NAME:Ericsson WAP Give-Away hoax

The message below is a variant of "Nokia" chain letter:

 Dear customer

 Our main competitor, Nokia, is giving free mobile phones away on
 the Internet. Here at Ericsson we want to counter their offer.

 So we are giving our newest WAP-phones away as well. They are
 specially developed for Internet happy customers who value
 cutting edge technology. By giving free phones away, we get
 valuable customer feedback and a great Word-of-Mouth effect.

 All you have to do, is to forward this message to 8 friends.
 After two weeks delivery time, you will receive a Ericsson T18.
 If you forward it to 20 friends, you will receive the brand new
 Ericsson R320 WAP-phone. Just remember to send a copy to
 Anna.*******@ericsson.com - that is the only way we can see,
 that you forwarded the message.

 Best of luck
 Anna *******
 Executive Promotion Manager for Ericsson Marketing
