HOME Beta Scam Warning!!! (Short Blog)
Alexradl \| 8:17 PM on 09.26.2008	8 comments

I just got a message on PSN from the user "PSN-HB-request" with the title "HOME BETA" saying the following:

"Congratulations! You have been selected as a Playstaion@Home beta tester. This message has been delivered to you for the purpose of effective feedback concerning Playstation@Home. If you are interested in receiving the beta, please reply back. Your message should include your PSN Sign-In ID (E-mail Address) and password. As soon as we get your information, we will upload Playstation@Home into your XBM.

SCEA, SCEE, SCEJ"

Be on the lookout for this message, and don't be stupid and reply back with your information. This is obviously a scam and should be ignored.

DIABETUSSSSS

Nah it's real. I mean I gave him my e-mail and password so it has to be real, right? RIGHT?!

Honestly...I got a little excited at first when I saw I got a message about the "Home Beta"...then I read the message.

He needs my password, so clearly he's legit.

Ha, sucker! I gave the guy that information already and it's redirecting me to the beta access screen right n--oh god. Hmmmm....emptying account...purchasing all items in PS Store...self-destruct...is this bad?

I got the same message (it was also during FNF), and sent the guy an attachment of me flicking him off. I got pretty excited about it too, when I read the name of the sender.

Indie Album of the Month

Pomegranates - Everything Is Alive

Pomegranates are a 4 piece band from Cincinnati, Ohio currently signed to Lujo Records. Joey Cook's unique voice coupled with a catchy, up beat tune makes for a perfect combination. Most of the album was recorded live, showcasing the band's spontaneity. After the band's well received EP title "Two Eyes" fans wondered if they could come back strong with a full length album. Obviously, they've surpassed expectations

Verdict- Buy it!
