Spam BBM: Message from Jim Balsamic (CEO of RIM Blackberry)?!?!?! WTH?????

March 24, 2011 By 7 Comments

WOW!! So I get a ton of spam BBM’s from across the globe but this one takes the cake! First of all who the hell is “Jim Balsamic” and what happened to Jim Balsillie? Second of all RIM will not BBM you! Come ‘on people get your S*#t together! RIM would not make a mistake of call Jim Balsillie, Jim Balsamic” that just would not happen and the spelling and grammar? I just won’t go there…. Thank you for taking part on my rant of the day!

BBM is shutting down at 12:00.   0clock tonight if you don’t broadcast this you’ll loose your contacts

Sorry guys :( Apparently it is true, cause its happened to certain people already, so I’m not taking any chances !!

    It still cracks me up when I see these BC’s, like seriously who falls for this sh$t anyways….

    Im sick of getting this stupid BC. Ive had it sent to me about 50 times today, 4 times by the same person. So at the final BC she sent i just ripped into her and called her a dumb B*tch lol. Why do people fall for it, i remember about 5 years ago they was saying something very similar on MSN Messenger and thats still running and with out a charge.

    I feel kinda guilty for having a go at her but she needed to be told, so i set her right and also told her the name was incorrect so like ive told all the rest its total bullsh*t. After all if people thought about it like i did from day one of getting this stupid BC, each Blackberry made as its own pin already loaded into the phone so how can people be creating to many usernames. I swear some people just dont see the bigger picture. DOH to them.

    I could not agree more with both of you. After is set this person straight I delete him. MancMatt don’t feel guilty…

    It proberly wont happen because if it did, you would get a text from your phone company stating that bbm would be shutting down. I have also recived these bc’s.

    I got this today while I was out and, having never seen it before, I immediately replied to the sender that it was spam…..didn’t know Jims last name was wrong. Clue 1 . 12:00 o’clock…..hmmm the actual words “o’clock” are redundant, clue 2 loose my contacts? lemme just run that free “backup utility” you gave me when I bought my phone!!! clue 3…over usage of user names??? they use PIN numbers! clue 4…foward to all your contacts? FML, reminiscent of MSN and Facebook SPAM. Clue 5, my inactive account will deleted in 48 hours? GET REAL! I pay for this account so as long as I keep paying the bill, it doesn’t matter whether it’s active or not! clue 6. you seriously think you’re going to charge me 25.00 to reactivate (would that be dollars or donuts?)
    Just sayin….anyone who actually falls for this crap deserves to fish their Blackberry out from the bottom of a well used outhouse hole without gloves.
