All Things Microsoft > Microsoft as a Company
has anyone seen this pitch?
voidmain:
The first thing you should do when you get an email like this that you are suspicious about is to go to http://www.urbanlegends.com/ and search for some of the text of the message. 99.999% of the time you will find it is a scam. The web used to be a good place. Today the only place on the web that isn't a scam is http://www.fuckmicrosoft.com/

i got the same one a while ago. It says two weeks, but the dates in all of the FW: fwd: fwd: FWD: etc etc, spanned three months. I responded by sending the entire text of a "hoaxbuster" web page detailing the email to everone the email reader could lift out of the email. After a few times of doing this (and for various virii) my friends and aquantances stopped sending them to me.
