hey everyone,
i dont normally send this sort of stuff out but had a look on the internet
and its actually true . On the 1st of november , we will have to pay for the
use of our MSN and email accounts unless we send this message to at least 18
contacts on your contact list. It's no joke if you don't believe me then go
to the 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 dude will become blue. please copy and paste don't forward cos
people won't take notice of it.

---------------

just got this from a friend aint sure if its true but it doesnt say send it to loads of ppl to get it for free anyway?

what do u guys think?

saying that I did once help a young girl get cured of cancer by forwarding a similar message on ICQ to 5 people on my list, and those five people were not even doctors at the time (although one was a vet, but I dont think he helped her).

Lol

Why'd you even believe this for a second? It's quite obviously one of those stupid chain things, and why would Microsoft stop making their services free just because someone didn't send a message to 18 of their contacts? Use your head

We all can't be super humans like urself!!!

I'm sorry but if you think about it sending it to 18 people would mean that anyone using the email after a couple of days would hear about msn if they haven't already and the bbc website to back it up that they may be charging (fair enough it was out of date) but this made me think (or not think according to u)
