i always receive mails that tell me to forward or resend to 10, 20, or all people in my contacts,and after that, my true love will tell me he loves me, or ill get rich.. or else i would have a badluck, ill get sick, and worst, ill die.. its such a crap.. i mean who could tell me what happens to my life? i cant even really predict where my life is going.. are there even proof that these are true?

I hate chain letters and emails and delete them on the spot. I don't forward them to others, and despite all manner of silly*threats* I will happily delete them. Hardly a week goes by without me finding at least one of these wretched things in my inbox and I have asked all my friends not to send them to me in the hope that it will stop.

Hi there sugaree! I always ignore chain letters. I never forward any of them no matter to whom they came from and what threatens me to do if I don't do what it asks me to do.

There is no reason to believe in them. I got a lot of chain letters. If there are no proofs that it is true but i know for a fact that it doesn't work. I personally do not send chain letters because it is really rude. It's like threatening your friends at some point. It also takes precious time away from them just to send those messages. Also, chain letters in emails are used by spammers. That's were they get emails to spam. They have programs that crawl the forwarded messages list and then they keep the data and what do you know by sending the message you are one of the new victims of spam. In my personal experience, I haven't sent a single chain letter yet I am perfectly fine! I can even consider myself perfectly lucky and happy. I still get what I want and the threats posted by these messages don't really translate into reality.

haha youre absolutely right. theres really no scientific explanation of how those threats could happen if you dont forward them.. i dont really know what has gotten into the minds of those who make them :D
