My name is Jeffrey xxxxxx.  I am a marketing analyst
        for M & Ms chocolate candies based in Hershey,
        Pennsylvania.  As the year 2000 approaches, we want
        to be the candy of the millenium.  As you may
        already know, the roman numeral for Y2K is MM.

        We are asking you to pass on this e-mail to 5
        friends.  Our tracking device is calculating how
        many e-mails you send out. Everytime it reaches 2000
        people,  you will receive a free case (100
        individual 55 gram packs) of delicious M & M
        candies.  That means the more people it reaches, the
        more candy you're going to get.

        Mmmmmm... yummy M & Ms for  the year 2000!!
 One quick indication that is a hoax is the fact that Mars not Hersey makes and sells M + M candies.
