Youtube question?

[Heartboy]

Is it true your page will be deleted if you don't forward a message from the people that run it? I guess it's about all these 'fake' profiles. They're doing a house cleaning I guess but that's nuts. People's profiles shouldn't be deleted.

I hope this is an April Fools thing...

I've never seen a message like that, but I strongly suspect this is a prank. Who did they want you to forward it to?

This was on a number of people's bulletins or they posted it on their profiles. Looks fake to me!

Dear Youtube users,
This is a real letter from our Youtube Service Team, Robert and Angela. We are putting this because there is too much fake accounts, and robots in our Youtube community. In order to get rid of them, we are going to delete every account that did not repost this bulliten. You can either send it to all of your friends in a bulliten, or send this to all of your friends in a message.
BE WELL AWARE, that if you do not send this or repost it, your account will be deleted permanately. Sorry for the inconvience!

the same stuff has been circulating hotmail and similar web-mails for years, and they had their run on Myspace.
