IMPORTANT

Mon Feb 16, 2009, 3:57 PM
  • Mood: Apprehensive
  • Listening to: Justify - Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
  • Reading: Too many books and fics at the moment
  • Watching: The numbers gradually fall
  • Playing: Nothing
  • Eating: Nothing
  • Drinking: Nothing
And coming from me, if it's in caps. It's gotta be important!!

"DA Oddness abounds. If I or anyone else comments on one of your Deviations with a link that says "rofl this may be relevant to your interests" DO NOT CLICK ON IT! It will send you to a webpage that does not load, but somehow uses your account to quite randomly send the same comment link to other Deviations that you never even visited. This of course makes the system think you're spamming and refuses to let you comment further. Again, DO NOT CLICK ON THAT LINK!"

"This is a warning, if you see myself or anyone else on deviant art post a comment anywhere on your page or deviations that reads "rofl this may be relevant to your interests" absolutely DO NOT click on it. I did and now my entire computer is screwed up. I repeat, DO NOT click on the link."

MAKE A JOURNAL REPOSTING THIS STATEMENT!!! SPREAD THE WORD!!!"

Even though I"m a little late in throwing this out... still it's very important not to click on ANYTHING that you think might be something other than it says that it is.

Also I'd like to share with you guys never to click on links like the following (that I just saw in my pm inbox before I saw this message out there -thankfully I didn't click the link 'cause it was very offensive to me that someone would send me a message like the following:

"Title:Sup, Samantha G. (lol)! )))
From: !uvlouvromooc
Date: Feb 14, 2009, 2:28:09 PM
Message:hello, samantha-girlscout!!
your comment was really hot! ))) could u rate my nude photo art too? there it is [link] "

Just to clear something up with you guys:
1. I've never made a comment that was meant to come across as being 'hot'.
2. I don't look at nude photos
3. The member is already banned
and
4. I'm only putting this out for you guys so you can see an example of another kind of message that I'm guessing is going around as well.
PS: The link is not there because no one should be tempted to click it.



Just remember guys: Think before you click!

Really I think it's funny that so many people are falling for this or that there are so many warnings that need to go out...am I the only one who looks at what the link is before clicking on it?... :paranoid: I mean, this should be a warning that people should get regardless of whether there's a dA scam or not...:paranoid:

This is the best kind of person to talk to: someone who is willing to take an honest look at the evidence. Being willing is essential. Evidence cannot convince the unwilling.
