Chain mail – Are you really helping others?

Once in a while I will receive some chain mail from friends regarding about saving someone by forwarding this e-mail to others. To be honest to tell everybody, I will delete the mail as soon as I found out. Cold-blooded right? But, did you all really spend some time thinking what can you help by forwarding the e-mail? Are you really helping them or you are just falling into a trap of spammer?

Seriously, did you believing by forward more e-mail to others and the one mention in the e-mail will receive more donation? Are you thinking by just forwarding more e-mail to others, will save the child from rape by others in Africa? I will tell you, you did not help anyone of them yet you are pulling all your friends in your contact list into the trap of scammer/spammer. This kind of e-mail is how they gather your e-mail address and sell to scammer/ spammer, or they are the scammer/spammer.

I just received 2 e-mails about South Africa's Child Protection Unit is to be closed and urges recipients to "sign" a message protesting the closure before sending it to others. After a simple search on Google, I found that the e-mail is just another scam e-mail.

Now ask yourself, are you really helping others or you just a helper of scammer/spammer? Think twice before you forward an e-mail to your friend next time. A kind heart which trying to help others is good, but don’t let other misuse it.

Attacked by spam

Recently, I receive a lot of spam mail, especially streamyx mail which don’t have any build-in Spam filtering system receive almost at least 1 spam mail every hour. This problem really annoyed me when the notification will notify me every time receive the spam mail. I don’t need any medication to prove that I’m a male and I don’t want to earn and fast money by bank transfer. Spammer! Just left me alone!

Recently my mobile phones also receive a lot of spam SMS since I joining a lucky draw contest organize by public bank. Yes, is from Public bank, the contest form is given by their customer service worker to me. The SMS is not from Digi, but from some unknown numbers. Now I cannot stop relating the Public bank with the spammer…

Ahh… I hate spammer!!! I HATE THEM ALL!!!

P.S.: To all my friend, don’t send me meaningless empty mail (no content inside) and please put a title for your e-mail and please write something in the content although you are just send me file using e-mail, because my mail filtering system is very sensitive and myself also very sensitive, I might delete your e-mail before read it.
