Kromked.net – Avoid this new Facebook Joker!

April 30, 2009 / 23 Comments

Avoid visiting kromked.net! Just a very short post to alert you all about this Kromked stuff! Since the last few hours there is a sudden search rise about this website on google. There is not much stuff about it in the index of google. However after some search of recent tweets on twitter, I found that some people are talking to avoid this site.


Update: The explanation about this weird site has been obtained. Read below for the update. There is also a new version called Fbstarter.com since some hours now! Read more about it here.

Some people have been complaining that they received random messages on their facebook account to visit the site called www.kromked.net!

I went to check this site to have a look and saw nothing except an anti-google bot capcha which infact refered the site to a new address sabl.ru! Upon entering the code, nothing happens! This can be a trap or anything or just another attention catcher. But do avoid this if you get a direct message on your facebook to visit this site for the time being until more details are obtained. In case you are visiting it just for curiosity, do clear your cache and all cookies as soon as you leave the site.

Update: Carrotmadman just notified me of another similar site called fbaction.net. Check the first comment below to get the Techcrunch post about it.

Update 2: I have deduced a possible explanation of the weird domain name Kromked.net – In my opinion the owner of this domain has infact done a really amazing strategy to increase the value of this domain name which was just recently bought.

A malware on facebook is infact sending mass messaged to everyone telling them to visit this site. As people are looking for it they get weird refered url sites instead of the site and as such more people try to search for it on GOOGLE. This in turn increase the search value of the keyword and has even made it reached the Top Trends today. As people search, fellow bloggers and websites are already blogging and talking about it everywhere. This increase the backlinks toward this sit which in turn shall increase its value on Google.

However the mentioned site is not yet listed on Google and will even be flagged on facebook in the coming hours. The best bloggers can do is to blog about it but do not link to it directly, as if they site is flagged as dangerous by Google too, then you will be linking back to a malware site which can affect your ranking too!
