Friend Spamming On Digg
I don’t suggest trying this unless you plan on getting banned from Digg.
TheGoogleCache has delivered a proof of concept, showing how you can get someone to unwittingly befriend you on Digg, using a new feature they’ve implemented.
It’s amazingly simple.
You can now add a friend on Digg just by visiting the url http://digg.com/invitefrom/{username} as long as you are currently logged in.
So to get any Digg member who visits your site to automatically add you as a friend all you have to do is insert the following code into your site.
<iframe src=�http://digg.com/invitefrom/[insert username here]� height=�1″ width=�1″></iframe>
I don’t think it will be long till the Digg people crash the party on this one.
If you do visit that site or the one below do remember to go to your Digg account and delete them from your friends list.
