I just received this in my mailbox. I am doing just as it said to do
because I don't like hindsite.
I thought you might want to hear these warnings !!!
Please pass them on.
VIRUS WARNING !!!!!!!
If you receive an email titled "It Takes Guts to Say’ Jesus’" DO NOT open
it. It will erase everything on your hard drive. Forward this letter
out to as many people as you can. This is a new, very malicious virus
and not many people know about it. This information was announced
yesterday morning from IBM; please share it with everyone that might
access the internet. Once again, pass this along to EVERYONE in your
address book so that this may be stopped. Also, do not open or even look
at any mail that says "RETURNED OR UNABLE TO DELIVER." This virus will
attach itself to your computer components and render them useless.
Immediately delete any mail items that say this. AOL has said that this
is a very dangerous virus and that there is NO remedy for it at this
time. Please practice cautionary measures and forward this to all your
online friends ASAP.
BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU GO TO MOVIE THEATERS. PLEASE CHECK YOUR SEATS BEFORE
YOU SIT DOWN!!!
An incident occured when a friends co-worker went to sit in a chair and
something was poking her. She then got up and found that it was a needle
with a little note at the end. It said, " Welcome to the real world,
you’re "HIV positive". Doctors tested the needle and it was HIV
POSITIVE. BE CAREFUL WHEN GOING TO THE MOVIES!!!! If you must go to the
movies, please, please check!!! One of the safest ways is NOT by
sticking your hand down in the seat. Move the seat part way up and down
a few times and REALLY look. Most of us just plop down in the seats.
The following is important, too....
Pay telephone drug users are now taking their used needles and putting
them into the coin return slots in public telephones.
People are putting their fingers in to recover coins or just to check if
anyone left change. They are getting stuck by these needles and infected
with hepatitis, HIV and other diseases. This message is posted to make
everyone aware of this danger. Beware! The change isn’t worth it! This
info came from the Metro Police about the theaters and the Phone company
about the coin slots.
PLEASE FORWARD TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!!
