A simple suggestion

Perhaps MySpace should create a login utility of some sort that resides on the user's computer. The way the scam works is simple, but flawed. It relies on users not paying attention to the address bar (or being so ignorant that they don't know to). I grant that my suggestion is most likely not without flaws itself, but I think it would help deter a lot of people from being scammed. At the very least they should have developers put their minds to. However, judging by the lack of action and the lack of change of MySpace, I doubt they will do much of anything. It's high time that monstrosity came crashing down anyway.
