Believe It Or Not, Please DON'T Believe It.

A colleague at work who was trying to be nice innocently sent an email to us that, unknown to him, has been and is still being spread on the internet like wildfire. The message looked really believable and meant no harm other than "polluting" the internet environment, I think.

It's quite a lengthy email explaining each of the following five cell phone "tips" which I will just summarize here:

- The Emergency Number for Cell Phones Worldwide is 112
- You Can Unlock Your Car Remotely Through a Cell Phone
- There May be Hidden Battery Power in Your Cell Phone
- Dial *#06# on Your Cell Phone to Get a Code That Will Disable Your Phone
and,
* Use Left Ear For Mobile Phone (an advisory coming from "apollo medical team",
a team that when I checked existed only on the MOON as part of NASA's moon
exploratory and landing team).

I googled "hidden battery power" and "apollo medical team" and ... yes sireeeee... you guessed it right! Except for the *#06# item, everything is a HOAX, information that hardly anyone pays attention to.... let alone use.


Nagmamagandang loob si Joe, isang kaopisina ko, ng pinadalhan nya ako at mga kasama kong pinoy sa work ng email na mayroong 5 cell phone "tips." Pero lingid sa kanyang kaalaman ay mga 5 years na itong kumakalat sa internet at walang magandang silbi kundi pabagalin ang internet traffic dahil sa volume ng mga tulad ng ganitong email kasi yung mahihilig na mag-forward ng email, syempre i-forward naman nila sa kanilang mga kakilala hanggang sa ........ BOOOM!!

Yung limang "tips" e hindi ko na lang isatagalog, nabasa nyo na sa taas ng post na ito -- natatakot kasi ako na baka pag tinransleyt ko sa tagalog e biglang magkatotoo ... hehehehe

Long en syort ng istorya e, isa lang talaga ang totoo. Pero totoo man ito, e para sa akin walang silbi .... hehehehe.... meron akong kopya ng invoice nung binili ko ang cell phone ko at nandoon ang serial number ng cell phone ko.

Bale patunay, mag-google kayo ng: "hidden batter power" at "apollo medical team". Itong team na ito ng inimbistegahan ko ay hindi naman mga hockey players o basketbolista o football players ---- pero parang isang crack team na nagpunta sa BUWAN at crew ng Apollo exploratory and landing team noong panahon ni President John Kennedy (circa 1960's) na nagdesisyong mag-migrate sa buwan at hindi na bumalik sa earth.

Morale ng istori? Mag-ingat sa mga pasaway!
