I have just received an e-mail, forwarded from a friends address book with an M&S free voucher offer in the form a chain letter.
‘To receive your free vouchers by e-mail all you have to do is send this e-mail out to 8 people (for £100 of free vouchers) or 20 people (for £500 of free vouchers). Within 2 weeks you will receive an e-mail with your vouchers attached.’
I do not if it is infected or not, I just junked it. Does seem a bit ify to me.

How do M&S know you've done it?
Why would they pay £500 for a mail shot to 20 people?

It amazes me that people fall for this rubbish - not that I think you have FTL

Old ‘Fine tune’me? Never, a quick delete for me.
She does tend to send some strange things, so I am always a bit wary.

The old adages always apply on the Internet:

If it looks too good to be true, then it is too good to be true.

Nothing is for nothing.

A bit like our Councils stuffing our money in the Icelandic Internet Banks.
