“Send this Email to 8 people”

How many of us have received such emails? I have seen a plenty of them. The one that urges u to ‘forward’ is the “Forward this to 20 people” and receive a ‘free laptop’ from a branded company, or ‘See a miracle’ in 10 days, Or ‘Receive good news’ in 5 hours, Or even the worse ones like ‘Forward this to 20 people or ur mother dies in 20 hours’.  Who has not seen a message about the mobile company offering free talk time for forwarding the message to at least 10 people. People somehow for the love and care of the family or for the free gift promised are becoming a part of many such online scams.
