The following information is about Hoax.
Hoax Defined
The most common hoax, however, is the hoax virus. This usually consists of an Email message warning recipients about a new and terribly destructive virus. It ends by suggesting that the reader should warn his or her friends and colleagues, perhaps by simply forwarding the original message to everyone in their address book. The result is a rapidly growing proliferation of pointless emails that can increase to such an extent that they overload systems.
This definition is in context to Information Security. See more contextual defintions for Hoax.
