Chain Letters

This is a small matter but one that I felt had to be included somewhere in this document. Many days do we all receive that chain letter in our email inbox. Just like when you receive them at home, you are expected to forward them to a certain number of people if you dont want to have bad luck.
Often these emails tell you that some person ignored their chain letter and they had been hit by a car or something, and that those who sent the email won the lottery or something like that. These emails are also spam.
I dont know of one person that had bad luck simply by ignoring the chain letter. Actually their luck improved because the spammers stopped sending that particular email. There was one particular spam mail that is used quite a bit and it gets more and more popular by the day. It works similar to a chain letter.
This email is sent by a lawyer that insists that the email is a promotion for Microsofts Bill Gates. It basically states that if you send the email to as many people as you can you will receive a check from Microsoft for helping them with their promotion.
It also states that you receive a check that is bigger if the people you send the emails to send them to others. Of course it then tells you that if it is a scam, what have you really lost, but that if its true, you can earn some money.
No matter what your chain letters say, DO NOT OPEN THEM! They are lies. By forwarding these types of emails, you are helping the spammers get even more viable email addresses. And since you are forwarding them to your friends, you have just allowed the spammers to get their claws on them too. Your friends will not thank you.

It can be a real bother to go through all of the effort it takes to sign yourself up for a contest that has been set up specifically to harvest your email address. These come in the form of cookies and temporary internet files. They are called spyware, and adware. It is rare that anybody thinks that they can receive spam simply from putting out their contact information, but it is the easiest way to do it. Naturally one of the most popular reasons that people use the internet is to send emails to others. Some free email service providers have some pretty good blockers services to accommodate you a bit better.

You could gather up to 50 cookies a day depending on how many websites that you visit during the day. Other popular companies use affiliations to assist them with keeping their costs down, eventually leaving the consumer with a pretty good rate. It does take some extra time on your part to go through these policies, but you can save yourself the effort of having to go through and delete spam, which is more annoying. This is the email that you would give your contacts or safe people.
