Hello, How would you like to earn $$$EXTRA MONEY$$$ just by following a few simple instructions. It's as easy as reading this message and making a decision. A few days ago I received the message that will follow. This was not the first time I had received such a message but after reviewing the message and discussing it with others, I decided to give it a GO! I mailed 5 one dollar bills as instructed to the individuals listed in the original message and then added my address to the list. What did I really have to lose?..........Well, about $10.00 (the cost of five $1 bills plus postage) - not much when I considered what I stood to gain if the program was genuine. I looked at it this way. How often have I spent $10.00 and had nothing to show for it a couple of hours later. So why not invest $10.00. Even if I only received $15.00 back, I would still have made a profit of $5.00 - not a lot - but a 50% return on my original investment. So what do you have to lose??? Give it a try - just follow the instructions listed in the following message and mail $1.00 to each of the five individuals listed below. The message starts as: "THIS IS THE FAIREST AND MOST HONEST WAY I KNOW TO SHARE THE WEALTH! Hello! How would you like to make thousands of dollars, quickly, legally, and with NO CATCH? Then keep reading....please take five minutes to read this article and it will change your life, just like it did mine. It's true! You can make up to (or over) $50,000 dollars in 4-6 weeks, maybe sooner! I SWEAR I'M NOT LYING TO YOU, AND THIS IS NOT A SCAM! If you're interested, keep reading; if you're not, I apologize for wasting your time. Here we go. A little while back, I was browsing through these newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars in weeks with only an initial investment of $5! So, I thought, "Yeah, right, must be a scam", but I was curious, like most of us - so I kept reading. Anyway, I was invited to send $1 to each of the 5 names and addresses stated in the article, then place my own name and address in the article at the bottom of the list at #5. Finally, I was invited to post the article in at least 200 newsgroups (there are thousands). No catch, that was it! So after thinking it over, and talking to a few people first, I tried it. I figured, what have I got to lose except for 5 stamps and $5, right? Well, guess what...within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I still figured it would end soon, and didn't give it another thought. But then money kept coming IN, tripling in size and multiplying by 10-20 times the amount that I got the first week! In my first week I made about 20 to 30 dollars. But by the end of the second week, I had made a total of over $1,000!!!! In the third week, I had over $10,000 dollars, and it's still growing. This is my fourth week (Oct 11) and I've made about $42,000 TOTAL. And the money is still coming in!!!!!! Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, WHY it works. Also, make sure you print a copy of the article NOW, so you get the information off of it, and begin making money. The process is very simple, and it consists of 3 EASY steps: STEP 1: Get 5 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each sheet of paper... "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST. YOU ARE NUMBER 4." Get five $1 bills and place ONE inside each piece of paper that you just wrote on, and fold each piece of paper so the bill will not be seen in the envelope (otherwise, nosey people who like to steal envelopes with money in them will get yours). Put one paper inside the envelope and seal it. Do the same for all five. You should now have 5 envelopes sealed, EACH have a piece of paper AND a $1 bill stuffed inside of the paper. Make sure those words that were stated above are stated on each paper. What you are doing is creating a service by this, this is PERFECTLY LEGAL. Now mail the 5 envelopes with the paper and $1 in each to the following 5 addresses: 1. H. H., 435 Franklin TPA Apt 15 Mahwah, N.J. 07430 2. Bruce, P.O. Box 63 4700 Keele St., North York, ONTARIO, M3J 1P3 3. Corey, P.O. Box 810096, Dallas, TX 75381 4. Thomas, P.O. Box 381, Lancaster, Tx. 75146-0381 5. Ashley, P.O. Box 395, Napier New Zealand STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other 4 names up (5 becoming 4, 4 becoming 3, etc.) and put YOUR NAME as number 5 on the list. You can slightly alter this article if you need to, editing what you need to edit. STEP 3: Post your amended article (with your name at #5) to at least 200 news groups ( I think there are close to 18,000 of them). All you need is say, at least 200. HOW TO DO THIS: If you have Netscape 3.0 do EXACTLY the following: 1) Click on any news group like normal, THEN click on 'TO NEWS', which is on the far left when you're in the newsgroups page. This will bring up a box to type a message in. 2) Leave the newsgroup box like it is, CHANGE the subject box to something flashy, like, "NEED CASH $$$ READ HERE $$$" or "FAST CASH"!!! 3) Tab once and you should be ready to type. Now, retype (only once) THIS whole article WORD FOR WORD, except to insert your name at #5, and to remove #1 off the list, plus any other small changes you think you need to make. Keep almost all of it the SAME! 4) When you're done typing the WHOLE article, click on `FILE' in THIS BOX, RIGHT ABOVE SEND, NOT WHERE IT SAYS NETSCAPE NEWS ON THE FIRST BOX. Click on `SAVE AS' when you're under `FILE'. Save your article as a text file to your C: or A: drive. DO NOT SEND OR POST YOUR ARTICLE UNTIL YOU DO THIS. Once saved, move on to number 5 below. 