I would send it to Pogo admin, see what they do.


The reminds me of a small mail worm that happened years ago, but it was though email.  That's how spammers got email address.

When you would send it to your address book list it would also send a copy back to the spammer with all your buddies email address, and you and your buddies would got 10000000000's of emails

Kind of reminds me of the old Microsoft hoax about Bill gates giving you $10 for every person you forward a specific email to. ;)
