…do us all a favour. If you think that there is ANY chance that this mail is a hoax, copy and paste some of the content into Google and see what comes in.Normally, the kind of thing I’m talking about is mails claiming to be from Barclays or Ebay, or ones about alleged viruses plaguing the internet, but most interesting email arrived into my inbox last week, with a prophetic message from Karl Marx about our currrent economic strife.

It read:

“Owners of capital will stimulate the working class to buy more and more of expensive goods, houses and technology, pushing them to take more and more expensive credits, until their debt becomes unbearable.

The unpaid debt will lead to bankruptcy of banks, which will have to be nationalised, and the State will have to take the road, which will eventually lead to communism.”.

Intriguing, yes? So I grabbed a little text and typed it into Google. Oh yeah, with the word “Fake” in front. Here is the resulting list from Google.

The internet is great, but it’s full of lies too. Thing is, the lies sometimes get a lot further than the truth.
