MSN Email doing the rounds, genuine?
Just had this in my inbox. looks fake, but with all the news going about with regarding MSN costing us in the future anyway, what you think.?
This is the email...
Quote:
Hey it is tara and john the directors of MSN, sorry for the interruption but
msn is closing down. this is because too many inconsiderate people are
taking up all the name (eg making up lots of different accounts for just one
person), we only have 578 names left. If you would like to close your
account, DO NOT SEND THIS MESSAGE ON. If you would like to keep your
account , then SEND THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST. This is no
joke , we will be shutting down the servers. Send it on, thanks. WHO EVER
DOES NOT SEND THIS MESSEAGE, YOUR ACCOUNT WILL BE CLOSED AND YOU WILL COST
10.00 A MONTH TO USE. SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST. NOW YOU
KNOW WHAT TO DO. PLEASE DO NOT FORWARD THIS or REPLAY. COPY THE WHOLE EMAIL.
GO BACK TO YOUR INBOX AND CLICK ON NEW. AND PASTE THANK YOU FOR YOUR
ATTENTION. It's no joke if you don't believe me then go to the site
( BBC NEWS | Business | MSN 'to charge user fee' ) and see for yourself.
Anyways once you've sent this message to at least 18 contacts, your msn dude
will become blue.

The BIGGEST give away that this is fake is the fact that the article it links to is almost 7 years old.....
The second clue is that it claims there are only 578 names left. how many billions up billions of accounts would it take to use them all up???? Remember, you can register with ANY email address which expands the availability even more!!
Finally, how the hell can MSN track how many messages you have sent?
These scams really annoy me since so many people believe them. It is just another variant of chain mail.
Tell 10 people and you wish will come true
Tell less than 1,000 and everyone you have ever spoken to will die a horrible death....
Grrrrrrrrrrr
