Kijk Uit! Virus 2

Van Daan:

Hoaxes and Urban Legends: "Osama captured" / "Osama hanged" virus hoax

Whenever you receive an email that urges you to immediately forward that mail to everyone you know, there is a very good chance the email is a hoax. Please take the time to verify the message by doing a Google search before you send it on to anyone else. In most cases when you take an arbitrary sentence from the message and google for it you'll end up with many hoax warning pages as the result.
The following email is one such hoax. Though there really was a virus that used a message about Osama bin Laden captured or hanged to entrap people to open a virus-attachment, that was several years ago. Current virus scanners would catch this virus if it still circulated. Also, the Olympic torch / Invitation virus mentioned in this chain letter is a known hoax. Therefore do not forward that hoax email to others.
