Gaaaa! (insert expletives)
Please don't send me hoaxes.
Here's what you do...
- Choose a phrase from the e-mail you've just received.
For example... "Bill Gates will pay for every e-mail you send" or "dying of cancer and wants a postcard"
- Enter it, with quotation marks" into your favourite search engine (I use Google).
- Beside the quote, add the word HOAX.
- Search.
If it's a hoax, (unless someone just started it two minutes ago), it will probably say so on
- Hoax-Slayer
- Snopes
- Urbanlegends.About.com
- and the facinating Museum of Hoaxes
- and others
(Disclaimer: yeah, yeah, I once sent a hoax to someone. You're allowed one.)
