Wanna Watch FIFA World Cup 2010 in my Website?

Wish I could fulfill your dream!

If you have landed in my website to view a live or highlighted match of the FIFA World Cup 2010 then you have landed in the wrong place. I mean my website is not the wrong place but internet itself is the wrong place. There is no place in the internet as of now which broadcasts World Cup matches live. So better go and switch on your TV if you are a Football Fan.

You may get several tweets, e-mails, messages etc inviting you to watch world cup matches live. Please do not go to these websites as all of them are frauds. They will invite you to the website and to watch live matches whereas there are most chances that you end up with something like this:-

1. A website asking for a subscription to watch the matches. I am sure that you wont even be able to watch the match online even after subscribing for amounts ranging from $20 to $200. So beware before you pay. Most of the times you cannot recover your money back once you pay it.
2. A website full of advertisements, which does this type of stunts to get traffic.
3. A website with embedded clips of the match with advertisements with some advertisements in it.
4. A website which asks your personal information to view matches. This is one way for spammers to build huge lists and then monitize them. Therefore do not give your contact details for watching a match.
5. Some website like me which wants to inform people about the fraudsters who are trying to fool the innocent internet surfers.

Do not be innocent and wake up! Suspect before every action you take. Any unknown click may even bring virus/ malware or spyware into your system which even the best antivirus in the world cannot delete or quarantine.

I will keep you updated. Thanks for reading.
