How many have gotten the email about Microsoft "beta-testing" emails?

And promises of 10s of thousands of dollars rolling in in a matter of weeks? I got 2 separate emails, and both were from coin related correspondences - either an eBay seller (I assume) or a person I had done a deal with outside of eBay. I haven't deleted them yet, but my finger is twitchin' on the trigger......

Don't you know that it's worth
every treasure on Earth
to be young at heart?
And as rich as you are,
it's much better by far,
to be young at heart!

    Not happening. But they offer Beta opportunities to key computer scientist for non-compensation. I have been in two in 15 years.

    Bill Gates still owes me 10 cents for every person I forwarded his email to.

    First time I got the microsoft urban rumor email was at least 10 years ago. Havent seen one for years.
    Now mostly really lame political/patriotic crap emails get forwarded around/useful for those who feel critical thought is too tiresome. LOL
    cant wait til people get tired of throwing those around
    how many have friends/relatives that apparently cant type? I never get anything from them they personally write themselves.
    their idea of using email is to forward dumb emails they got from other non typists (8-0)
    I am serious! and don't call me Shirley
