I really don't know. All I know is that my cousin sent it to me & I figured I'd let everyone know

The first thing you do when snopes is mentioned, is go there and check. 2007 this stuff started. Many variations now. We all need to remember to not click on anything we don't trust.

Yeah, these things pop up every now and then, if it says it was checked on snopes.com, go there yourself, they are usually hoaxes that have been around for years. Always better to be safe than sorry though! I always delete anything that wants me to click on a link.
