22 Christians Martyred in Afghanistan SMS Hoax

If you get this SMS – it is a hoax. You can see the next thread for the discussion.

It would be interesting to study just how this particular message was, evidently, spread so quickly across the internet. I got it personally, and I know many others who did as well.

If anybody has any information on the source, I would love to hear about it.

    I just received the same SMS in Hong Kong. I found this link that indicates a hoax. My SMS referred to a Suzette Redondo at the Haggai Institute. I’ve also contacted the institue for clarification.

    I would hate to miss this if it is genuine. But we need to know if it is a hoax and get the word out.

    I recall that the top google site for a searh on “22 missionary families executed” that day was attacking computers with thier fake virus warnings and prompting a download from thier site. I would think that is the place to look for the source.
