I recently had an interesting conversation with an AIM user. Apparently someone started sending messages around that AOL was going to cancel inactive accounts unless they send a specific message to ten of their friends. With all the email scams going on, you'd think in such a large mass of people, at least one might have asked "Why?," but apparently everybody swallowed it whole without thinking. It's sad that this is our future, but at least now when I'm short on cash, I'll just reword the same message to specify the need to send credit card numbers and expiration dates as well.
