    I received a similar one claiming to be from Microsoft/Intel . Was very quickly deleted .

    If it sounds to good to be true , then it probably is . £500 worth of vouchers just for sending 20 emails ! M & S would go bankrupt in a week ! They want to spread information by word of mouth , but yet they're sending an email , thats not word of mouth , and M & S spend millions a year on advertising . How do they know you've sent out the 20 emails , they would have no way of tracking it ?

    I recieved this today, just after someone sent me the Persimon Homes post
    A hoax e-mail is being circulated offering a promotion of free Marks and Spencer vouchers for forwarding the e-mail to colleagues and friends.

    Neither Marks and Spencer or Persimmon Homes have made any such promotional offer.

    Please delete the hoax e-mail and notify the people to whom you have sent it that it is a hoax.

    Marks & Spencer are not stupid and they probably dont expect their customers to be either, but it does happen.
