Passing along a Griefing Alert...
Laurence Simon
--------------------------
WARNING: A malicious freebie is making the rounds in second life.
If you receive an object called “[L4L]-Gestures & Walkers (Freebies) <3″, delete it at once. DO NOT Rez, or wear it! This object will rez replicating micro cubes in YOUR name filling up a sim, which could cause it to crash, inadvertently making YOU the villain and subject to banning, and/or an AR being filed. Those cubes then send the malicious freebie to other avatars in the immediate vicinity, making it a vicious cycle.
Simon Linden said, “…it’s pretty much an ugly social-engineering griefer ploy.”
Whirly Fizzle provided a link about it: http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/exdepart and said, “[L4L]- Gestures & Walkers (Freebies) <3 is the one thats getting used a lot, ATM.”
--------------------------
I figure most folks don't need this kind of alert because we've all got common sense, bullshit detection skills, and don't accept junk from random strangers and such.
However, if you lack common sense and bullshit detection skills while accepting every "gift" like the shameless freebie whore you are, please ask someone before rezzing strange stuff from strangers. Oh, and remember that share of tier is due at the end of the month, and it's... (pinkie-to-mouth) ONE MILLION DOLLARS.
Thank you,
