Story: MSN: Hotmail 'forwarding' message a hoax
Posted by: josh (Friday 30 September 2005, 11:31 AM)
If MSN WANTED to inform people of a mass shutdown we would receive an OFFICIAL MESSAGE from MSN, and it would be posted ON THEIR SITE, they KNOW WHO USES THEIR ACCOUNTS.
What is forwarding an ENGLISH (note how many countries and LANGUAGES use MSN) worded dodgy message that gets garbled each time it is forwarded by every man and his dog going to SAVE your email?
DO YOU KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS A BLUE "MSN DUDE"!?
Oh very legit, its a Microsoft conspiracy, disrupt world communication, the multi-billion dollar corp needs more money! One word: Yop.
Im disapointed in a lot of you. I thought you were smarter than that. THe only thing spamming the world with CRAP will achieve is succeeding to end email by CRASHING the hotmail servers with a flood of "OMG UR ACCOUNT IS IN DANGER!!!?!"
Please. Get a grip. Keep the Net Clean.
No hard feelings,
Josh, Fighting the war on SPAM.
