You jack a page, now you have a starting point to feed IE exploits at
all the victim's friends when they visit. You get lucky and nail somebody
with 2,349 "friends", that's a lot of leverage. Especially if part of the
thing you shoot them is something to whack *their* Myspace page and go viral.
High hit rates by people who are likely not security/privacy conscious.
What's not to like about it if you're a black hat trying to monetize it? :)
You have a dirty mind my friend!
Glad you are on the light side of the force :-)
