My sister once sent me an email like that Birdeye Send a noteboard - 25/09/2010 07:49:39 AM
I replied with something like:

"That chain mail was completely false. You just stamped stupid onto your forehead by forwarding that."

Keep in mind that this is to my favorite family member.

She never sent me another chain mail again. She even asked me a few times if messages she got were legit.
