I have heard about something awesome: Microsoft is offering money rewards to those willing to try their new e-mail services and it says also that all you have to do is forward the e-mail explaining all that. A friend of mine tells me that it is a hoax and I believe that is beta testing. What is your opinion about this issue?

Oh, please! How naïve anybody should be in order to believe in something like that? do you really think that it is possible for you to receive a couple hundred dollars for forwarding that message to a number of people? I think that all you can receive is being regarded as a spammer! So, be careful what you do and whom you believe. All those mails offering you easy money are actually a hoax. So, there is no beta testing or anything similar. It is just a way to pull your leg. I don’t know what those people who do that have from this but don’t let them make a fool out of you.
