Like that car insurance commercial with the girl and the french model (ugly dude): "If it's on the Internet it must be true."

I learned very fast to ignore all these things I get in my email. I used to check them all out on the usual websites, but they were about 95% bogus, always.

MaryS? How much of the information on the internet is FALSE?
My guess would be 50%. Maybe more.

These alarming warning emails are at least 90% false.

There is good information, but you really have to check it out.

Another interesting thing...infomercials.......we all see these:
"but wait, call and order in next 20 minuets and you'll receive 2 miracle widgets"

These are nearly 100% bogus and if the product is even half good, the company rips you off with "shipping and handling charges"

This is big business for SCAMMERS....stay away from them all!

If something is any good, it will be for sale in a reputable store or a trusted website such as Amazon.
