read all of this because i added on the end. Hey it is Andy and John
the
directors of MSN, sorry for the interruption but msn is closing down.
this
is because too many inconsiderate people are taking up all the name (eg
making up lots of different accounts for just one person), we only have
578
names left. If you would like to close your account, DO NOT SEND THIS
MESSAGE ON. If you would like to keep your account, then SEND THIS
MESSAGE
TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST. This is no joke, we will be shutting
down
the servers. Send it on, thanks. WHO EVER DOES NOT SEND THIS MESSAGE,
YOUR
ACCOUNT WILL BE CLOSED AND YOU WILL COST £10.00 A MONTH TO USE. SEND
THIS TO
EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST. NOW YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO. PLEASE DO NOT
FORWARD THIS or REPLAY. COPY THE WHOLE EMAIL. GO BACK TO YOUR INBOX AND
CLICK ON NEW. AND PASTE THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION hey everyone, i
dont
normally send this sort of stuff out but had a look on the internet and
its
actually

It's not only Fake, it may also contain a worm, attached to it, to obtain email and personal data, this Con is used to extract financial information, personal information, and to possibly cause pc damage to the harddrive, Delete It, and do not forward for any reason... MSN is a part of Microsoft Network, they will not run out of names or send emails in this fashion, some nut with a brain fart thought of this one.. Avoid these kind of emails, Bad News... Good Luck

It's complete rubbish and totally untrue. MSN would NEVER ask you to pass along messages like this to anyone else. They'd do it themselves if they needed to. It's poorly written crap. Delete the email.

"AND YOU WILL COST £10.00"
It's a definite fake. A franchise as big as MSN wouldn't send incoherent emails.

Your obviously new to E-Mail, but trust me, the more friends you have and the more people have your E-Mail address, the more of these youll get.
If your on Myspace, you get about 20 of these a day.

It is fake. It is a well known SPAM.
MSN/Live.com, Yahoo, AOL and Google are all going to advert supported models now, and are moving away from paid for services.
Delete it.

Have you ever heard of a coorporation requiring people to announce something that stupendous?
Of course it is a hoax and a chain letter (aka, superstitious garbage).

Not only is it fake, but many of these have a virus attached to them. Be careful!

Do you believe everything you get in your e mail? Who would care if it were true in the first place? msm and its messenger suck to begin with!

Too long to bother to read.
Thanks for the two points.
Later.
