Email Tracking Useful Information

1) Any time you see an E-Mail that says forward this on to '10' (or
however many) of your friends, sign this petition, or you'll get bad luck,
good luck, you'll see something funny on your screen after you send it,
or whatever, it almost always has an E-Mail tracker program attached
that tracks the cookies and E-Mails of those folks you forward to.

The host sender is getting a copy each time it gets forwarded and then
is able to get lists of 'active' E-Mail addresses to use in SPAM E-Mails, or
sell to other spammers. Even when you get emails that demand you
send the email on if you're not ashamed of God/Jesus .....that's E-mail
tracking and they're playing on our conscience. These people don't care
how they get your email addresses - just as long as they get them. Also,
emails that talk about a missing child or a child with an incurable
disease - "how would you feel if that was your child"....E- mail
Tracking!!!

Ignore them and don't participate!

2) Almost all E-Mails that ask you to add your name and forward on to
others are similar to that mass letter years ago that asked people to
send business cards to the little kid in Florida who wanted to break the
Guinness Book of Records for the most cards. All it was, and all any of
this type of E-Mail is, is a way to get names and 'cookie' tracking
information for telemarketers and spammers - - to validate active E-Mail
accounts for their own profitable purposes.

You can do your friends and family members a GREAT favor by sending
this information to them; you will be providing a service to your friends,
and will be rewarded by not getting thousands of spam E-Mails in the
future!

If you have been sending out (FORWARDING) the above kinds of E-Mail,
now you know why you get so much SPAM!

Do yourself a favor and STOP adding your name(s) to those types of
listings regardless how inviting they might sound!...or make you feel
guilty if you don't!...it' s all about getting email addresses - nothing more!

You may think you are supporting a GREAT cause, but you are NOT!
Instead, you will be getting tons of junk mail later and very possibly a
virus attached! Plus, you are helping the spammers get rich! Let's not
make it easy for them!

Also: E-Mail petitions are NOT acceptable to White House, Congress or
any other organization - I.e. Social security, etc. To be acceptable,
petitions must have a signed signature and full address of the person
signing the petition, so this is a waste of time and you're just helping the
Email trackers.
