Internet Service Provider. You should receive your email copy within
the next few days.
From (name of your) ISP
Dear (your email address)
Due to the recent high volume of online viruses, the internet will be
shut down until further notice. This is the only way to stop the
spread of computer viruses. This should only be a short delay, and
the full internet should be reactivated with one to two years, once we
are able to rid all worldwide computers of viruses. However, due to
popular demand, Ebay will still be available, allowing you to purchase
DVDs, VHS movies, and other items to fill your spare time that you
would normally spend on the internet. However, when you are the
winning bidder on Ebay, you will not be able to email the bidder, and
will have to resort to traditional mail to contact the seller or
buyer. Ebay will be the ONLY website which you will be able to
access, and all other internet services will be disabled, including
email, newsgroups, instant messenger services and much more.
This internet shutdown will be activated at midnight at the beginning
of the day of April 1, 2004. Please be reassurred that all Internet
Service Providers are working together in this matter, and you will
receive full credit for any and all monies that you have paid for your
internet service, and this credit will be applied as soon as the
internet is reactivated in the future. However, because this problem
has occurred as no fault of our own, we are unable to refund any money
for service not received. This is the risk that any and all internet
users assume when subscribing to a service which has a history of
unpredictability, and functions in the world as a new technology not
yet proven to be reliable. We will however strive to resume service
as quickly as we possibly can. Thank you for understanding, and
remember, we are here to assist you if you encounter any serious
problems due to this shutdown.
Sincerely,
(name of your ISP administrator)
