Considering there is such tight security when it comes to this book, I doubt anything really important was leaked. As for someone having a copy of the book and posting it on the internet, the publishers have all copies and are only transporting it to retailers on Tuesday, meaning NO ONE can possibly have a copy. Don't believe the spoilers. I typed Harry Potter Spoilers on google, and the first three links gave me three different endings.Originally Posted by www.mugglenet.com
That's what amuses me about the internet. Someone can post something made up at 100% and there are people who are bound to believe it to be "THE TRUTH", without checking other sources.
WHY OH WHY WOULD YOU TYPE THAT INTO GOOGLE? DO YOU HAVE NO SHAME?Considering there is such tight security when it comes to this book, I doubt anything really important was leaked.

I typed that because I knew I would get nothing but hogwash when I did, and was trying to prove a point. Don't get your panties in a bunch, KB.
It isn't that someone got a physical copy of the book. A while back there were reports that Bloomsbury (Schoolastic? One of the blasted publishers) got hacked and someone stole an electronic copy of the text, in which case I completely disregard claims about scans of the novel.
That said, mugglenet also reported the following:
"It has emerged that some book stores in the UK are not required to keep a written agreement preventing them from selling Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows before its release next Friday.
'It's quite possible one will break the embargo,' says Katherine Rushton from The Bookseller magazine. 'They'd do it to be first, and for all the PR.'
Bloomsbury replied saying that there is 'no reason to believe anyone would want to ruin the excitement. If such a thing were to happen, we believe that the public would make their feelings known by not buying it from such a spoilsport retailer. [However] it is our intention to vigorously enforce the embargo if required.' "
So, I guess it's a possibility, although I'm sure news of such a thing happening would have made it out.
OKIE PEOPLE BE WARNED!!

That is where he got his final synopsis. Considering the fact that everything listed was listed, in more or less the same detail, in /b/ last night by someone posting pictures of actual pages from the book.
Seriously though, they're not real spoilers.
What he said... I am a sucker for spoilers, so I always look em up for things like this. So far, I have read about every single character dying at least once, as well as some ridiculous stuff like Harry going berserk and killing everyone. Of course, all of the sources claimed that they were totally true.
And even if they were true, so what? Personally, I have read all of the books at least twice. Despite of knowing how it will end, they were just as good as they were the first time I read them.
I'm too much into manic hyper potter mode to do much theorising, but I think (SPOILER)Neville will either kill Bella or Voldie, but not both.
And that Harry's eyes are carrying his mother's soul...or something of that sort.
And something disastrously horrible will happen at Bill + Fleur's wedding.
And there will be a beautiful romance between Sirius's bike and the Flying Ford Anglia (tm)
I don't think Malf jr. will reform, but he will either be killed and pitied forever, or flee possibly with Pansy and live somewhere in Eastern Europe, slowly becoming less of an annoying snob. And Mrs. Malf and Malf Sr. will probably die.
And Voldemort is actually Tonks metamorph'd. :kaoplain:
Dunno if my theories deserved spoiler tags, but whatev.
From what I understand, didn't 4chan have photos of every single page of the book? As in, not scans, but digital camera photos? I know that a 4channer friend of mine were jokingly discussing ways in which to spoil it for people with me last night (Skywriting over London and setting someone reading spoilers as his ringtone were my personal contributions). I've seen the first page of these photos (merely the title page of the book itself), but for obvious reasons I've declined to look at any others.
Not my words Carol, the words of Top Gear magazine.
I remember finding out Dumbledore died before reading the sixth book, and was still completely surprised when I read it, as if I had completely forgotten. People, THERE WAS NO HACKER. There was nothing to hack into that contained the book. The retailers have just received the books. The spoilers are fake. The scans are fake. Anyone with minimal intelligence on how to use Photoshop can make authentic-looking pages.
Also, the "legitimate" torrent that featured an advanced copy of the book was also fake. In fact, all fake spoilers that WERE featured as links on google have been deleted. Go figure, eh?
I'm surprised noone's has decided to just shoot voldermort in the head. Yes it's anticlimactic but it gets the job done.
Fat kids are harder to Kidnap.
Didn't they at one point say that muggle devices don't work in Hogwards? In that case, wizards should be able to disable guns if needed too.
