This is an alert about a virus in the original sense of the word...one that affects your body, not your hard drive. There have been 23 confirmed cases of people attacked by the Klingerman Virus, a virus that arrives in your real mailbox, not your e-mail in box. Someone has been mailing large blue envelopes, seemingly at random, to people inside the US. On the front of the envelope in bold black letters is printed, "A gift for you from the Klingerman Foundation." When the envelopes are opened, there is a small sponge sealed in plastic. This sponge carries what has come to be known as the Klingerman Virus, as public health officials state this is a strain of virus they have not previously encountered. When asked for comment, Florida police Sergeant Stetson said, "We are working with the CDC and the USPS, but have so far been unable to track down the origins of these letters. The return addresses have all been different, and we are certain a remailing service is being used, making our jobs that much more difficult." Those who have come in contact with the Klingerman Virus have been hospitalized with severe dysentery. So far seven of the twenty-three victims have died. There is no ligitimate Klingerman Foundation mailing unsolicited gifts. IF you receive an oversized BLUE envelope in the mail marked "A gift from the Klingerman Foundation." DO NOT open it. Place it in a strong plastic bag or container and call the police immediately. The "Gift" is one you definitely do not want to open. This is some scarey shit here. Not sure if this is really happening or not but in the light of all the things that have happened in our nation over the last couple weeks i'd have to say that it's possible.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2001 Report Share Posted October 4, 2001 This is a bonafide hoax. I have gotten several versions of it. It did not generate from Swab. Open any blue envelopes to your heart's content. B. Dommer Littleton, CO Look to God and Live Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 4, 2001 Report Share Posted October 4, 2001 For the one millionth time, this is an urban legend, it is not true and it should not be passed along. I'm sorry if I sound angry but spreading stupid rumors of this sort just spreads needless panic among people and this, of all times, is not the time to be doing that. If you get a warning that sounds dubious (and, believe me, most of " urgent " warnings are more than dubious) you can check them out first at the following site: http://www.urbanlegends.com Phony computer virus warnings can be checked out here: http://www.urbanlegends.com Before passing along any kind of warning, you should always check these sites first to verify whether they are legit or fake. So, bookmark the two sites and please made use of them. Hugs a Bkind2urPets@... wrote: > > > > > Warning - Do Not Open Blue Envelopes in your U.S. Mail.
