Real email stories from Hoaxbusters
http://hoaxbusters.ciac.org/HBRea...from Rich, bored at work, Tue 17th Sep, 11:15am
I got an email this morning, which I thought was probably a hoax, so I went to the Hoaxbusters website to check it out. It was indeed a hoax, but more interesting were the other hoaxes, some of which were quite amusingly silly. Best of all, however, was this page of emails that looked like hoaxes but weren't. The two at the bottom are simply fantastic (do go to the links after reading the report), although with the depth of knowledge and the competitiveness in the club, I'm sure we can beat three seconds...

For more hoaxes and associated debunkings (not necessarily internet-based ones), check out the very entertaining (although rather ugly) Snopes website
