My sister used to forward me every chain hoax email. I would respond with the Snopes article that debunked it. Eventually, she took me off her email chain.
The whole Internet should work like that.
Re: snopes-ing hoax emails
I did the same thing, only I went one better and sent the debunking to every single person on their distribution list.
They changed the recipient to “bcc “ and later stopped sending me the “glurge “
:D
