Sage Francis Exposes MySpace Fake Play Promoters

Sage Francis does a nice job of exposing one MySpace promo fraudster with a dialogue that reminds me of some of the approaches used to mess with Nigerian con artists except the company is conning music fans rather than the artists themselves.

Basically you can pay to get plays on your MySpace profile, an important thing for artists.  Sage Francis got the behind-the-scenes scammer info but I really wish he'd ask them not to give him some free plays to demonstrate the service but to share some success stories regarding particular musicians to see if he could have gotten some names.

In any case, nice work!
