Default everyone seens the alleged A320 pax pics email?

I got two, at about the same time.

Two fairly graphic pics. The entire arse of the plane is gone, you can
see the sea! Pax with masks on. 2nd pic, someone flyin' out the back.

Text of the email goes like this...

Air France

The world saw the disappearance of an A330 Air France during its trans
Atlantic flight between Rio to Paris .
Here are two shots taken inside the plane before it crashed.
The two photos attached were taken by one of the passengers before the
aircraft crashed. This extraordinary photographer kept his cool, even in
his last moments of life, to take these photos. The photos were
retrieved from the camera's memory stick. You will never again see
photos like this.
In the first photo, there is a gaping hole in the fuselage through which
you can see the tailplane and a vertical fin of the aircraft.
In the second photo, one of the passengers is seen being sucked out of
the gaping hole.



The photos were found in a digital Casio Z750, amidst the debris.
Although the camera was destroyed, the Memory Stick was recovered.
Investigating the serial number of the camera, the owner was identified
as Paulo G. Muller, an actor of a theatre for children known in the
outskirts of Porto Alegre .. It can be imagined that he was standing
during the turbulence, he managed to take these photos, just seconds
after the tail loss and the aircraft plunged. The structural stress
probably ripped the engines away, diminishing the falling speed,
protecting the electronic equipment but unfortunately not the victims.
Paulo Muller leaves behind two daughters, Bruna and Beatriz.
