I'm always surprised at how many of these types of emails I get from people, or see posted to message boards, by people thinking they're real.

Go figure, huh?  I mean, it seems like a perfectly legitimate marketing too for them to do that....

I recently had a girl at work warn me not to let my grandaughter play in the ball play area at a local fast food restaurant because she had gotten an urgent warning email about a kid dying from a needle found in one, and another email about drugs in another. I told her that I was sure it was a Hoax, and she was skeptical until I snoped it for her,  they had both emails word for word listed.
