TradePrivateThings.com – Got a message that tradeprivatethings.com has your MySpace pics on their site and wondered what was going on with your pics?
The TradePrivateThings.com website tries to trick you into revealing your email address and password as well as what site referred you to the TradePrivateThings site.
The first thing you see on TradePrivateThings is a message that pics have been uploaded to the site from your IP address in the last 24 hours. 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 so you’ll go ahead and login. That way they can try to scam you by saying you get a “free Xbox” or something else everybody wants.
Of course, that means completing a bunch of money-making merchant offers at the TradePrivateThings website in order to get your free Xbox or other free gift.
Even if you complete all the offers, you will never get the free Xbox.
TradePrivateThings.com is a scam just like the hundreds of 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 that referred you to TradePrivateThings. 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 TradePrivateThings.com.
