MSN charging for its services!! Forward this to all your contacts!!

I have received countless e-mails form my friend with a similar title to the one above. The most recent one being this one...

Subject: FW: All msn / hotmail usersDate: Tue, 6 May 2008 13:09:52 +0000
Good afternoon all msn / hotmail users, I am Tara and together with all the directors of MSN, we apologized for the interruption.

Please be informed that msn is closing down due to the increasing numbers of inconsideration. In our current report, it has clearly showed that there is an overflowing percentage of population using one name to sign up for lots of new and different accounts. This draws us to a shortage of new username accounts. Report shave shown that we are left with only FIVE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY EIGHT names. So this actually forced us to close down as many wasted accounts as possible for our company sake.

To do so, our company has decided to use this idea. If you would like to keep this existing account, please kindly follow the instructions given below.

01: Copy this entire email.
02: Go back to inbox, and click on new
03: Right click paste
04: Sent this to all the names / emails address in your contact

(*To help you to ensure that you have followed to given instructions, once you sent this email to all your names / emails address in your contact , your msn will turn blue) ** Closing date: 30 JUNE 2008 If you would like to close your existing msn / hotmail account, ignore the FOUR (04)steps given above. Any new account that is being signed up for will be charged at the cost of US$10.00 a month.

Please go to http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/1189119.stm more details. Thank you for your understanding. Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com/


Oh my gosh! MSN is gonna charge for its service?? TOTAL BOLLOCKS!!

First of all, MSN makes MILLIONS in just from its ads, anyone of those annoying animation ad that you see bellow your MSN Messanger costs a bomb!

Secondly, why would MSN staff BOTHER to send this kinda personally to their contacts? They can just freakin send a MASS MESSAGE to all its users, thats isn't that difficult! They do it all the time whenever there is a new version of Messanger out!

Thirdly, if you'd actually read the TERMS AND CONDITIONS before singning up, you'd know that if your account is inactive for 9 months it will be AUTOMATICALLY DELETED.

Furthermore, your 'MSN guy' wouldn't change blue even if you did senD this to all your contacts? Have you seen it turn blue?

Need more convincing? I had received at LEAST 20 similar e-mails and did absolute-ly nothing! And i can still use MSN FREE!

Need more proof? Try these sites... (just copy and paste in your address bar, don't worry, I personally guarantee there you can't get any virus thingy this way.)

This is a HOAX its just a CHAINMAIL, probably started by some lonely bastard that doesn't receive enough e-mails from his/her contacts. If whoever started this kinda crap is reading this, read on... GET A LIFE.

Don't bother sending this sorta crap, don't worry about being charged or getting your MSN or Yahoo or Friendster account being delete, it won't happen, IT'S A HOAX.

I am so sick of getting chainmails, and you know whats worst? Those "Pity this girl" chainmails, the ones with pictures of deformed babies or children with ugly burns, that get you to forward the e-mail to all your contacts to get "support" for them.
I actually pity the poor baby, and i know too well that sending e-mails don't do any difference, if some billionaire actually wanted to donate to this he'd just freakin do so! Why'd he bother to ask people for signatures and support. And some idiot actually used the poor girl's picture to get more e-mails!!! F_cking @$$#01e!
