> I've seen this money making opportunity for some time now & ignored it
many

> You may think it is a scam too, like I did but if you read on and give
this

>
> I just couldn't imagine the money people were talking about in this letter
> and that it was obtainable but you know the old saying "If it sounds too
> good to be true, it probably is.".... So I continued to

> A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are
> now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make
> thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment

>
> So I thought," Yeah, right, this must be a scam", but like most of us, I
was

name

> least 200 newsgroups.

> Finally the curiosity in me was the motivation after reading the letter
many

risk"....besides,
> I've lost that much in seconds playing lotteries,
> betting at the track or going to a casino not to mention sports pools at
> work with the latest game of the week up for grabs.
>
> The thing that I notice is.... we live in a gambling society. How many of
us
> spend that on cigarettes, lottery tickets and other wastes of our money?
How
> many of us invest? Isn't the stock market a gamble too?
> People say it's an investment but it's also a gamble.... there are no sure
> things in life but this idea of risking $6.00 to me is NOT a gamble. It
has
> already worked for me and I have seen the results. I can't believe this
> worked and the more I post this, the more I make!!!
>
> I like to think of this as an investment and the wonderful dividends it
> provides to the honest person who partakes in this great opportunity.

> Hey Christmas is around the corner and with people contributing to their
> Christmas Clubs in their banks for that special time of the year...this

>
> This is one time I'm glad the better of me decided to "go for it" and it
has

you

> READ ON ???? Here's how it works just follow the instructions like it says

> Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the
> legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office
> (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal!
>
> Then I invested the small sum of $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT!!... within 7
days,
> I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end
> soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about
> $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made a total of over
$1,000.00!
> In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This is
now
> my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it's
> still coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 stamps.
>
> Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works....also,
> make sure you print a copy of this article NOW, so you can get the
> information off of it as you need it.
>
> STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each
piece
> of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 6 US $1.00 bills
and
> place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bill will not be
seen
> through the envelope to prevent theft. OK, Next, place
> one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them. You should now have 6
> sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase,
your

service
> by this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! Mail the 6 envelopes to the following

200,

> ---DIRECTIONS---HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS----

posting.
> Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this letter and drag your
cursor
> to the bottom of this document, and select 'copy' from the edit menu. This
> will copy the entire letter into the computers memory.
>
> Step 2) Open a blank "notepad" file under accessories in windows and place
> your cursor at the top of the blank page. From the 'edit' menu select
> 'paste'. This will paste a copy of the letter into notepad so that you can
> add your name to the list.
>
> Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you want to do your
> postings in different sittings, you'll always have this file to go back
to.
>
> Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and try searching for various
> newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.)

by

> group, click the post message button. You're done with your first one!
>
> Congratulations...THAT'S IT!
>
> All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away, after
you
> get the hang of it, it will take about 30 seconds for each newsgroup!
>
> **REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL
> MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**
>
> That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within
days!
> You may eventually want to rent a P.O.Box due to the large amount of mail
> you will receive. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can invent a name to
> use, as long as the postman will deliver it. **JUST MAKE SURE
> ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT.**
>
> Now the WHY part: Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a
very
> low example). So then I made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now,
> each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200
postings,
> each with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond
> to each of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25
each
> make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each, I will
> bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and
post
> the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will
> make an additional $626.00!
>
> OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200
> letters with my name at #2 and they each only receive 5 replies, that just
> made me $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to
> 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200
newsgroups
> react I will receive $15,625,00! With a original investment of only $6.00!
> AMAZING!
>
> When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting
in
> the newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to names on the list, putting
> your name at number 6 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 everyday, JUST
> LIKE YOU are now!! So can you afford $6.00 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
