Useful Information or Hoax (Forwarded messages)

Question:

Is the information in a message real or a hoax?

Useful(?) Information or Hoax - Forwarded messages:
Most message that get forwarded around the district (that were forwarded to the sender) are false. Many warnings of viruses or such or problems with the government or how to help someone out or even some of the poems about 9/11 have been fakes. Near the bottom of the staff web startup page is a section labeled Hoax Information that will let you search for information to see if the message is real. I’d say about 90% of the time something that’s "informative" that’s been forwarded several times is false. Every forwarded message that I have seen spread around this district has been in this database. When this information is incorrect it just results in several hundred district e-mail users spending time reading it and some of them forwarding it onto others... (and so on and so on)

Take a look at one of the hoax sites and send information it back to your friends instead of being the one sending it out to others.

Remember: Mail sent from a district e-mail account should comply with the SRSD Acceptable Use Policy for Information and Technology ( see http://southredford.net/tech/aup/ ) and any other relevant Board/District policies.
