TRUST ME,THIS IS GOOD!

You can earn between £100 and £500 of vouchers and we can all help ourselves to earn them on our forum.I need atleast 8 e-mail addy's but ideally 20 to forward details to.what have you to lose?make a spare address up if you are unsure.I will be trying anyway and just thought it would be good to share with everyone else.

regards

Are you sure it`s good?

Email wind-up offers M&S vouchers
Security experts have issued warnings over a bogus chain email claiming to offer hundreds of pounds in M&S vouchers.

The message, seeking to exploit the success of viral campaigns such as Threshers’ last year, promises the vouchers to recipients that forward it on to at least eight people.

It purports to be a joint promotion by M&S and housebuilding company Persimmon Homes, but both companies have advised anyone receiving the email to delete it immediately.

Security group Sophos warned computer users not to be fooled by the hoax as doing so could leave them susceptible to identity theft, as well as highlighting the potential problems for businesses.

Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at the firm, said:

"Hoaxes of this nature may appear harmless but they can waste valuable bandwidth, impact staff productivity and place email addresses into the wrong hands. Email spreads like wildfire and forwarding one copy could result in 100 more being sent - some of which could potentially reach cybercriminals.”

When things seem to be too good to be true, they usually are m8, wasnt trying to put a damper on things, just trying to get you to look at it more, i sometimes think with 2,000+ members on this forum, if we could do some kind of buying power thing say if enough want new hdds etc if we could get them cheaper and so on..may be worth looking into..

Is it me? I get the impression that the number of postings to the forum is down of late. I think if you offered to give away £50 notes, you'd not create a stir.

Obviously, no forum members in Halifax. The forum would be full of postings if there were. It's still winter coat weather here in the mornings and an umbrella is an essential.
