Gasoline Price Gouging

Anthrax opportunists

For example, this email:

 As we all know, our world has now changed since the September 11 attacks on 
 the Pentagon and the World Trade Center. We have enemies that are willing to 
 go to any length to destroy our country.  We do not know what they may try 
 next, but Attorney General John Ashcroft says there is 100% chance they will 
 try something in the future, the question is, what will they do, and where 
 will they do it?

 There is a threat that these terrorists may try to attack next with CHEMICAL 
 or BIOLOGICAL weapons. That is why we at MultiRX?, have recently added to our
 line of products items that you can use to protect yourself and your family.

 We now offer Gas Masks that are 100% Certified by the Israeli Army.  We also 
 offer Cipro, the only medication approved by the FDA to treat ANTHRAX.  We 
 know, that as of October 10, at least 3 people in Florida have contracted
 Anthrax, and one of those people has died.  As of October 12, another case 
 of Anthrax occured in NYC at the NBC studios. The person who acquired it was
 anchorman Tom Brokaw's personal secretary. As of Saturday, October 13, 
 Anthrax was confirmed to have comtaminated a Microsoft office in Reno Nevada.
 All employees who worked on the same floor as this person is being treated
 with Cipro.  The initial symptoms for Anthrax are cold and flu.  In order
 for Anthrax to be treated, ANTIBIOTICS MUST BE ADMINISTERED BEFORE ANY MORE
 SERIOUS SYMPTOMS OCCUR, OTHERWISE, DEATH IS ALMOST EMINENT.

 It is quite certain, with the cold and flu season almost upon us, that 
 people will be flocking to their doctor when they get any sign of a cold of 
 flu, to be tested, for ANTHRAX. IMAGINE, THAT YOU ACTUALLY HAD THE FLU, AND 
 IT WAS ANTHRAX, AND YOU DIDN'T KNOW IT, AND YOU COULD NOT GET INTO YOUR DOCTOR 
 FOR SEVERAL DAYS BECAUSE HE IS TOTALLY BOOKED UP BECAUSE OF PANIC.  If you
 already are administering Cipro, it could make the difference between life 
 and death.  ARE YOU READY TO TAKE THIS CHANCE??

 If not, please visit our website.  You only need to fill out a simple 
 form, and on approval from our doctors, you will have your Cipro, Gas Mask, 
 or any of our other life changing products delivered to your door by 
 FedEx? in 2 days.  Please, think about the safety of yourself and your 
 family. Is it worth the risk not to?
