So I just received an email from one of my friends saying this:
Anyone else here get this email or heard of this yet? Thoughts?
-
Uh, yeah; that would be called the ancient forward-me virus, which can clog up email inboxes much more effectively than most virii can, if properly drafted and spiced up with enough ALL-CAPS.
-
Get new friends....the ones you have are too gullible and socializing with them will only drag you down.
-
Haha a forward virus. Like shyster said. Its to lure all the gullible into clogging the tubes.
Rule number 1 for emails: If Snopes is EVER mentioned, its not true. Snopes is a load of crap.
Rule number 2: Nothing of general importance is chain mailed through email.
There is no such thing as a HUGE Virus coming. Its not like it floats in the clouds and raining down on unsuspecting and innocent users. Virus's just happen. -
There's always a huge virus coming, just like there is always another apocolypse....
...they just never quite get here.... -
Oh yes... I've heard about this "Huge Virus" alright.
Try checking these links as they explain exactly what that is:
Hallmark Postcard Virus? Yeah Right...
Postcard' or 'Postcard from Hallmark' Virus Hoax
These so-called "postcard" virus hoaxes have been around since 2008 and there are different variations that Norton/Symantec have claimed to be hoaxes.
Don't worry about it buddy... -
Ive been getting those for years now. Each one is slightly re-worded.
No virus can burn a hole in your C Drive.
...At least not yet.
"Huge Virus Coming"? Anyone else heard of this yet?
