I have received in less than 48 hours more than 20 messages coming form my contacts announcing a firmware update, and if I didn’t send the messages to my contacts I would not receive my update. It’s a leap back to the spamming culture we suffer during the first years of email. The question is: who started this dirty activity against RIM? I guess many people just want to have RIM network down and get some more market share, or just simply pranksters? The truth is that many people nowadays still believe in this spam messages, we call it in Spanish (Cadenas) or “Chains” , they usually are really innocent in the surface but if you realize they can easily overflow the network if all users believe in it and start forwarding them.
I think we, as users, must filter what we forward in our messages, sometimes we don;t even think in what we are doing, please stop the spamming….
