A friend from Florida sent this to me, not sure wether its a joke or what but in case

QuotePLEASE READ THIS: State Police Warning for Online

WARNING FROM THE STATE POLICE . . . USA (Not a joke.)



State police warning for online: Please read this "very carefully"...then send it out to all the people online that you know.

Something like this is nothing to be taken casually; this is something you DO want to pay attention to. Think of it as a bit of advice too.


If a person with the screen-name of Monkeyman935 contacts you, do not reply.
DO not talk to this person; do not answer any of his/her instant Messages or e-mail.
Whoever this person may be, he/she is a suspect for murder in the death of 56 women (so far) contacted through the Internet.

Please send this to all the women on your buddy list and ask them to pass this on, as well. This screen-name was seen on Yahoo, AOL, AIM, and Excite so far.

This is not a joke! Please send this to men too...just in case! Send to everyone you know! Ladies, this is serious.

99.% hoax.  What law enforcement agency contacts people like this?

Let me explain to you why this can not be real, and the next time you see something like this you too can identify why it's not real!

Authoritive figures (major companies, government, police) will never ask you to forward something yourself, they will contact you directly and anyone else that may be affected.

It's not professional. State police would not address a letter/memo using "WARNING FROM THE STATE POLICE . . . USA (Not a joke.)", they would put which state and would leave out the "(Not a joke.)". They also don't tell you "it's a bit of advice too" and to "forward it to men too just in case".

There is a 1 in a billion chance that police would have someone's screenname and not their real name or address, or atleast something more.

Such things are chain letters and should be ignored at first glance, people forwarding chain letters should be shot on site.

Also, they say the "State police" but do not specify which state.

Seems like somebody doesn't like Monkeyman935.  Maybe by sending this out, people will contact them and annoy them about things?

If he really did kill 56 women, wouldn't this make the news?

Also, even supposing that it was real, wouldn't it make sense that by propagating this letter in this way, Monkeyman935 will receive word of it and change his screenname, thereby rendering the entire letter pointless anyway?

What kind of idiot would use the same screen name on subsequent murders?

One who is very attached to his screen name's reputation and doesn't believe the murder has been connected to the name yet, of course.
