PhotoPeeping.com – Details on what to do if photopeeping.com has your MySpace pics on their site or at least if you have gotten a message that says they do.
The PhotoPeeping.com website uses social engineering to try and trick you into revealing your email address and password as well as what site referred you to the PhotoPeeping site.
The first thing you see on PhotoPeeping is a message that pics have been uploaded to the site from your IP address in the last 24 hours and then it freezes your browser until you click OK, but that’s all part of the scam.
They want you to be uncertain about what’s going on and to go ahead and login so they can try to scam you by saying you get a “free Xbox”. Of course, that means completing a bunch of money-making merchant offers for them in order to get your free Xbox.
Even if you complete all the offers, you never get the free Xbox. PhotoPeeping.com is a scam just like the other 200 similar sites these spammers have used in the last two years. The only thing that changes is the “free gift” and the money-making offers you have to sign up for.
Just avoid the site completely. There are no pics of you or anyone else on the site.
If you entered your email and password, change your password on the site you said referred you to PhotoPeeping. Why? Because they’ll use a script to login as you and spam all your friends with the same message that tricked you.
And that’s the latest news on PhotoPeeping.com.
