I think its a load of bullshit to do the numbers they did you would have gotten into the top 10. i cant see no popstars doing a scam like tis to get to number 1 and there hasnt been any dodgy people in the charts that nobody knows who they are. It would have taken ages to do and you would need a massaive hard drive to store all the mp3s on and didnt nobody notice somebody with the same ip address downloading the same tune 100,000 times. I dont belive it, if its true wicked idea for a scam but you never was going to get away with it was you.
wow! ... I'm sure it's Be-1ne
shhhhhhhhhhh lol
If i had that much free time i would def make use of it a bit more wisely than doing a retarded scam like that... should make for funny veiwing on the 2009 xmas dumbest criminals special.
Just looked on the BBC news site.... fair to say the itunes scam was slightly more inventive than this one:

hahaha sorry but what a fucking idea! don;t buy big tvs n nice watches with stolen credit cards, buy your own tunes! Do you know if it was off thier own label aswell so they got nearly all the profit?

If I ever did anything wrong, the first thing I asked myself was "can I get caught?" - I certainly wouldn't have led the trail of accountability right to my own doorstep. What an awful idea indeed.DIRTY wrote:I can't believe some of you think this was a good idea!
Thing that gets me though is that these people are sat in cells for what they've done while MP's who have been committing similar acts of fraud are just losing their jobs (maybe) with no possibility of prosecution. Double standards much?

tbh, you can't buy hype this good. best thing the big labels could do is sign them, market them as good and fool enough people with bad taste into buying their album... both will make money and in the end only itunes loses out. Guess they'll have to raise the price of a powerbook again init.dq wrote:has it come to light yet who did this? really interested to hear and can't believe it has been kept under wraps all this time. that suggests to me that either it's someone with clout, or there are larger forces involved.
