The website tricked the user into entering their phone number and state, before interacting with a "Trace it now" link. It would then take the viewer to a fake GPS tracker, which is actually a [[Flash]] [[animation]]. A fake satellite image will also appear, and the animation will pretend to find the viewer's phone. After a while, the same [[GIF]] from [[Meatspin]] will appear while the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6DwBnea750 2003 remix] of "[[Wikipedia:You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)|You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)]]" by [[Wikipedia:Dead or Alive (band)|Dead or Alive]] plays as the background music.
