I have just received this message from a friend:
i, this is Tara and John, the directors of MSN,
Sorry for the interruption but MSN is closing down. This is because too many inconsiderate people are taking up all the names (e.g. Making up lots of different accounts for just one person, etc.), we only have 587 names left. If you would like to close your account, DO NOT SEND THIS MESSAGE ON. If you would likr to keep your account, then SEND THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST..
This is no joke, we will be shutting down the servers.
Send it on, thanks.
P.S. WHOEVER DOES NOT SEND THIS MESSAGE, YOUR ACCOUNT WILL BE CLOSED AND IT WILL COST YOU 10.00 A MONTH TO USE. SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST. NOW YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO. PLEASE DO NOT FORWARD THIS or REPLY. COPY THE WHOLE EMAIL. GO BACK TO YOUR INBOX AND CLICK ON NEW. AND PASTE THANKYOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION.
This is no joke if you dont believe us then go to this site: http://news.BBC.co.UK/1/hi/business/1189119.stm and see for yourself. Anyways once you've sent this message to at least 18 contacts, your MSN icon will become blue. Please copy and paste, dont forward because people wont read them.
