23. Lights-Out Gang Member Initiation (1998)
People have a tendency to believe e-mail messages that come from authority figures. In 1998, a message purportedly from a police officer working with the DARE program circulated around the Internet. It warned recipients not to flash their lights to inform oncoming cars that their headlamps were off. According to the message, a recently devised gang initiation ritual involved having new gang members drive at night with their headlights turned off until an oncoming car flashed its lights at them; then, in order to become initiated, they were to shoot everyone in that car. It's just another urban myth--and about as silly as the one claiming that gangs mark off their territory by hanging sneakers from power lines.

maybe a local gang copied it off that "hoax" but they follow you home to your house and murder you
its funny, because alot of those could be 100% true, and they could be the one hoaxing us cause they dont want us to believe soemthing on it.
the rozwell alien thing and moon landing could have been the reason for that, and they had a bunch of obviously fake ones to draw the belief of the reader then threw those 2 into the mix to get us to believe they are fakes
