Hi there, Has anyone heard of something called EggTegg? I got this offline message today and something tells me that I do NOT want to rez this thing. Spam? Or something more sinister? Message: "The object 'eggTegg : Sender ' has sent you a message from Second Life: Aloha Brann Georgia, you get this Message as you once had a Contact with the MoneyEgg, and as we totaly rebuilded our entire Infrastructure, we decided to Send the new MoneyEgg 3, to all once Customers. Be sure if you ignore this Message you wont get another one. Thank you. If you Like to use the new better MoneyEgg 3 just rezz it  and if you like more Informations first, visit the MoneyEgg Sim Egg Land" ??

There is a product known as the moneyegg, which is used for egg hunts. But if you didn't buy it - I wouldn't open that thing.

Find somewhere that does not allow scripts to run. If Build is allowed, rez it and check the contents. If no-build, then you could attach it and check the contents.

Did you ever camp at the money egg sim? Or join the associated group? I got one of those today when I logged in, just straight discarded it...
Thanks the only thing I can think of why you got one.

The Money Egg is a survey thing like the Hippie Pay -- it's a great spam generator for the folks who want an inbox full of penis enlargement ads along with some awesome stock tips.

It is interesting how many of those similar business are in SL some will pay you if you sign up give a whole lot of personal information so you can get on their list of callers, spammers, and what not but it's not spam because you sign up for the information in hopes of get few lindens for buying ring tones,etc.
