I get ****e Facebook messages sometimes which are similar to the chain letters of yore.

Superstitious people pass them on via messenger to avoid tinkers curses/the plague/financial hardship blah-di-blah.

They're sent by the same people who post the "Share this picture of money and money will come your way".

A guy who was in a position of supervision (okay, minor) in a job I once worked in asked my opinion about putting some of his money into a Pyramid scheme.

I told him to bring it in to work and I would burn it for him.

Still its hard to know how gullible some people are !

Facebook has this sort of ****. "Put this as your status for 10 mins to show you support cancer survivors. I know most of my friends won't" or "like if you love disabled children, scroll if you with they would die"

Or 'share this with 15 people in the next 30 seconds and something cool will happen'. Something cool won't happen, unless you count 15 people unfriending you as cool.

I prefer the more direct approach:

"Pass this love poem to 10 of your dearest and most precious friends or else I'll come to your house and slice your fúckin' throat from ear to ear!"
