The emails mostly say the sender's child needs urgent operation or something like that and he/she doesn't have money. So and so company would pay him a fixed sum each time the email is forwarded. May be it's an advertisement of the company, or may be it's true. I don't want to forward them if they are false. Please let me know.

Ha, you must be new to the world of internet and e-mails...welcome. To answer your question, its a big NO like our friends have already told you. This is one of those spam e-mails that would have reached almost every inbox on earth. That sick child in the mail will be forever sick...don't even bother about that. If you are really kind-hearted, there are better ways to do charity than forwarding stupid mails. There are many such spams - another very common one is 'Nokia is giving off mobile phones for free' or 'Dell is offerring you laptops for free' if you forward some ridiculous mail to some n number of people. Another crap mail is from a multi-millionaire who'd want to share his new-found fortune with you and all you have to do is forward mails. Dear buddy...the world would be a much happier (and richer) place if all these were true.

I used to artwork doing market study over the phone, on a short survey i ought to interview 50-60 human beings in an 8 hour shift. those jobs pay minimum salary so i truly doubt filling in 5 surveys can earn $500 that is unquestionably a scam. there are a kind of survey and opinion web pages on-line that are ligit. you could earn factors and issues, yet you want lots to get rewards. yet that suggested in case you want filling out surveys or doing polls and issues, then its some thing you want doing with a small bonus.

No, it is not true. It is a way for spammers to get even more email addresses.
