Internet scams, hoaxes and urban legends take many forms so it's good to have a few places you can go to see if something is true or not.

• snopes.com: Urban Legends Reference Pages
• TruthOrFiction.com About.com: Current Internet Hoaxes, Email Rumors & Urban Legends
• "Scambusters.org - Internet Scams, Identity Theft, and Urban Legends: Are You at Risk?"

The next time someone sends you email exclaiming "send this to everyone you know!" you know where to check it out. I constantly receive stories that are half true of completely false.
