WIYE!
This is why I only send these out from my “old address”…. That account gets about 300 spams a day… Too bad its spam filter doesn’t work…
Bro. this is great info. to keep from getting
so much junk mail, (SPAM),…this will also help,
to keep from getting viruses,…and cookies, loading down
your computer,…and slowing it down, just before costly repair,…
This kind of crap, that SNOPES, speaks of, is the type of
time waster non sense,…that keeps the sluggish, of the
brain rot crowd,… mindlessly occupied, (coma) 8-10 hours a day,…
Remember, the internet, with it’s scams,…is just like the scams
we get in our Snail Mail,…this crap is aimed at the “Slow of Mind”,…
who are their easy prey !!
Worth reading and remembering……………………………..

Another good reason to “NOT PARTICIPATE IN ANY CHAINS”!!!
I f any of you are wondering why I didn’t return something to you that said something like ‘if I don’t get this back I’ll….or, ‘See how many flowers you can get back’, or ‘ Forward this to 10 people in the next 5 mins. or something bad will happen to you’, etc. The following is why I don’t send them back.
This email is the exception that proves the rule!
Advice from Snopes.Com
1) Any time you see an E-Mail that says forward this on to ’10′ of your
friends, sign this petition, or you’ll get bad luck, good luck, or whatever,
it almost always has an E-Mail tracker program attached that tracks the
cookies and E-Mails of those folks you forward to. The host sender is
getting a copy each time it gets forwarded and then is able to get lists of
‘active’ E-Mails to use in SPAM E-Mails, or sell to other spammers.
2) Almost all E-Mails that ask you to add your name and forward on to others
are similar to that mass l etter years ago that asked people to send
business cards to the little kid in Florida who wanted to break the Guinness
Book of Records for the most cards. All it was, and all any of this type of
E-Mail is, is a way to get names and ‘cookie ‘ tracking information for
telemarketers and spammers – - to validate active E-Mail accounts for their
own profitable purposes.
You can do your friends and family members a GREAT favor (PLEASE) by
sending this information to them; you will be providing a service to your
friends, and will be rewarded by not getting thousands of spam E-Mails in
the future!
If you have been sending out (FORWARDING) the above kinds of E-Mail, now you
know why you get so much SPAM!
Do yourself a favor and STOP adding your name(S) to those types of listings
regardless how inviting they might sound! You may think you are supporting
a GREAT cause, but you are NOT in the long run. Instead, you will be getting
tons of junk mail later! Plus, we are helping the spammers get rich! Let’s
don’t make it easy for them!
Also: E-Mail petitions are NOT acceptable to Congress or any other
organization. To be acceptable, petitions must have a signed signature and
full address of the person signing the petition.
