PhotoTradingSpot.info – Yet another spam and scam website, phototradingspot.info, popped up today and the phototradingspot site is definitely one to stay away from.

Scam website phototradingspot.info

The website PhotoTradingSpot.info has no photo trading going on at that spot. They have zero photos of you or anyone else.

The whole phototradingspot site is a big scam, plus there are hundreds of identical spam and scam websites from this same group of scammers.

    Fake free gift at phototradingspot website

    Here’s how the spam and scam websites work:

    1. When you visit the phototradingspot site, they use an automated script that grabs your email and password.
    2. Their spammer script then logs in as you on whatever site you told them you were referred from.
    3. The scam script then sends out bulletins, emails, comments, etc. to all your friends with the message “is this us on phototradingspot.info?”
    4. The photo scam messages they send have a little javascript file that grabs the profile pic of the person reading it to make the message seem more legit. Plus, the message came from an online friend (only it was scam spam, not really your friend).
    5. Next, the phototradingspot site tries to scam you into giving up more than just your email and password. How? By scamming you into thinking that the “friend” who referred you to phototradingspot.info has reserved you a free gift like a ringtone or a cellphone.
    6. Then you find out that you’ve gotten signed up for all sorts of things like ringtones billed to your cellphone, or even worse, duped into signing up for a music club or a Blockbuster video membership just to be able to see your pictures on the photo trading website.
    7. Meanwhile, their script is spamming all your friends with the same scam that hooked you.
    8. Then the next round of spam and scam starts, often with a brand new website because the scammers burn through these sites in a day or two and then move onto a new one.

    Again, there are no pictures of you on the phototradingspot website. The whole thing is just one huge scam that’s been going on for the past two years. Don’t fall for it!
