Bet you liked the football results yesterday. If Chelsea hadnt got the late equaliser your team may have been in with a very slim chance of winning the premiership. Seems as though you will be second though.

Yes. I am not sure why I bother, I am sure they get tons of them. But it such mail actually passes throgh a truckload of spam filters and such then I tend to assume it's a new thing.

My view is that is everyone thinks 'not going to bother someone else will pass them on' then the people doing it will just keep carrying on getting away with it.

I probably should be a good "netizen" and forward them but I prefer to just click delete and not waste time.

The emails I've ever bothered to forward to anyone, was a couple CP ones I got a few years back... Sent them to legal authorities...

adamthick 04-10-2005 08:33 AM

sometimes i do, sometimes i don't.

MickeyG 04-10-2005 08:50 AM

why bother

I've been known to pass on the paypal and ebay ones. They do seem to give a damn. I actually called Bank of America and Washington Mutual and they didn't seem to care....

There are just too many of them...

Got the same feeling. But perhaps that's because there must be thousands of people a day forwarding those mails ?
