i know its crap but has any other msn users had this?

Just checked my email and had this..
Dear Hotmail User,

Because of the sudden rush of people signing up to

Hotmail,it has come to our attention that we are vastly

running

out of resources. So, within a month's time, anyone who

does not

receive this email with the exact subject heading, will be

deleted off our server.Please forward this email so that

we know

you are still using this account.

WARNING WARNING

We want to find out which users are actually using their

Hotmail

accounts. So if you are using your account, please pass

this

e-mail to every Hotmail user that you can and if you do

not pass

this letter to anyone we will delete your account.





From Mr. Jon Henerd

Hotmail Admin. Dept.


Our hotmail system is getting to crowded!! We need you to forward this to at least 20 people. I know this seems like a large number, but we need to find out who is really using their account. If you do not send this to at least 10 Hotmail members, we will delete your account. Sorry for this inconvenience.

Sincerely, Director of Hotmail Services

Aaron Lopez

Please do this! Some of my friends have already gotten deleted and you aren't allowed to send it back to the person who sent this email to you!!!



now has anyone else had this?
I hope this is a wind up, it probs is but i use msn like every nite!

Yeah got that a while back it sucks!
No more e-mails asking me if I want porn :(

That sounds about as fake as you can get.

Make sure you send it. They're serious, and they don't fuck around. I've heard if you forward it to 100 people Bill Gates will send you a free Xbox.

yah i deleted that... and nothing happend annd that was a long time ago. so its bs. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Microsoft running out of resources?

Uh, don't worry about it. And ignore all similar e-mails from anyone in the future, no matter how authentic they look. People that reply to things like that break the Internet.

Phew, thanks
i use msn an awful lot so i really dont want that to go down.

Any sort of notice you get saying "OMG THE WORLD IS ENDING. I mean our company is low on cash because of all the fame and millions of users we have is draining our resources."

Though Props to whoever did this prank first. As in.. the original "Send this message or die"

Speaking of email scams, look at this poor bastard. They got EVERYTHING.

Haw haw, AfA spells like an ape.

That e-mail is about as real as the supernatural powers of a mass-produced ouija board.

In other words, VERY REAL.
