Dear Hotmail User,
Because of the sudden rush of people signing up to
Hotmail,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.
WARNING WARNING
We want to find out which users are actually using their Hotmail
accounts. So if you are using your account, please pass this
e-mail to every Hotmail user that you can and if you do not pass
this letter to anyone we will delete your account.
From Mr. Jon Henerd
Hotmail Admin. Dept.
Our hotmail 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 this to at least 10 Hotmail members, we will delete your account. Sorry for this inconvenience.
Sincerely, Director of Hotmail Services
Aaron Lopez
Please do this! Some of my friends have already gotten deleted and you aren't allowed to send it back to the person who sent this email to you!!!
OHMIGOD!

I'm afraid he's mistaken, in order to keep your account you have to REPLY to the person who sent it 20 times, not send it to 20 different people.

My response to those has been to "bomb" the account that sent it to me. What's that? I send an insanely huge email to them, eats up all their storage  |

| sometimes i amuse myself (when i find an address that i can actually reply to in my junkmail) by finding huge chunks of text in the weirdest characters (bengali is good for starters) and send it back. a few times. |
