I received this mail... Is it true???

hi guys Sorry to break the news, but looks like all of those warnings were

real! The use of msn and mail will cost money from summer 2007. If you send

this message to 18 different people from your list your little msn icon will

become blue and that will make it free for you. If you dont believe me go on

(www.msn.com) and see it yourself. Dont foward this message, copy paste it

so people will actually read it.> Hey it is Andy and john the directors of

MSN, sorry for the interruption but msn is closing down. this is because too

many inconsiderate people are taking up all the name (eg making up lots of

different accounts for just one person), we only have 578 names left. If you

would like to close your account, DO NOT SEND THIS MESSAGE ON. If you would

like to keep your account, then SEND THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE ON YOUR

CONTACT LIST. This is no joke,

we will be shutting down the servers. Send it on, thanks. WHO EVER DOES NOT

SEND THIS MESSEAGE, YOUR ACCOUNT WILL BE CLOSED AND YOU WILL COST £10.00 A

MONTH TO USE. SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST. NOW YOU KNOW WHAT

TO DO. PLEASE DO NOT FORWARD THIS or REPLAY. COPY THE WHOLE EMAIL. GO BACK

TO YOUR INBOX AND CLICK ON NEW. AND PASTE THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION hey

everyone, i dont normally send this sort of stuff out but had a look on the

internet and its actually true . On the 30th of november , we will have to

pay for the use of our MSN and email accounts unless we send this message to

at least 18 contacts on your contact list. It's no joke if you don't believe

me then go to the site (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/1189119.stm) and

see for yourself. Anyways once you've sent this message to at least 18

contacts, your msn dude will become blue. please copy and paste don't

forward cos people won't take notice of it

    It is total BS. Anytime you are asked to forward a message along for something in return, rule of thumb is its a scam. Dont worry about it.

    I don't think so because I have an MSN account and I haven't recieved the e-mail.

    Considering that link doesn't go anyway i think that you are lying and if i sent that email to 10 mates then i would probably lose some mates cos they get p1ssed of when i send things like that so.................. NO
