Sketch ass links

submitted by Otacon from self.saiditCleanup

Every single post from https://saidit.net/user/grmusicfm are oddly formatted links that lead to a sketchy ass site. The site only has download buttons that lead to link shorteners (link shorteners which generate cash) and then those link shorteners lead to a real sketchy looking DL site that slows free downloads. I'm not brave enough to find out if the zip files at the end of those links are dangerous or not, but regardless it seems pretty scummy to hide music behind all of those links.

Yeah I dunno, I think they're legit, but the person is clearly trying to promote their blog, probably with the main purpose of getting ad revenue from traffic. I'm on the fence about removing this user.

Their site isn't even a blog really, its just hosted on blogspot. Its just an endless list of greek albums with links that all go to god knows where. The sites look so sketchy I'm worried to try and DL anything in case my pc catches AIDs

It seems the download links work, so I'm not going to remove this user.

What's in the links though? Is it actually music at the end of all those links or is it malware in those zips?

Yes they're just zip files each with an album of 10 or so mp3s and a jpg of the cover and back of the CD. Perfectly safe.

Not a fan of their download services they're using, but the music is legit. I listened to an album last night. Definitely not my kind of music haha
