I have friends from all over the world. They are either Canadian, American, Korean, Filipino, Chinese, Japanese or South African.
And I receive lots of e-mails from all of them daily, but all of my South African friends send mails that have to be sent to 10 or more friends in order to receive a miracle. Why is that? And what do you think about these chain-mail letters?

Hey guys, I'm actually looking for more examples of how gullible we are. The chain-letter thing is just one of the things that bother me. Please answer my question and name some other gullible things as well. You know I love you all, but be real,ok?

I agree, I'm always receiving fowards, at least 20 a day from South Africans. They're either bored or gullible.

What! You're actually asking this question??? lol!!

Those chain letters go around a lot. I get tons a day. We don't believe in them but pass them around just for the fun of it or whatever. I do get annoyed with those chain letters but send them on in any case to let my family and friends know that i say hi and whatever else! We don't only get chain letters, we get plenty other types of e-mails.

Whether you're in England, Korea, Japan or South Africa we can all be gullible or easy to deceive or not. Some people are, some people aren't. Just because we are here in South Africa doesn't make us gullible and easy to deceive.

Hi Thanks for the 10points hope it managed to help you.

Anyways i don't think we that gullible. It just depends on the person as South Africans with different cultures and belief we tend to be more optimistic.

Some people would say that chain massages are a way to keep us all united and in touch and about the miracles i personally think that's stupid, my view is that these people don't have faith and hope in themselves that they look for artificial hope.

Are we easy to deceive?
50% yes 50% No
Majority of us are lazy and always trying to look for solutions to make things move faster and so on.....

In the end it's depend on the individual

PS: Do forgive me if i offend anyone

look you are really generalizing here, I am South African - and none of my friends send those messages on. I believe they are nonsence, but some may find it is a way of wishing you well, or something like that.

You will find gullible people in many countries, just look around - there might be someone like that within 10 feet of you right now...

lol!
Hey you over there in Seoul, are you alright?
What's wrong with my bald head? I'm always bald anyway, lol.
You know I've just come back from work and turned on a PC, only to be striken with laughter by your answer.
Ya! You are testing missiles there in Korea? I don't care if it's North and you're South, the bottom line is you're still in Korea, ha ha ha!
Well I hope this message is not one of the chain-mails.
Moja.
