Chuishite! Yaari.com?
Posted on 16. Jan, 2008 by dimaks in Technology
Your attention please! ..be warned! ..take note of it!
If you ever come across with an email that is inviting you to join a certain social networking site, this time dubbed as “Yaari.com“, don’t ever get excited and rush onto signing up.
Yaari is in the business of phishing, and unless you want your entire address book hijacked, do not sign up. Source
Along the way of signing up, there is a page that demands you to put in your email address followed by its corresponding valid password for “confirmation” thing, as shown in the image below:
Don’t get trapped. I suspect that along the way, even before reaching the page containing the image above, information stealing is already happening.

Thanks for the heads up, Dimaks! Personally, I am not fond of joining every social network popping out of nowhere. Daming invites sa email but I just ignore it.
Glad you’re back na
Happy weekend!

@dimaks – salamat sa comment. it is promising. definitely not a scam. I’m spending the money to reward the users rather than spending it on advert big time.
