terrorist activity

PLEASE READ AND DON'T TAKE ANY CHANCES.

Seven women have died after inhaling a free perfume sample that was
mailed
to them. The product was poisonous. If you receive free samples in the
mail
such as lotions, perfumes, diapers etc. > throw them away. The
government is
afraid that this might be another terrorist act.
They will not announce it > on the news because they do not want to
create
panic or give the terrorists new ideas. Send this to all your friends
and
family members.

...hmmm new ideas???

What do you think guys? Shall we all stop checking our mail??

No, I think it's a hoax. It wouldn't "give new ideas" if it's already been done...and I don't really receive a whole lot of perfume in the mail anyway, hehe. Thanks for posting, though.

Wow, and I read a fiction book not to long ago (last couple of years) that was a lot like this. Some guy had gotten a hold of small pox and was putting it on perfume samples. Sounds like someone else read the book recently, and maybe didn't realize it was fiction.

I think you should call the Texas guy and ask him about it. When he denies knowledge, expalin to him that you are not a terroist looking for new ideas, you just wanted to get more information.

souleman is right--You should forward that to someone in the Harris County DA's Office to see what their take on it is.
