Outline
Message that lists the number of people in a particular group accused of various criminal or immoral activities claims that the group actually represents the 535 members of the Australian Parliament.
Brief Analysis
The claims in the message are utter nonsense. The hoax is a revamped version of an earlier US based message that claimed that the list represented members of the US Congress. And, while the US Congress does have 535 members, the Australian Parliament does not. None of the claims in the message is in any way accurate. Forwarding this message serves only to spread false and misleading information.
