Oh no! How many times have I seen some well-intentioned idiocy start with
those words. I have a mailbox full of "please forward this" scam warnings,
generous offers from Bill gates, and requests for business cards for
little boys dying of cancer.
  If you are going to forward a chain-letter, please research it a little.
And then still don't send it to plug.
This one is well on the way to urban-legend status. It seems to be
confusing a couple of actual scams.
