Hi Jan and all
=20
If you ever get an e-mail with the following text inside:
<< Send this mail to everywone you know!!! >>
then you can be shure, that this mail is NOT from Microsoft, NOT from =
MCAfee
or any other
"Big Player".=20
The reason is simple: This mail is a sort of virus by itself. This way =
you
can attack
the mail-system of a company easily.
=20
In fact such mails can block the mail-traffic of a company and lead to =
high
costs.
Therefore they are called "HOAX".
=20
HOAXes tell you to "help people with cancer", they tell you about =
"deadly
viruses"
and seem always to have good reasons to be informed about.
In reality they just take a lot of traffic if there is such a virsu in
reality or not.
Make a calculation based on real facts:=20
=20
A company has 1000 employees.=20
1 of them gets this HOAX and he sends it to 10 people HE KNOWS to WARN =
them.
5 of them delete the mail, the rest 5 sent them to between 5 and 15 =
other
people ... and so on.
How MANY MAILS flood this company after 5 hours and 5 Generations ? ?
=20
No dangerous virus ever made such problems to big companies then it was
already done by HOAXES,
so here my tip: NEVER sent away any mail that says=20
<< Send this mail to everywone you know!!! >>
=20
