Shocking or what ? !..
Much as I know that some of you guys would like to believe it,that is just another 'spoof' e-mail that has been doing the E-mail rounds for years- -in U.S.,Canada,Oz ,India ,etc.
I always recommend everyone to check out HOAX-SLAYER site when you read something like that-it saves reaching for those B.P. tablets !
