Subject: Fwd: YAHOO IS CLOSING DOWN





Hi everyone





be blessed in this wonderful season





Dear YAHOO User,





Because of the sudden rush of people signing up to YAHOO, it has come to our attention that we are vastly running out of resources. So, within a month's time,anyone who does not receive this email with the exact subject heading,will be deleted off our server. Please forward this email so that we know you are still using this account.


We want to find out which users are actually using their YAHOO accounts. So if you are using your account, please pass this e-mail to every YAHOO user that you can and IF YOU DO NOT PASS this letter to anyone we will delete your account.





From Mr. ALLEN SMITH


YAHOO Admin. Dept.





Our YAHOO system is getting to crowded!! We need you to forward this to at least 20 people. I know this seems like a large number, but we need to find out who is really using their account. If you do not send t his to at least 10 YAHOO members, we will delete your account. Sorry for this inconvenience.


Sincerely, Director of YAHOO Services


BOB LOPEZ

Reply:You surely didn't need to copy the entire message just so we'd understand you got a bogus message from Yahoo. And I sincerely hope you weren't foolish enough to send this bogus message to 20 of your best friends so they could perpetuate this ridiculous crap. Yahoo has kindly given us all a spam button for such things as this. Please use it.
Reply:That is not true cz they would have sent that to everyone and only a few pwoplw got it
