Urban Legend emails
I used to get these all the time in my life as a system administrator. People forwarding me emails because they thought they had a virus, or people emailing me (and everyone in there address book) to watch out about some guy selling perfume in a parking lot.
In addition to typing snopes in google You can also type hoax and then the email subject, BEFORE emailing everyone in your address book.
Sometimes it gets even worse, when two or more people start arguing about whether the content of the email is real or not, and they keep replying to all each time.. Big waste of resources, and clutters my inbox.
That being said, some of them can be kinda funny ;-)
