Where is the net cartoon with the guy ranting about net urban legends, ie., "Bill Gates will NOT send you money, there is no kid in England that wants your get well cards", etc.

My (usually intelligent) BIL just sent me the Gates-money-for-forwarding-emails thing.

I must publically humiliate him. Holidays are coming.

Thanks!

I've never seen the cartoon, but I usually embarrass them by sending them the link (http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/nothing/microsoft-aol.asp) to snopes debunking the scam. :rolleyes:

Delete the link, would ya'?

I'm running Norton and I got nothing. Better safe than sorry, though.

When my bank opens Monday morning I'm going to be rich!

I just sent my account information to a very nice prince from Camaroon who is going to deposit $20 million in my account and is giving me 10% for helping him out. The timing is perfect since my envelope stuffing business isn't earning me the $5,000 a week I expected. I wasn't looking forward to selling a kidney to pay my bills so I am relieved.

Since I recently purchased a foolproof system to win at casino games, I am going to use my new fortune to get even richer. Life is good.

(disclaimer for those who think I didn't make all this up) :D

I got my money from Gates, like, 5 years ago! No one else did? :gomer:

Oh Well...
