Reason #592 not to use Myspace
 
Man Robbed by Teen Girls, Thought He was Meeting MySpace Friend

"A Jacksonville man says he was duped and robbed by two girls after attempting to meet with a woman he met on the internet.

The victim says he chatted online with a woman, known on her MySpace.com profile as “Natalia”, for two weeks before deciding to meet with her. He says her prfile showed sexy photos, and a blurb which said “just lookin’ for something fun”. That brief, friendly description was all he knew about her before they planned to meet.

"She sent me a message saying she thought she met me somewhere," says the victim.

They decided to meet at what she called her home at the Bentley Green Apartments.

“I went to [the apartment] and knocked on the door, and there was no answer. So I called her and said, ‘I'm here’ and there was no answer."

That is when two girls who were 14 and 15-years-old, approached him saying they knew Natalia, the girl he thought he'd be meeting. They also said they knew where he worked at what car he drove.

"This was not the girl that the picture was of on MySpace," the victim said.

Now sensing something was wrong, he was ready to take off, but was stopped by a shocking discovery.

"[One of the girls] took [a] gun out and put it to my head and told me to empty my pockets."

The girls didn't get much because the victim had forgotten his wallet. They let him go, unharmed, and he called police.

Police did a search of the area and found the two teens with another male suspect. They searched a purse and found two loaded handguns."

Myspace.com may have been developed for friends and music, but this victim had to find out the hard way that not everyone is logging on for the right reasons.

The so-called Natalia did tell the victim that she was 18, so he was shocked to learn he was actually talking to a 14-year-old. He says he has since removed personal information from his MySpace profile, like his salary and the kind of car that he drives.

Those teenagers are now charged with armed robbery and carrying a concealed firearm.

These people are idiots.

First, if you don't know anything about the person, you don't meet up with them. There are people on FFR that I've been talking to (mostly on aim) for a couple of years now. Would I meet up with them. Only if...

...Second, we met in a public place. What kind of idiot meets in private for the first time?

And Finally, people like this need to die because people like this make my parents lecture me about the dangers of the intarweb.

The scariest factor is that these 2 high school girls were targeting boys around age 17 or 18 who don't know any better. That's a whole new target because usually girls around 15/16 are targeted by pedophiles. This is like the ultra reversal, accept the man wasn't a pedophile. It's like that movie "Hard Candy" except the guy was not evil.

More like: Don't meet people from MySpace. The end.

People from forums and the like are, 99% of the time, safe to meet. Mostly because they're all huge losers who couldn't rape you if they wanted to.

Now, whether or not they suck at Guilty Gear is a different matter... but that's a story for another time.

You say that as if disagreeing with what some other people who are equally human decided was "right" and "wrong" automatically makes you a bad person.

Uhm...robbing an innocent, even if idiotic, guy does make someone a bad person, unless they find a way to expiate the crime.

the only reason ppl get raped and all that stuff is because they make that choise of puttong put that information to the whole world. And with the spyware program with a profile on private thats not your friend, you can look into that profile.

Yeah. That's the ONLY reason people get raped.

People are never kidnapped and raped unless they put their MySpace profile up.
