"I guess Al qaeda haven't figured out how to set up a facebook profile yet. I want Osama himself to message me his death threat, that'd be wicked."

Someone impersonates Benazir Bhutto's 19-year-old son Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Facebook and fools a lot of journalists:

[T]he author appears to have been an Internet prankster who calls himself Tonay, who chronicled the caper on a vulgarity-strewn bulletin board that tracks with the developments on the Facebook profile....

The jocular quotes on Islam mentioned... and references to “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” apparently had no point aside from sparking laughs from other bulletin board users searching the Web for more articles citing the Facebook page.

They also urged Tonay to “cause as much mayhem as you can before the world finds out! Hurry!!!”...

Of course, it is against Facebook policy to post phony profiles...

I know. I got a fake page using my name taken down a while ago. Anyway, Facebook has now removied this, but not before it caused havoc. Don't you think the idea that it was real and its contents will remain alive on the internet? If Bilawal had an embarrassing page, don't you think it would have been taken down with assertions that it was fake?

Now, let's check out that "vulgarity-strewn bulletin board." You can get a good sense of how "pranksters" see themselves — which is, with little understanding of the harm they might do. It's just a big joke and anyone who falls for it is an idiot.

Gimme some ideas for what I should do! I'll change my religious views from 'muslim' to 'christian' soon. And join the group called 'Benazir Bhuto is sexy'. Couple of islamic extremists poked me too, scary...

I need to write a single response which I can send back to all the letters of condolence. Something sad, poignant, and then becoming weird and disturbing....

WOW, someone who works in the tv industry (I listed my fave tv shows as The WestWing, Simps, XF, Curb, awfultruth n bufffy) sent me this...

"I noticed some of your favorite programs are programs I have worked on... which was why I mentioned my profession. If there is anything I can do, autographs or something, let me know?"

The only one of those shows set in New York is The Awful Truth, so maybe she knows Michael Moore. Awesome, I'll see if I can get her to post his tits...

Maybe it's the ego talking but I'm fairly confident I can start rioting that'd kill thousands.

I mean, I know exactly what to say, how to say it and everything...it's just my annoying conscience stopping me. For fucks sake....

So far I got 1149 messages and about 2100 friend requests. No death threats so far, but then I guess Al qaeda haven't figured out how to set up a facebook profile yet. I want Osama himself to message me his death threat, that'd be wicked.
