Warmup thingy. ❤️
Hi everyone! I have not been on in a while but when I logged on I noticed a bunch of posts that I did not make. I assumed someone hacked into my account but thought I would look into it since it seemed really specific. Welp, turns out I was onto something. Sounds like not only is this a bot that is hacking into peoples accounts but tumblr has tried to stop it to some capacity. This is just a PSA to others who may run into this problem. Once it happens, change your password.
so i know we're all going wild over TumblrPremiumPlus or whatever the fuck but ive made a new discovery about the r//a///yba//n/s scam (or new to me) and since i spent the time i should have been writing up my thesis proposal doing Tumblr Science instead, i have to at least write it down
so my datemate got an IM from someone asking what 'the sunglasses scam' was. That's in quotes bc the specific phrasing will be significant later.
my datemate replies with a message more or less along these lines:
"The sunglasses thing was about a bot that would hack accounts. Once it had access to an account it would make a post about Ray-Ban sunglasses and if you clicked the link in the post it'd hack you too."
Ey hits enter, but the message won't send. Not unusual, we all know that tumblr IM wil just randomly glitch out when it feels like it. So ey hits refresh, and abruptly finds emself on the log-in page.
"Hi! It's time to change your password!" the log-in page says.
My datemate is naturally suspicious about unexpectedly being asked to alter eir password, but, since ey practises basic cybersecurity and actually uses different passwords for every site, ey figures there won't be too much risk. Ey resets eir password, logs back in, and types out the message to eir friend again.
Same thing happens. Message won't send, ey's booted back out to the log-in page, and told to change eir password again. So ey do.
The third time this happens, ey figures something has to be wrong with the message. I've been watching over eir shoulder for a couple of minutes at this point, so we do a bit of Sciencing to work out what the fuck is going on.
Hypothesis: Tumblr IM is, for some reason, flagging mentions of ray-ban.
Experiment: I send various ray-ban related words and phrases to my datemate via IM. If any of them refuse to send and I get kicked out on refreshing, we've found the culprit
Results: "ray-ban" is fine. "sunglasses" goes through no problem. the precise phrase "ray-ban sunglasses" gets me drop-kicked to the log-in page like i was trying to start a fight in a nightclub (or so i assume. ive never actually been out clubbing)
I do a bit of fucking around on text posts with that phrase to see if that achieves the same effect.
I even tried recreating the original scam post as close as i can get without linking to a malicious website.
not a peep. i stay happily logged in.
so.
tumblrs solution to the ray-ban bots issue
was to blacklist the exact phrase "ray-ban sunglasses"
in the IM feature only
making it impossible
to TELL anyone
who uses the goddamn IM feature
about the goddamn scam

PUPPYCAT’S LITTLE SQUEAKS WHEN HE TRIES TO WALK DOWN THE STAIRS 😭😭😭
Little bit of a story time. My friend and I decided that for Halloween we were going to go downtown. We got there rather late so instead we bought Starbucks and sat outside. All of a sudden out of nowhere the whole street goes silent. Then in the distance you can head the sound of clicking hooves. Emerging from the darkened street came a horse painted as a skeleton and the headless horsemen up on top. The horse galloped through the downtown area then disappeared. So to whoever that was. Thank you, you made my night.
