Thread: No Petrol Day

What a load of rubbish. :mad:

The statistics don't add up as is usual in these weird chain emails. The only way the oil companies would be hurt is if we reduce our consumption as the day on which we buy our petrol is of no consequence to the oil companies but it would hurt the mostly independant service stations who employ staff without receiving income.

Also I doubt that we in Australia buy " 4.6 BILLION DOLLARS " worth of petrol in one day. Thus this appears to be another straight copy of some Seppo prankster's spam, and swearing at us as well. :mad:


Peter.

Gazza youve been sucked in by a mail that was doing the rounds 6 months back. One of the morning TV shows did the sums the other day and the conclusion was the figures just dont add up.

These emails seem innocent enough but theyre a devious way for spammers to harvest active email addresses...it works like this.

1. send out a bogus email to as many people as you can.
2. ask each recipient to forward the email to their friends.

The body of the email seems innocent enough but take a look at the header. Most people dont know how to or are just too lazy to use the blind copy feature on their email program. Consequently they blindly forward the email as received complete with dozens of active email addresses in the header.

Eventually the mails get into the hands of the spammers who then have more email addresses to either send their cr*p to or stick on a CD and sell to other spammers.
