The sick boy picture with following message:
If this little boy gets a 100 shares then he can get his heart transplant for free
Do you really believe "100 share will get free heart transplant ". This is little trick of spammers.
Another version of the hoax reads as follows:
I NEED AT LEAST 10000 SHARES.
Plz share..... Heart surgery free of cost for children (0-10 Yrs) Ph : 080-28411500 It might save some1's life...! Sharing takes a second... in bangalore INDIA
More than likes, sharing can help !
"The telephone number is authentic and belongs to the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Medical Sciences, Whitefield in Bangalore, India, where all medical services are indeed offered free of charge. Said medical services are not contingent on Facebook shares, however.
Nor is the child depicted in the photo an actual patient at the Institute. As noted on Hoax-Slayer.com, the image is dated September 2008 and was lifted from the Chernobyl Children's Project International website" According to the Urban Legends blog on About.com.
I have seen some more spam message ,"Share this and get Money". Peoples always fall of these type of spam message. Sharing the message or forwarding mails never bring any money for you. It is trick used by spammers.
