I’m sure all of you are familiar with the Landlord clip on FunnyorDie.com, a Youtube clone with a simple rating system. Either it is Funny Or Die! I signed up last week to be able to use favorites etc and I just received the following email from FunnyOrDie.

    Yeah, I got it too. No idea yet what that means. I also signed up for an account there so it may be true and they harvested the user list. Let that be a reminder for folks not to use the same password on every site they visit. I hope you didn’t on this site.

    I got it too… I’m afraid to visit medibliz.net. The email was just too vague, so I flagged it as spam, and searched “mediabliz” to see if anyone else has visited the site.

    Anyone check it out yet?

    got two of ‘em, one at 11:30 central, the other about 20 minutes later, maybe they injected some php code to get funnyordie’s table of registered user’s email, cant say i trust a site like that

    WOW! I just found the same message in my junk email folder, and I forwarded it to the folks at Gary Sanchez Productions (who created the site) whose email I found under the About Us section on FunnyorDie. I’d appreciate a returned message from them, but I have my doubts. If I do hear something I guarantee I’ll let you know. Later

    So the email that I sent those yahoos came back as undeliverable. Who knows what Will F. is doing right about now in regards to this issue. They actually posted a blog on their site last Tuesday talking about new improvements to come… Why does it feel like this site just took a huge leap backwards???
