What's wrong with people?
Can't we just tweet and Snapchat in peace without everyone f**king with our phones?
There's a really annoying new prank doing the rounds that is playing havoc with iPhones, iPads and even desktop computers.
Basically people are sending round a link to a site called CrashSafari...which ridiculously enough does exactly what it says on the tin.
Clicking on the link generates a burgeoning string of characters which Safari cannot process and it inevitably overwhelms the memory.
Your iPhone will heat up trying to process it before it's forced to reboot.

You might think a website link called CrashSafari might be easy to spot, but the crafty b*stards are using shortened bit.ly and ow.ly links to hoodwink iPhone users.
It's already done more than 100,000 people...

It won't ruin your phone, but it just p*sses people off...

Some helpful guys were even posting the offending link...

We preferred simpler times when where a good old-fashioned #RickRolling was king...
