Diablo III Craze On Phish & Maze Diet

If you are NOT one of the 4.7 million people to have financially fueled the biggest PC game launch in history, but instead crave a free battle with Azmodan, the Lord of Sin, and Belial, the Lord of Lies, prepare for some bruises from the real world as well.

We`ve all found out (ever since before the beginning of the glittery 80s) that video has, indeed, killed the radio star. No news to be broken on the video tutorial either: it`s here to stay and to keep you gaping at the screen as you see others do to/for you what you`d like to do to others, so to say. Now, is there a video tutorial on the secret moves of Diablo warriors? Hell, yes! Is there a video out there that points you to a heavenly place where you can get free Diablo 3 licenses? Triple “Hell, yes!”.

“Wield the might of a thousand powers””¦.NOT. Just click.

Your quest for an answer on the evil`s rebirth comes to a really disappointing halt! All you get is a regular or premium encounter with”¦.the quiz maze!

What`s a disappointment if not the perfect occasion to try crying on a friend`s shoulder? Make it a virtual friend and you`re all set. The Facebook-savvy scammers` community will jump to the occasion and try to soothe you:

Well accustomed to the hellish temperatures of the Diablo universe, you forget the boiling pot you`ve just extracted yourself from, you get into your stoic Monk stanza and hit click”¦.AGAIN!

What happens next doesn`t lead you to “purg[ing] the Evil at its source and restor[ing] balance to the corrupted lands of Sanctuary.” Instead, it takes you to a classic Facebook scam with a phishy twist.

Recognize the blind Share and Like tricks? Thought so. Now listen to this: you are already logged in to Facebook and Shares will work without harm, but when you hit Like, a pop-up window will request your credentials AGAIN. And that`s when you say bye-bye to your account!

If downloading game licenses from authorized sites is not an absolute must for you, then using internet security software should be. It`ll definitely help you save your neck for real, in-game bone- breaking sessions!
