Agree with others, not sending them on and if I had someone constantly sending them to me I would ask politely that they discontinue, if they continued I would give them one more chance telling them I would hate to do it but I will have to unfriend them if they continue.  If it's a good friend/family member I would hope they would respect my wishes enough, if not, bye bye.

I haven't received any in a long time.  I hate those things and have never forwarded any.

    As I said before: They are trying to sell you something you do not want or need!
Delete the e-nail or return to sender via USA mail. It is the only way to deal with them!

I also get chain letters but I never pass them on. There are too many weak links in each chain letter to have them be reliable.

I might return it to the person who sent it to me but I refuse to allow someone to manipulate me into sending something to all my friends.  When it comes to Social Media....

Sometimes less is more.

Have a great day!

There are people who just love sending chain letters. I am not one of them.

Haven't heard of anyone getting a chain letter since the 80's. When I was a kid I thought a chain letter was one with chains drawn down the sides so I did that and sent it to my Mom. She thought it was adorable.
