If! a person with the screen-name of Monkeyman935 contacts you, do not
reply.DO not talk to this person; do not answer any of his/her instant
messages or e-mail.Whoever this person may be, he/she is a suspect for
murder in the death of 56 women (so far) contacted through the
Internet. Please send this to all the women on your buddy list and ask
them to pass this on, as well. This screen-name was seen on Yahoo, AOL,
AIM, and Excite so far.This is not a joke! Please send this to men
too...just in case! Send to everyone you know! Ladies, this is serious.

If this is a chain mail letter, chances are it is not true. I mean, it is always smart to know exactally who you are talking to, and in person get their screen name, but seriously...

I agree with Nickoli.

I really hope this site does not turn into Myspace, what with the chain posts.

This email hoax originated in 2000 as the partly-true Slavemaster warning, which has since devolved into a name-substitution game for online pranksters.

The text above is virtually identical to variants circulating since 2000, except the screen name "Slavemaster" has been replaced with "Monkeyman935."

"Slavemaster" was the online moniker of real-life Internet stalker John E. Robinson, who was charged in June 2000 with the murders of five women he met in chat rooms. Ultimately, Robinson was named as a suspect in six more killings — for a total of 11 possible victims, not 56 as claimed in the email — but he has not been in a position to threaten society since his incarceration six years ago. In October 2002 a jury found Robinson guilty of three of the murders, and he will eventually face trial for three more.

The earliest "Slavemaster" warnings began circulating around the same time Robinson was first arrested and have never stopped, though they have gone through several variations. In a 2001 variant that appeared prior to "Monkeyman935," the name "SweetCaliGuy4evr" was used. "Monkeyman935" replaced "SweetCaliGuy4ever" in 2002 and that version has circulated ever since.

Update: A variant appeared in May 2006 in which the screen name "jokerkid613/Ja$on MoNeY" has been substituted for previous names.


A little google goes a long way.
