Recently, BlackBerry subscribers have received a BBM saying that RIM is donating 35 cents every time the BBM is passed on. RIM has denied the messages.

The message says, “Because of what has transpired in Haiti recently, Blackberry has decided to help out and give 35 cents for the cause when you pass this message along to your friends on BBM (btw how blackberry sees this is through their RedCross symbol).”

A spokesperson told MSNBC that RIM is “donating funds as well as BlackBerry devices to the relief effort, but not by charging through BBM messages.”
