I just got the following text message:

'I'm passing on an SMS that Harav Hamekubal Nissim Shalom dreamt of his grandfather and was told that Moshiach is near, and says that whoever hurries and publicises this will be saved from the birthpangs of Moshiach, and whoever doesn't may be subject to great financial loss. Pass on to at least 12 people quickly, this is a sh'at ratzon.'

Anyone know the source or authenticity of this message?

I just got it too. I really resent death and doom stuff like this. Especially when we are facing a real hurricane.

I don't ever, ever, ever respond to messages that tell me to pass something along to at least X people or to everyone I know. Nor do I pass along predictions of Biat haMashiach. When mashiach finally comes, I feel confident he will find his own way of spreading the news and won't need us to spread the word.

Messages we wouldn't like to see:

Flu season is coming. Pass it along to everyone you know.

I also got this text.

If it would've just said to pass it along maybe I would've believed it. But that "if you dont pass it on then get punishment?!?!?"

classic chain'letter scam format. Order people to contiinue chain, threaten dire consequences if they don't comply. at least they didn't ask for money...
