Thanks for the comments all!
Vivek, nice to hear that.
Manuj, I’m sure there must be many sites like that, perhaps we should make a list of them.
Anuradha, bang on! People do think money floats about in billions in cyberspace and even I prefer friends emailing letters irregualrly rather than sending forwards regularly!

Hey Sunil! Good list! Have had the same feeling about these forwards. Some of my fiends feel offended that I don’t check the forwards.
You missed one important type – the one that says that Google, MSN, Bill Gates and the like will add a paisa, a dollar, or any such monetary unit to some fictitious account in order to save some ‘poor soul’ somewhere every time this e-mail is forwarded!
Oh yes, there is also the mushy forward that says ‘I keep forwarding because I remember you!’ Sending a one-line proper e-mail once a month may be a better idea.

I check the facts on hoax-slayer website. If there are others we should share.
