I recently opened my email after having been away from the computer for around 2 weeks, and it really suprised me how many friends forward me chain letters that says that if you forward this, a certain person undergoing an operation, will recieve a certain amount of money. Do you actually believe this? What's your points of view with regards to the creators of this scam?

i just think it's bull, i used to get chain letters from an ex girlfriend of mine and then one day i said to her plz, stop forwarding me these chain letters, i just delete them anyway and she stopped doin it so now i don't get any anymore but i hate those people that create it.

Yeah, I agree. I usually delete such letters and stop forwarding them to avoid complaints from my friends :D
At least your ex paid attention, my friends, try as I might to dissuade them to stop, still goes on to forwarding me such chain letters.

i had been receiving a lot of chain letters in my email account. but i know it's a chain letter just by reading the first few lines so i don't bother finishing the whole email. and i just erase them from my inbox. it's better that way so i won't think of anything else.
people who does these scams are people who think that there are lots of stupid people around the world. what they didn't know of that people nowadays are clever enough to know what's a scam and not.
