Facebook | Ringaza Scam

جہانزیب — Sat, 07 Mar 2009 09:35:07 +0000

I’m pissed at Facebook and it’s stupid application known as “IQ challenge”.
Those of you who use facebook must be aware of this so called “IQ Challenge” by some of your friends.I had never tried it before, but was keep getting this challenge from friends to beat their score.Today i have received this challenge again with punch line “two of your friends think you are dumb”(which i now admit), out of curiosity i decided to take the challenge, there were ten dumb questions and in the end it asks your cellphone number to send your result.
I entered my number and received a text message with four digit pin code to enter into field at website to know my score, upon doing that i received another text message which said ” i will be charged $9.99″ on my phone bill, WTF? WHY? i never signed up for any service, and i was not even informed prior to charge that i’ll be charged for that?
but now in my account it says “i will be charged for $9.99 next month same date automatically”, so i started looking for any option to unsubscribe from the service and failed to find any, in text message it did have option to STOP service, by sending text message STOP to 75744, i did so, and received another text message that i’m unsubscribed from this service.
Guess what these text messages are considered premium messages and cost $4.99 each, which makes my total after taxes to $20.05.
Upon googling i found that many people are being gypped by this scam on facebook, what worries me more is ,even after unsubscribing from this service my account page it keeps saying it will recharge next month.
CBS did report on this scam last year, and i wonder why is this still part of Facebook?

Man's Law

جہانزیب — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 15:45:23 +0000

Below are few things that every man on planet must remember .

Under no circumstances two men should share an umbrella.
No man shall ever be required to buy a birthday present for another man. In fact, even remembering your mate’s birthday is strictly optional.
On a road trip, the strongest bladder determines pit stops, not the weakest.
When stumbling upon other blokes watching a sporting event, you may ask the score of the game in progress, but you may never ask who’s playing.
Unless you’re in prison, never fight naked.
Women who claim they “love to watch sports” must be treated as spies until they demonstrate knowledge of the game (can explain offside or LBW).
A man in the company of a hot, suggestively dressed woman must remain sober enough to fight.
Never talk to a man in a bathroom unless you are on equal footing: i.e. Both urinating, both waiting in line, etc. For all other situations, an almost imperceptible nod is all the conversation you need.
It is acceptable for you to drive her car. It is not acceptable for her to drive yours.
Phrases that may NOT be uttered to another man while lifting weights.

Yeah, Baby, Push it!
C’mon, give me one more! Harder!
Another set and we can hit the showers!

Super bowl

جہانزیب — Sun, 01 Feb 2009 17:44:17 +0000

It is super bowl weekend in United States today, apart from being biggest sports event in country, many other things are associated with super bowl event only, like expensive TV commercials, it costs million bucks for 30 seconds to advertisers this year, also controversy in commercials is associated with super bowl, an organization named PETA which is pro vegetarian organization wanted to put their commercial which says if you eat meat, you wont be good at sex, PETA is notorious for putting such commercials and most of them are sex-meat-related commercials.
Eating meat and stake parties are also considered part of watching the game, but more interesting is about violence against women during super bowl game, either myth or truth, it is believed during super bowl there is increase in violence against women, by their loved ones who can not control emotions during the game, and off course breaking of television is also considered common practice during this event .

what religon are you

جہانزیب — Thu, 06 Oct 2005 14:41:00 +0000

You scored as Islam. Your beliefs are most similar to those of Islam. Do more research on Islam and possibly consider taking the shahadah and officially becoming a Muslim, if you aren’t already.

Despite the actions of some – who go against the teachings of Islam – Islam is a religion of peace; the word “islam” means “peace through submission to God.” “Muslim” means “one who submits to God.” Islam is the third of the three Abrahamic faiths, and it shares much with Judaism in Christianity; its differences are the acceptance of Muhammad as the last and final prophet, and the oneness of God – in other words, that Jesus, though he was a revered prophet, was not in fact God, and only one God exists. Apparently the Taliban could not read (though their name means “students”), because the Qur’an states that men and women are equal as believers, and that all believers should be educated and seek knowledge. Modesty in dress and behavior is required in Islam for both men and women to preserve the values of society and move the emphasis from superificial appearance to intelligence, knowledge, and God.
