So Sick of the Scam Emails

Posted onAuthorTruXter

Are people so stupid still these days that they still fall for the scam emails? I mean really, just because it looks like a legit name for the email like facebook_ceo@rip_you_off.com does not mean that 100% of the internet has to be so stupid as to still fall for that. I mean give it a rest for a while will you please? I mean just long enough for the world to let it’s guard down. The scam emails are getting so constant with the exact same scam over and over it’s like hearing a 4 year old tell you a joke, and probably just as well choreographed.
Facebook.Dating.List@heire.net
Like that junk. WTF…. please quit sending your crap to my email. I guarantee you that not even 1% of the world is stupid enough to fall for that, and the number of hits you can get on your site will not be enough for the amount of effort it takes to spam that garbage out.

There is no facebook Dating program that sends you an email. I didn’t fall for this the first time I got it. I am not falling for it now. I have not fallen for this stupid scam the 100000 times I received this stupid scam of an email. How about you try ” got your nose!” with me, you have a better chance.

Facebook Virus FARM

The Real Post about the Face Book Spider Bite scam video

The Virus is called “Koobface”
These are the koobface facebook virus files you need to kill
fbtre6.exe , mstre6.exe
These are the registry entries you have to remove from registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Run\”systray” = “c:\windows\mstre6.exe”
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Run\”systray” = “C:\Windows\fbtre6.exe”

People.. Please. The same stupid virus that has been getting you people since back in the first days of Myspace, is now getting you guys again on Facebook. The virus says ” Wow I can’t believe I can really see who looks at my profile” maybe an exclamation point or two.

How to fix the Facebook virus issue.

Please start with running a virus scan. Any of a good selection of virus scanners will do. If one virus scanner does not find the Facebook virus, try another. There are many listed on that page.
If you can access another computer, please change your Facebook password from another computer while the scanning goes on.
and delete any posts that link to the virus. GO TO YOUR PROFILE TO SEE ALL THE POSTS YOU MADE. You have to delete them to do your part in containing the issue.

I have been fighting the whole facebook hack junk since the end of 2010

Please people, you have to look at the links, look at the Facebook Status posts before you just go wildly clicking.

 

So in this order: scan your computer for a virus, change your password, delete bad posts. done.

How did you get hacked so fast?
You clicked the link, it used some of the Facebook authentication certificate and fooled your computer into trusting it, it gave up your password that you have saved (to make it easier to log in next time). BAM.
The bad ones are from you downloading something that was titled funny so you just had to see what it was.

Also if you are not into the free software that I link on the next page… Look to the right, there are legit ads from Google. Any of them will do. Google only recommends the good stuff. I can assure you that your virus will be removed using Norton or Macafee or any of the big name paid real virus scanners.

Charlie Sheen Facebook Virus

Posted onAuthorTruXter

There is a facebook virus going around. You click the link your account gets stolen your computer gets a virus. The link is titled “RIP Charlie Sheen Found Dead at his House!”

The link claims to have video footage of Charlie Sheen Dead.

Well Charlie Sheen is not dead. Charlie Sheen seems to have called quits to his Ustream rants in his last post on Ustream two days ago.

So there is no footage of Charlie Sheen dead. It is fake. If you have been clicking the links you may want to run a few virus scanners. I have a list of many good Free Virus Scanners that usually will do the trick for you.

Charlie Sheen is Not Dead!

Good luck happy facebookn.

Myspace On The Bidding Block

Posted onAuthorTruXter

The Largest most popular website ever is now up for sale. Yep the one that didn’t have a movie tell you it was the most popular site. The one that didn’t have a million movie stars tell you it was popular. It just was popular. It is now up for sale.

Could we now see a take over from Zuckerberg?

