CHAIN MAILS!!!

Every week, we get some sort of weird emails that  tell us about a freaky ghost(or in one an evil teddy bear) who will kill us if we don't send the mail. Along with this preposterous idea, we receive three(always three) accounts of people who didn't, half did, and did what they tell us to do. And in the end, we send it on for no reason.
I'm sorry to say, I must be dead around 7 times already and I should have bad luck for the rest of my life. Ah well. I don't really care. Sometimes, if we're lucky enough, we get horribly Photoshopped images that some people believe. And yet we send them on.
Two men in Africa wanted to check how gullible the general public was. So they sent an email about some ghost to everyone they knew, along with a phone number to contact at the bottom if there were any inquiries.
To their childish delight, they received over 200 calls in the next two days. And this email is still being sent today. Now, I haven't got this email, but I believe it demonstrates how gullible we are. Very often, I get two different emails  about two different ghosts(one about a teddy bear, one about some girl) who attacked the exact same people and gave them the same fate. and how is that possible? They die, and then they die again?
whats even worse is that I got an email called nonsense(I won't tell you who sent it, but he should know) that was so uninformative that they said the email had been circulating since 1864. In reply, I sent:
"To whomsoever wrote this email:
Seriously. I hope you realize that the sentence "this one has been going since 1864" doesn't make sense since the Email was invented in 1961....." Of course, I didn't forward this, so you won't be getting it unless someone else forwards it to you or you've already got it.
Wake up people. Just delete those messages. Don't send them. and for Facebook users: If you get an email saying that your account needs to be confirmed, delete it. Hackers have ingeniously redirected the link given below to a phishing site, that will destroy your account. Thank me later.
