Its nearly impossible for a website to rid of all spam and that is what needs to be realized. Look at e-mail it is filled with spam and nobody can seem to end the bursts of spam we receive. Its pretty much the same thing

I agree, spam is hard to stop, but they could at least inform their users about phishing activities.
While banks, credit card companies, even eBay regularly warn their users about phishing, myspace does not. I've never seen an email or homepage message warning users about where they enter their login details. It appears that they don't care as long as the money keeps rolling in and News Corp can gather information and spread influence.
