Postal Inspectors . . . 3
. . . rock.
This week, I have received two chain letters.
Letters.
Not emails. Real physical letters with, like, stamps and postmarks and return addresses and stuff.
They are going here:
CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS SERVICE CENTER
ATTN: MAIL FRAUD
222 S. RIVERSIDE PLAZA STE 1250
CHICAGO IL 60606-6100
Someone is going to be very surprised . . . .
and it ain’t a-gonna be me.
(Public service announcement: You can forward the electronic kind to uce@ftc.gov. Don’t expect a reply, but they all go in the hopper.)

I have not received a chain letter in decades, and I’m not exaggerating – I mean decades. I didn’t know anyone wasted their time with them anymore.

Every now & again I get the emails from overseas, that promise the moon if I will let them deposit money into my bank account. Those go directly to the FBI email address. I figure they can have them, because I don’t want them. I haven’t seen the paper kind since I was a kid in school, & we won’t mention that it’s been more decades than I want to think about!

Sheesh. The last time I got an actual chain ‘letter’ I must’ve been a child.
All I seem to get these days are emails about multi-millionaire oil widows looking to share their money with a ‘trusted’ friend since their government with otherwise take it all.
That and ads for making my penis like 9 feet long and the usual assortment of unlimited music and porn cd/dvd downloads.