5) If you still have all of your text, send or post to this newsgroup now by just clicking send, which is right below FILE, and right above Cc: . 6) Here's where you're going to post all 200. OK, click on any news group then click on 'TO NEWS', again in the top left corner. Leave the NEWSGROUPS BOX alone again, put a flashy subject title in the SUBJECT BOX, hit TAB once you're in the body of the message, and then click on ATTACHMENTS, which is below the SUBJECT BOX. You will get another box to come up. Click on ATTACH FILE, then find YOUR file that you saved; click once on the file, and then click OPEN' now click on OK; if you did this right, you should see your file name in the attachments box, and it will be shaded green. IF YOU USE IE EXPLORER IT'S JUST AS EASY...HOLDING DOWN THE LEFT MOUSE BUTTON, HIGHLIGHT THIS ARTICLE. THEN PRESS THE "CRTL" KEY AND THE "C" KEY AT THE SAME TIME TO COPY THIS ARTICLE. THEN PRINT THIS ARTICLE FOR YOUR RECORDS TO HAVE THE NAMES OF THOSE YOU WILL BE SENDING $1 BILLS TO. NEXT GO TO THE NEWS GROUPS AND PRESS "POST AN ARTICLE" A WINDOW WILL OPEN. TYPE IN YOUR HEADLINE IN THE SUBJECT AREA AND THEN CLICK IN THE LARGE WINDOW BELOW. PRESS "CRTL" AND THEN "V" AND THE ARTICLE WILL BE PLACED IN THE WINDOW. IF YOU WANT TO EDIT THE ARTICLE, DO SO AND THEN HIGHLIGHT AND COPY IT AGAIN. NOW EVERYTIME YOU POST THE ARTICLE IN A NEW NEWSGROUP ALL YOU HAVE TO REPEAT "CTRL" AND "V" AND PRESS POST. 7)That's it. Each time you do this, all you have to do is type in a different newsgroup, so that way, it posts to 200 DIFFERENT newsgroups, you see? Now you just have 199 to go!! (Don't worry, each one takes about 30 seconds, once you get used to it) REMEMBER 200 IS THE MINIMUM. The more you post the more money you will make. AND THAT'S IT!!! THAT'S THE ONLY 3 STEPS THERE ARE!!! You are now in the mail order business and will start recieving your $1 envelopes from various people all over the world within days. HINT: THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST TO, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE. You may want to rent a PO Box eventually because of all the mail. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can come up with a name, such as "manager" or "investor". Just make sure all the addresses are CORRECT, please. LET ME TELL YOU WHY THIS SYSTEM WORK!!!! Out of every 200 postings, let's say I ONLY recieve 5 replies, which is actually VERY LOW. So I made 5 dollars with my name at #5. Now then, each person who just sent me $1 makes, say only 200 postings, now with your name at number 4, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF 1000 POSTINGS, not including yours too. 50 people send you $1 now; thats $50 you just made! Now, then your new 50 agents post 200 each with YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 3, OR 10,000 POSTING (50x200). Average return is 500 at $1 each is $500. They make 200 postings, which is 5,000 returns at $1 each, which is $5000 dollars! And finally, 5000 people make 200 postings wach with YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 1. YOU NOW GET A RETURN OF $50,000 BEFORE YOUR NAME DROPS OFF THE LIST. AND THAT'S IF EVERYONE MAKES 200 POSTINGS ONLY, AND IF ONLY 5 PERSONS RESPOND!!!!! When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting that is appearing in the newsgroups, and SEND OUT ANOTHER $5 TO THE NAMES ON THE LIST, PUTTING YOUR NAME AT 5 AGAIN. And start posting again. The thing to remember is, do you realize that THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE JOINING THE INTERNET AND READING THESE ARTICLES EVERY DAY, JUST LIKE YOU ARE RIGHT NOW!!! So can afford $5 dollars and see if it really works? I think so..... People have said, "What if the plan is played out and no one sends you the money?" So what! What are the chances of that happening when there are TONS OF NEW HONEST USERS AND NEW HONEST PEOPLE who are joining the Internet and newsgroups everyday and are willing to give it a try? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with THOUSANDS of those joing the actual Internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this WILL WORK, I PROMISE YOU!!! You just have to be honest. Make sure you print this article out RIGHT NOW, also, try to keep a list of everyone that sends you money and always keep an eye on the mnewsgroups to make sure everyone is playing fairly. REMEMBER, HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. YOU DON'T NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE MONEY!! GOOD LUCK TO ALL AND PLEASE PLAY FAIRLY AND YOU WILL REAP THE HUGE REWARDS FROM THIS, WHICH IS TONS OF EXTRA CASH!!! **By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages with your name on the list and not sending the money to the people already on the list, you will not get much. Someone I talked to knew someone who did that and he only made $150 dollars, and that's AFTER seven or eight weeks! Then he sent the 5 $1 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks, he had over $10K. THIS IS THE FAIREST AND MOST HONEST WAY I HAVE EVER SEEN TO SHARE THE WEALTH OF THE WORLD WITHOUT COSTING ANYTHING BUT OUR TIME!!! "
