It must be true, it says so in the email. ![]()
FFS, you'd think if someone was going to do a spot of scare-mongering, they'd have the common decency to send out an original message - that one has been doing the rounds since Adam was a lad. |

I have seen that one a few times as well. I just ignore them. It is the modern paranoid version of the chain letter. |

I usually do a reply all and explain that anyone who fell for the email is a pleb. I usually get a load of hassle off my Mum as she usually sends them to me... |

I sometimes point out to senders of such emails, that disseminating chain email is specifically against the terms and conditions of their email accounts. This is certainly true for Yahoo! users, who in my experience are the most likely to re-send such stuff. http://info.yahoo.com/legal/uk/yahoo/utos-173.html/ Section g: "upload, post, email or otherwise transmit any unsolicited or unauthorised advertising, promotional materials, "junk mail," "spam," "chain letters," "pyramid schemes," or any other form of solicitation, except in those areas that are designated for such purpose;" |
