Yes, exactly what thelaura said. So many people are clicking onto fake login pages, which leads to people being able to steal their passwords. The hackers then go onto these stolen accounts and advertise the websites like "Click here to get a free $500 gift card!" or "Wow, free ringtones!".
It's gotten so outrageous that I stopped using myspace. It's just really irritating when half my comments and bulletins are these advertisements. ]
If it's a comment about "ringtones" etc, it's not him posting them. His MySpace account has been phished meaning someone has got hold of his password and is posting them pretending to be him. It happens to so many people.. Tell him to change his password and they will stop.
For more information about accounts being phished, read Tom's blogs. ]
