Sorry if this has been asked before, but I recently received an email about Ethos FR. It is supposed to increase gas mileage and reduce emissions. Does this stuff really work? ---

It’s worthless junk. ---

It’s a scam. We’ve explained these things so many times we’re getting carpal tunnel syndrome. ---

I’m sure that it works! After all, don’t you usually receive very valuable information in unsolicited spam e-mails? ;-)) Seriously, I would suggest that you avoid this scam, just as you should avoid anything being sold in that manner. ---

Why worry about fuel mileage anyway. Money should be irrelevant due to the fact you have 40 million dollars awaiting you in a Nigerian account after the death of a father/king/queen/oil minister/finance minister who died/was assassinated/or generally came up missing. That’s just as believeable as Ethos. ---

Hey, that’s MY money!
