Welcome to MySpace: Joe Pags Gets Hacked

For the past several days, Joe “Pags” Pagliarulo, the weekday mid-morning host on KTRH-radio, has been talking up his just initiated MySpace page. In just a few days, the number of his friends skyrocketed, he has been announcing proudly on the radio.

Listeners have been encouraged to join up, the more the merrier.

So it was with some sheepishness that he had to announce this morning that someone hacked into his system and sent out a message to his “friends.”

The message, with Pags’ name attached, told all the recipients that they had won a Macy’s gift card worth $400.

So if you got a message announcing this windfall, it’s fake, he says. And he’s changed his password. – Margaret Downing
