Bad Music, Credit Fraud, iTunes, Amazon and a Plan

June 12, 2009 – 1:39 pm

There are plenty of bands that want to make it big. However few of them go about it in the way you’re about to read.

It seems that a gang of rather daft punks decided to used cloned credit cards from American and U.K users to purchase $750,000 dollars worth of their own music. This nine group ensemble, who must have thought of themselves as Kool and the Gang, put their music up for download on Apple’s iTunes and Amazon after negotiating a 40% royalty fee. Then they performed a cheap trick by using the stolen credit card accounts to purchase their own music.

But it wasn’t long until these misfits were found out by the police. The police, who naturally know how to sting troggs like these, didn’t take long to put the gang in dire straits. Now locked behind closed doors, the gang will have a long time thinking about their garbage plan. There’s no doubt that this motley crew must have simple minds in their heads to try and pull off such a phishy plot. Who knows how long they’ll be convicted for? I’m sure no judge is in a rush to let them out to continue their fraudulent journey.

How would you feel if one of these pretenders had your credit card information? Make sure your normal routine isn’t turned into a life of agony by protecting yourself today. After all, there’s nothing more ludacris thank losing your good name and not being able to get a nickelback.