Either way, Facebook crushed Myspace two years ago with a heavy campaign “try me everyone else has” or ” love us because famous people love us” or the ever so funny one that makes me laugh when I see it ” I’m too cool for you to join my site, only cool funny people come here” tactics bombarded television and radio. and with every one of those came ” Stupid myspace, it’s so gay” meanwhile facebook is everything you hated about Myspace. Friends with 1000000001 requests to join their game, tons of spam, “here install this (virus) to see who is looking at your facebook account”. It’s all there . Everything that was on myspace is on facebook. But so many people got sold to the advertisements, they actually believed it was their opinion. And then News Cop (owners of Myspace) made a bonehead move and totally and completely bloated the website with some stupid top and bottom menu. Now there is no reason to stay there, you can not navigate that site.

So all we have now is the least Social Network, facbook.

Facebook Places and Grand Theft Auto trick

Posted onAuthorTruXter1 Comment

A few people are getting onto the sport of Grand Theft auto and Facebook Places. How? Well, funny you ask. and when I answer, you will see it funny too.
These people are checking in at locations that remind them of GTA and adding these places by the name that Rockstar games uses in the game. Like Bedford point, Alderny, vice port, Cluckin Bell, 24/7 and Hepburn Hieghts.
How cool would that be, to go to check in at a location and see that someone else has GTA defacedbooked it up, and they are currently there. Would that not be the ultimate awesome ? Greater than a rare chance that a Grand Theft Auto player will be there but hey it would be cool as heck.
If you really want to play the GTA Defacedbook game and add as many locations as you know of without leaving your house and having to drive around Try this : if you want to learn how to use Facebook places with your pc use this .

Get out there and name what you can you find. Make the names look as real as possible. because if Facebook see the Initials GTA or Grand Theft Auto  or San Andreas in the location, they will remove it. So make sure you are on the map.

As of today, your Facebook pictures are now bloated and crummy like Myspace pictures became.

Facebook gets more and more like Myspace every time Facebook does an update. Except Facebook gives away your personal information every time they update.

Myspace Pictures

Facebook or Twitter

Posted onAuthorTruXter1 Comment

The question has been asked once or twice. Maybe a bit more than that.
But the answer is not available. Sure there are tons of rants and flames and trolls answering but they mean very little when it comes to wondering what to use and how it works. Facebook? or Twitter?
How does Facebook work? how does Twitter work?
To begin, you must have one friend on either network, or they both get very boring very fast.
Then again, you can always make new friends, but you have to be willing to go out of the normal operation of either network.
Facebook
Facebook is a quiet little place where you can see updates of your friend’s current events. If your friend posts them to their Facebook account. Many people have a program on their cell phone, called an “app”. This app allows them to post to their Facebook account while they are out and about in public. This allows them to say stuff like ” at Raging meatball concert and saw a man stage dive on to a crowd of women”. This let’s all of their friends know, that they are at a raging meatball concert and they saw someone stage dive (jump from stage high into and on top of a crowd) landing on women. With Facebook you can type very long messages for your friends to read and add videos directly to your page so your friends can watch them. In most cases that is true. Except with the Facebook application on your phone, you can only type 140 characters. Most people use the Facebook app. On Facebook you can search your old school, or your old job and find people who like that place, now you may or may not have similar interests beyond that , but hey you can always try by adding them as a friend. Beyond that, you kind of have to already know the person before they become your friend. You also get bombarded with requests to join people in a game they play online. And there are millions of games on Facebook. So the requests come constant. all you can do is ignore each game as it it sent. Eventually you will block every game that everyone of your friends play.

You can upload many photos and many videos to Facebook.

Twitter

With twitter, you have a very fast past messaging system if you have enough friends or as they are called on Twitter, “followers”. Really you can follow anyone and watch their activity stream. On twitter you have the chance to block someone specific from seeing your Twitter stream or Twitter posts at any time. not many people bother with that. Hard part is adding people to follow, and even harder is adding people to follow you. That is of course if you use the Twitter system for adding friends. There are however, a few websites that let you find people under specific interests Like WeFollow. This allows you to program the information you see on your twitter page, and have it defined by interests or locations.You can upload photos and videos  to other systems that work with Twitter.

You can add news channels on Twitter and get news updates before anyone. you can add your favorite musician on twitter and find out what the heck she/he is thinking before they go on stage.

Downside is there are a bunch of spammer on twitter, so be ready to get nailed with crummy laptop deals. So choose the people you follow, carefully.
