Cancer
chain letter
This is a widespread chain letter, which asks people to send
e-mail messages to benefit a cancer patient. There are several
different versions of this chain letter, some of them mentioning
specific patients. These messages are hoaxes and they are not
endorsed by any cancer organisations. Do not pass them on. The
[email protected] address does not exists. Here's an example of this
chain letter:
Please forward this message to EVERYONE you know. The
American Cancer Society gets 3 cents every time this message is
forwarded. Please make sure that you cc: American Cancer
Society...([email protected])
And
here's another version:
Subject: This is not a chain! It could save a little girls life!
o.k. you guys..... this isn't a chain letter, but a choice for all
of us to save a little girl that's dieing of a serious and fatal form
of cancer. please send this to everyone you know...or don't know at
that. this little girl has 6 months left to live her life, and as
her dieing wish, she wanted to send a chain letter telling everyone
to live their life to fullest, since she never will. she'll never
make it to prom, graduate from high school, of get married and have
a family of her own. but by you sending this to as many people as
possible, you can give her and her family a little hope, because
with every name that this is semnt to, the american cancer society
will donate 3 cents per name to her treatment and recovery plan.
one guy sent this th 500 people !!!! so, i know that we can send
it to at least 5 or 6. come on you guys.... and if you're too damn
selfish to waste 10-15 minutes and scrolling this and forwarding it
to EVERYONE, than one: you're one sick bastard, and two: just think
it could be you one day....and it's not even your $money$, just your
time. i know that ya'll will impress me !!!! i love ya'll !!!!!
peace-

Welcome to my hoax section if
you encounter a message about a virus please send to [email protected]
or call me on ICQ#22015420
I
do not spread hoaxes! these pages are simply to inform
other users that they are hoaxes. Please to not spread
hoaxes. Hoax warnings are typically scare alerts started
by malicious people - and passed on by innocent users
who think they are helping the community by spreading
the warning.
Do
not forward hoax messages. There have been cases where
e-mail systems have collapsed after dozens of users forwarded
a false alert to everybody in the company. Corporate users
can get rid of the hoax problem by simply setting a strict
company guideline: End users must not forward virus
alarms. Ever. If such message is received, end users could forward it to the IT department
but not to anyone else.
