For everyone wanting to know, this is how you fix it: 1. Go into safe mode (not in Windows, on MYSPACE) and go to your comments. Delete ALL comments that have Html in them, specifically the ones that have bull crap ads like "stalker tracker", "iPhone giveaway", etc. 2. Go to your account settings, go to Miscellaneous and disable HTML from EVERYTHING. Take it off of your comments in pictures, blogs, etc. 3. Change your password. It's not a trick, it's just myspace reacting to your crap comments. I had them too. I messaged myspace 28 times and they actually messaged me back. SO, It's not a hoax. It's your comments and HTML, so take care of that! OKAY!!! For everyone wanting to know, this is how you fix it:

I just got the message. Is it or is it not fake? I don't want a history I just want a yes or a no, and if it IS real, what should I do? So has anyone figured this out yet? I just got the message.

It was not a viral effort. The company formalyl known as euniverse or something along those lines with millions of emails that they spammed a few years ago to get myspace going. Myspace now is a corporate monster using its patrons, and people are falling for it. It's generating tons of money and doesn't give a damn how it goes about its business. Think about it, there whole detection of SPAM, etc is automated!

Frankly, I wasn’t that impressed when I first saw it, nor when I made an account, and it just went downhill from there when I eventually got my first friend request from someone whose pictures weren’t allowed on MySpace. By the time they got around to adding a Spam button, I was fed up with it. Facebook FTW. It simply boggles my mind just how godawful MySpace is, even after all this time.
