How to Recognize a Hoax I read that recognizing a hoax is not near as complex as eveyone thinks it is. You can generally figure out a hoax by reading the first few lines, if it says 'send this to everyone you know' or if it is using technical soundinglanguage or credibility by association. A hoax can come in various kinds of emails such as a chain letter or a virus. You can visit the following web site for additional information on a hoax http://hoaxbusters.ciac.org/HBHoaxInfo.html#identify[1] or http://hoaxbusters.ciac.org/HBOtherHoaxPages.html[2] Joaquina Delgado ms_delgado@xxxxxxxxxxx "You measure the size of the accomplishment by the obstacles you had to overcome to reach your goals."
