    Maybe you downloaded a trojan or spyware that read your dp cookie.

    Most of the time, the phishers set it up so that when you click on the link, they have access to your account and they immediately change your password and use your account for spam and such. I would immediately change your password. I learned this the hard way with my yahoo email.

    42rumbler I also donwloaded that rapcom file and found my name in it.

    I think it is that they stole the theme of DP and we where online when they did this. If not then I haven't a clue and just hope my pc isn't infected :eek:

    I don't know what exactly the purpose of you (whatever are you, man/woman) who made that site.
    I just wanna remind you that it doesn't need a hard work to get in hell. You did too many steps to go to hell : buy new domain, host it, stealing theme or content, making virus, sending spam PM, stealing people password, and then to last point : scam people/stealing our money.

    People don't have to work that hard to be hell member but you show us here that you've been doing your best.
    Congrats! You will deserve your hard work. Wish you got what you deserve.
