WARNING! PLEASE READ IMMEDIATELY! THIS IS SERIOUS! If you get postal mail from an organization called the "Internal Revenue Service," DO NOT OPEN IT! Opening it will DELETE EVERYTHING ON YOUR HARD DRIVE by activating a mutant form of the AIDS virus known as the Ada virus. By means of a recently-invented technology called "Tasking," the Ada virus will attach itself to all your other postal mail, so that several copies of the virus can run in PARALLEL!!! Furthermore, in 1995 a stronger version of the Ada virus was released, which makes the deadly "Tasking" even more powerful! To make matters worse, the "Internal Revenue Service" operates a scam around this time every year. Their mail claims that you owe them money, which they will take and use to pay for the operation of essential functions of the United States government. This is untrue! The money the IRS collects is used to fund various inefficient and pointless social engineering projects. This organization has ties to a dangerous PYRAMID SCHEME run by the so-called "Social Security Administration." They claim to take money from your regular paychecks and save it for your retirement. In truth, the SSA uses the money to pay for the same misguided make-work projects the IRS helps mastermind. These scam artists have bilked honest, hard working Americans out of billions of dollars. Don't be among them! ALERT! FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!
