Dear customer,
Our main competitor, Nokia, is giving free mobile phones away on the internet. Here at Ericsson we want to counter their offer. So we are giving our newest WAP-phoness away as well. They are specially developed for internet happy customers who value cutting edge technology. By giving free phones away, we get valuable customer feedback and a great Word-of-Mouth effect. All you have to do, is to forward this message to 8 friends.After two weeks delivery time, you will receive a Ericsson T18. If you forward it to 20 freinds, you will receive the brand new Ericsson R320 WAP- phone. Just remember to send a copy to <email address removed>. That is the only way we can see, that you forwarded the message.

Best of luck
