Sure, for some a look alike site is an invitation to enter your information. Not sure how this continues to fool people so often, when there is CLEARLY a URL in the address bar that screams “I AM A HACK”, LMAO

But alas, some are still fooled. And from the looks of my email box, this is NOT over yet. So if you are using Gmail, all you need to do is create a quick filter and you should be golden. Just DO NOT click on DM links on the Twitter side and you do not need to worry. Most hackers are lazy about masking the obvious, because they still get people to click anyway.

Well let me show you the obvious on these Twitter DM (direct message) hacker emails and how to block them with Gmail real easy.

It is hard to believe all of the big user IDs that this has spread through! People like Brittney and Barack Obama have all been snagged. Also Fox News and even Rick Sanchez who loves Twitter and is a CNN News anchor had a tweet reading that he is “high on crack and might not be coming into work today.”

Fox News Tweeted that “Bill O’Rielly is Gay” which I know offended every gay man and woman in America. They DO NOT want to be associated with him in any way, LMAO.  Just look at some of these crazy screen shots from the guys at Read Write Web!

Weeks ago, I was contacted by a true genius Dwight Miller from Start a Business Backwards. He had me on the list for possible interview for his new project. Dwight would be launching the Black Genius Network on Jan. 1 2009, and wanted to tap me for an interview.

I was TRULY honored to even be considered, and now that he himself was contacting me to schedule made me really jump up. Mr. Miller is HIGHLY regarded as an expert in his field and has been know as the man that makes things happen. He is mentor to many that I respect, people like David Bullock, Brent Leary and many others can tell you what a gem this man is in the world of business.

His latest project with the Black Genius Network is dedicated to posting little known African American success stories and  in honor of President Elect Obama and the success of his campaign.

So to ad insult to injury (LOL), not only did he do the interview, but I was tapped to be the FIRST interviewee of the new year. SO guys and girlies, you can check out this New Years Day interview from the Genius Network with yours truly. It really tells the story of how I got into business and made it from nothing to something. Please take a listen to John Lawson (ColderICE) Enterprenuer on the Black Genius Network
