Sure makes total sense. I deactivated my Facebook account yet have no memory of it. This fake notice first takes you to “outhousepublishing.net/granville.html” where it probably tries to install a trojan virus (just guessing on that one as I didn’t get my usual warning) before forwarding you to “totaleach.com” to buy some Viagra. Weeee…what fun!

>> And later on in white colored font, you see:

I to the Woodlands shall repair, Feed with all Natures charms mine eyes, And hear all Natures melodies.The primrose bank shall there dispense Faint fragrance to the awakend sense, The morning beams that life and joy impart Shall with their influence warm my heart. And the full tear that down my cheek will steal, Shall speak the prayer of praise I feel! Go thou and seek the House of Prayer! I to the woodlands bend my way And meet RELIGION there. She needs not haunt the high-archd dome to pray Where storied windows dim the doubtful day: With LIBERTY she loves to rove. Wide oer the heathy hill or cowslipd dale; Or seek the shelter of the embowering grove, Sweet are these scenes to her, and when the night Pours in the north her silver streams of light, She woos Reflexion in the silent gloom, And ponders on the world to come. And they have drownd thee then at last! poor Phillis! The burthen of old age was heavy on thee. And yet thou shouldst have lived!
