iFraud
iFraud is a form of scam to gain access to the money, Computer, IPod, or reproductive organs of an iPod user. This form of scam is typically aimed at the less intelligent users of iPods, such as those that listen to crap. Unfortunately, in the United States, iFrauders have a rather large flock of sheep to feed off of.
History[edit]
It all started back when Apple released the iPod. Back in the day when iPods cost $500 for a cheap one, they were a precious and rare commodity. The term iFraud was originally coined to describe the fraudulent and outrageous prices Apple placed on their MP3 players. Over time, however, as it was realized that an iPod could hold more songs than one person could ever own, the iPod theft rate dramatically increased, crops were successful, population soared, furbies reproduced, and, as a result, the term iFraud was shifted more towards the theft of iPods. As the price decreased, the scumbagishness of the people who couldn't afford to buy an iPod but could afford to filch one increased, and thus the methods became more violent. Thus, the current meaning of iFraud came along, as dealing with any crime remotely related to iPods.
WHY GOD, WHY!?[edit]
It has been speculated by professional Psychiatrists such as Ann Coulter, Ph.D, that iFraud sates a deep-seated need to listen to music typically associated with Country and inviolate Women. Others in the field, such as the highly respected Dr. George W. Bush, M.D Ph.D, who himself recently had his own iPod stolen while conducting research as to the effects of the Backstreet Boys on his mind, attribute iFraud to capitalism, in which an iPod is seen as potential capital. To remedy this, he suggests, we should replace capitalism with a much more proven and stable form of government such as Communism or a Ducktatorship. The relationship between a Ducktatorship and Capitalism remains unclear to those of us without both a Ron Paul button and a Ph.D. Other less reputable psychologists maintain that it is merely a desire on the part of the poor to listen to gangsta rock yo in the hood without having to pay for an iPod. These psychologists are typically shunned as being far to radical for their field.
Forms of iFraud[edit]
iFraud appears in a variety of forms, so many that it would be impossible to document them all. Any case of a stolen iPod is iFraud.
"Let me listen"[edit]
This is a very common form of iFraud. One performing this type of iFraud will most probably steal your iPod. SO beware when you enter the hood. Or when you see darkness around you.
How it's done[edit]
- Drug the friend, take him to the back of the big van, put him in, steal his clothes, skin, hair, and voicebox, and use them.
- At this point the iFrauder may copulate with the body of the friend.
- Put on the friend's skin, clothes, voicebox, and hair
- Ask the owner of the iPod to "listen to a song."
- When the owner hands the fraudster the iPod, the iFraudster runs away with it to the van.
- The iFraudster, to avoid felony charges, returns the soon-to-be-ex-friend's skin, hair, voicebox, and clothes.
How to counter it[edit]
If you are the owner of an iPod, never EVER let your friend listen to a song on it. If you MUST let them listen to a song on it, wrestle them to the ground and ask them a question only the real friend would know. Perhaps several questions, in case the iFraudster had some sodium pentathol with him.
The thinly veiled threat[edit]
This is a far less common form of iFraud, often practiced by people desperate to hawk an iPod off for Drug money.
How it's done[edit]
The iFraudster will typically hold the owner or a loved one at knifepoint to get the iPod. If he does not get the iPod straight away he will perform gross sexual acts on the victim until he gets it, or eventually force the victim to perform Seppuku.
How to counter it[edit]
Keep your iPod in a secure place to prevent filching. When you must go out with it, be sure to carry a high caliber rifle with you at all times. Remember, iFraudsters are violent and sneaky people, so be suspicious of anyone and Everything around you.
iTunes Scam[edit]
This is a very dangerous form of iFraud that grants the iFrauder access to your computer.
How it is done[edit]
First the iFraudster must find a way to influence the music store. he or she can do this a number of ways:
Then the iFraudster uploads a music file that is secretly a Trojan horse and takes over your computer, and steals your banking information when you buy the music file.
How to counter it[edit]
Stay away from iTunes at ALL costs. It is dangerous, and using it is like asking for a virus. You are much safer using the proven P2P method.
