Dri Hello everyone! 3nodding
Recently we have been receiving many reports about members sending the following chainletter message:Quote: If somebody by the name *dvorak@yahoo.com* adds you dont accept it.Its a virus.Tell everyone on ur bulletin because if somebody on ur list adds them u get the virus too.Tell everyone on your list not to open anything from angell11,tewwtuler,and sassybitch.Its a hard drive killer and a very horrible virus.If you dont pass this letter to everyone on your buddy list,we will delete your account.We need to find out who is really behind this.
What is a Chainletter?
A Chainletter is a message that tells you to send it to other people. On Gaia, Chainletters are considered spam, we ask that members do not participate in sending Chainletters to other members. Last but certainly not least, real Gaia staff would never threaten to delete your account for refusing to send a message. sad
