Chain Emails

A friend of mine sent me one of these chain emails things. I hate these things. I hate chain emails. I absolutely abhor the ones that tell you to forward it on because something will happen, and they tried it and it’s true! Well I can tell you that of all the people that I know that forwarded me these emails they are neither rich, nor surrounded by beautiful naked women.

In any case, this is one of the ones that you are supposed to fill out and then chain-mail off somewhere else…..ad naseum. But, I decided to answer it on here…and I didn’t have anything better to write about at the moment.

Dude, you might want to tell your readers that this type of email is a phishing scam. Typically, they'll ask things like where you're from, what's your birthday, etc. They'll put in a lot of other crap just to disguise it, but all they really want is your personal details. Then, they can request a birth certificate, open an account, etc. You get the idea. Never, EVER respond to these types of emails. It's just too easy to steal your identity from them. Too easy.

Cops are starting to catch sex predators who claim that they can actually hunt down and find children's homes from this type of information.

That's a good point. This email obviously didn't have enough personal information in it, but I've seen ones that do.

Thanks for the tip!
