chain letters

(Marked as spam) alrite guys i dun rly believe in this stuf but i just had a fight with my mom n dont want to take any chances so plz spread this!!! 180 Years ago in Scotland, a castle maiden was mystically thrown out of the tower window and she drowned in river below. Ever since she has been haunting women who are alone at night. If you don't copy+paste this to 5 videos the maiden will kill your mother in 24 hours.

 

 

 

Hmm... I wonder how one goes about throwing someone out a window in a mystic fashion :-k

 

 

 

The mental image for that is freaking awesome.

I think the ones who actually send these on are the insecure teenage girls who will believe anything that will improve their love life. I have never got a chain letter from a fella.

 

Now that you mention it, I'll have to +1 this.

 

 

 

I hate chain letters, they have no purpose. I should have died about 212 times, have bad luck for the next millennia or so (this one may be true, if I believed in luck), lost the love of my life about 173 times, and so on and so forth.

 

 

 

I used to send chain letters back with the ending: "If you don't repost this in the next *insert random number here* minutes/hours/days/years, absolutely nothing bad will happen to you, you idiot."...I used to put in random threats to the person if they were consistant spammers (such as "although, I rather hope some crazy undead girl would come and devour you").

 

 

 

My mom used to be bad with this, sending chain letters or chain-prayers...So much so I made a new e-mail, got on her account, and changed the e-mail address from my old account to my new one. Logged in to it today and there's over 120 unread messages :lol:

www.hoax-slayer.com is a great site with lots of chain letters proven wrong and other internet scams :)

You see, I'm the kinda guy who reads the chain letter, dumps most of them and picks a select few to forward. With addons. With cheesy Yo-Mom jokes. Your the kinda guy who hates me.

Gah! I HATE these things! #-o

Woot, I got siggied :thumbsup:

 

 

 

Anyway I recently received an email that claims to be a petition from a teenage kid who wants 9/11 to be national firefighters day. The petition had over 300 signitures. I'm not sure if it's an honest email or one of those "sympathy" chains where the chain is passed by good people who think they're helping but really just passing a chain (kind of like those emails where a dying woman claims Yahoo will give her 10 cents for healthcare each time its forewarded), anyone else get this who can tell me? Hoax-Slayer doesn't seem to have it.

I barely ever get chain letters anymore, but I still get Nigerian 419 scammers and their variations every now and then to my email, sometimes it's a chinese variant, even had a french one.

 

 

 

It's fun to befriend the scammer & waste their time, asking for instructions on how to send them money without the intent of paying :lol: Some people even bait them for sport, and get them to send like $20-$30 for "Western Union fees" and counter-scam them, I just stick to replies though..

 

 

 

 

 

Unfortunately I ruined my last one by accidentally CCing it back to the scammer while forwarding it to someone to request assistance with the bait.

I remeber I got one at 2am in the morning. I just said to myself "Someone better be DIEING!!!"

 

Then I open it and it said something along the lines of

 

"Hi, my name is [insert innocent common Girl name here] and I am turning 10 today, but I am ded, and I have no eyes. If u dnt send dis to 10 ppl I will be over your bed at 4am with a knife."

 

I just replied with this.

 

"If you keep on sending me bull like this at 2 am in the morning or at any time. I will appear over your bed with a knife at 4am in the morning!"

[Ouchy]

I sometimes wonder what the average age/IQ of the people that make these chain letters. They must be immature to even bother starting it.

 

The only benefit you could possible receive from this in making chain letter is getting banned from the website you posted it on. Wait, that is not a benefit... (For them ;-))

[Intriguing]

They make me feel warm inside.

I think it actually takes a creative mind to make one of those extremely long ones, it's the ones who keep spreading them that are the idiots

[Saru Inc]

No one ever sends them to me, haven't gotten one in a good number of years.

 

 

 

 

 

Same, tbh I wish I'd get em though. They're funny to read, my mom gets em.
