" Dear Youtube users,

In order to get rid of them, we are going to delete every account that did not repost this bulletin.
You can either send this to all of your friends in a bulletin or send this to all of your friends in a message.
BE WELL AWARE, that if you do not send this or repost it, your account will be deleted permanently!
Sorry for the inconvenience!
By the way, we added some new features on YouTube, if you reposted, and is gratified by us, we will let you use them!
Do not change the content inside, or else you will also get deleted more

Looks like it's totally fake. There are errors in the paragraph (is instead of are) and how can a deleted account be deleted "more"?

What do you think?

Fake. Not even the slightest chance of being real.

I also got that from 2 people today for no apparent reason. It's the best Chain letter i've seen, but not good enough to fool me :)

Obviously fake.

That's totally real! My cousin's friend's speech therapist knew this gal who didn't repost that message, and her account was deleted. She was also IP banned!!!

I still doubt it. Youtube has everybody's email. They would just send you an email. That's why every comment you make gives the video owner an email saying "(insert name here) has just commented on (insert name here)."

If they don't email, they would put it on the homepage or have the admins or moderators say that to people, not random people.

In no way this is true. Think of the consequences...

R1885 is right: that sentence doesn't even makes any sense.
