So I just got like three messages through psn saying if you send a forward to 35 people explaining we don't have to pay for psn thenyou'll get $37 dollars on your account. Obviously this sounds like total crap that kids would fall for. But...I was just wondering if there was any validity to the message?

Why would Kevin Butler ( not his real name BTW ) take the time to do it? It is fake. Thats why. Enough said?

I get these stupid-ass chain mails all the time. Too bad I can't block the senders because they're my gullible cousins who keep forwarding them to me.
They're so stupid. The bottom of the last one said:

I mean omg, I think my cousins are mental defectives.

Well I don't know about deleting them altogether...Maybe our friends are poor innocent saps that don't know any better. Now if someone tries to sell me sneakers or some crap they're gone!

Wow I can't believe anyone actually believes this crap. Here's a tip, if it says "this message is tracked by PS3 moderators" than its a fake and just ignore it

When spam messages started I figured they would end very soon since I didn't think any normal minded person would actually believe them. Oh how I was wrong..

Obvious fake is obvious.

Firstly, it's typed in broken grammar and it says Sony Entertainment Company, it's Sony computer Entertainment. An official message from Sony would be typed with proper grammar and would not say "Sony Entertainment Company." Secondly, Kevin Butler has no authority to access your account and add funds. Thirdly, (to my knowledge) there is no group of Sony moderators that moderate when you send this message. Finally, it's a waste of time and money to actually do this, there's no point to it.

I just got spammed by someone most likely for posting in this thread and they thought they were being cute to send it to me. It's amazing how people thrive on being annoying

A few of my PSN friends sent me this annoying message. I then went on to delete and block them. I'm sick of getting chain mail.

No message is ever tracked on PSN. Ever. You will never receive any money from passing a message on. Ever. The copy and paste function was the worst thing to ever happen to the PS3...

I've never gotten one of those...So far...Yet it's probably cause my friends list is small and only has smart friends of mine that I know very well.

some people can't get ps3 money so they're desperate, they may be gullible but when they see a message like that they see a ray of light, i recieved it from 3 random people and 5 friends, just ignore it.
