Hey, I just wanted to let you guys know about this great new PC I just
got from IBM!
Hewlett-Packard and Gateway have just merged to form the biggest computer
supplier in the world! Bigger than Dell, bigger than IBM, bigger than them
all! In response to this amazing merger, IBM has set aside 250,000 free
computers to reward and keep it's most loyal and trusted customers! I've
already got mine, read on to see how you can get yours!!!
This email has a special encoding which will let IBM know every time you
send it to one of your friends or relatives. The first 250,000 people who
send this to at least 15 of their friends will receive a brand new IBM
computer! After you send this to your friends, and qualify, IBM will
contact you via email, and get your shipping address. Send them your
address, and in a couple of days, a brand new computer, complete with
printer, and 19" monitor is sitting on your doorstep! You must hurry,
because this offer ends July 31 of this year!
Here's the catch, though. Each of your friends must send this to at
least 5 people or you won't be eligible, so choose your friends wisely!
Remember, a true friend will send this along for you! That's all it
takes,no strings attached! No purchase necessary!!! You don't even have
to have previously purchased a computer from IBM! They want to earn or
keep your future business, and they're willing to pay for it!!!
