problem solved.

Haha, Falco plays Farmville? And I thought Marcel is the one who douched his ass...

Yeah, my shit got phished. No idea how, since I never click bullshit or type my password/username anywhere it shouldn't be typed.

Somebody must have been a smoooooth operator. It has been sorted out now.
