Who would believe something like this:
***Amish Virus Alert***
You have just received the Amish virus.Since we have no electricity or computers, you are on the honor system. Please delete all of your files on your hard drive, then forward this message to everyone in your address book.
Thank thee.
Sophos has the actual hoax information on their security page.

HOW AWESOME IS THAT! A virus that works on Mac OS X… :)
Oh my god, I can’t stop laughing, great one!!
i read that before, i actually foward the email and then delete all my files, it was a long process…
Good god! That one is soo old my IBM XT started deleting it’s files for the 18th time!
Hell, the perfect virus!
Must have been the easiest virus to write.
A buddy of mine raise a good point… how can someone forward to everyone in their address book if all the files are deleted? It does say “… THEN forward this…”!! lol
That is freakin’ hilarious!
