Cingular Spreads Pinnochio Porn
It started out innocently enough, a Florida mom trying to send her family members a picture of her daughter sporting new braces.
Unable to see the photos on his crappy phone, Kim Admire’s brother Timothy received a text message directing him to Cingular’s photo sharing site.
After opening the link, instead of his niece, Timothy saw an animated picture of Pinocchio pleasuring a woman with his proboscis.
A computer glitch caused an image with the same name of, “shayna braces,” uploaded by another Cingular customer, to appear by accident.
When the family first contacted Cingular, the cellphone company took no action. The family then told their local news station.
After WKMG investigative news team contacted Cingular, the company removed the picture and said they dispatched a team of technicians to make sure it never happened again.
