NEW VERSION FOR 1997!!  (Legal questions addressed!!)

        In late October of 1996, I saw an article in an internet 
newsgroup telling
me that I could make $50,000.00 within a month for an investment of only
$5.00.  I thought,  "OH YEAH!!!  I'VE GOT  A BRIDGE I'LL SELL YOU 
TOO!!!"
It sounded like all the rest of the "get rich quick" schemes and scams 
I've
seen over the past few years.

        I spoke to my attorney, a few friends and my wife about it, and 
they all
agreed it was some kind of scam.  I can't stand scams, because usually
someone gets burned, and I didn't want it to be me.  After rejecting the
idea at first, it kind of played on my mind and I thought, "What if it
really worked?"  I realized all I had to lose was $5.00,  I usually blow
that much on the lottery every week anyway, so I figured what the heck, 
and
decided to give it a shot.

        Within two weeks I began receiving money in the mail!  Soon, 
hundreds, and
then thousands of dollars began to roll in.  Within 4 weeks, I had 
received
a total of $41,219.00!  It came from everywhere in the world.  Lately, 
I've
doubled my efforts and the money is rolling in even faster.  I would 
tell
you how much but then the IRS would know also, let's just say it's a 
VERY
comfortable living.  Now, I am really going to work!  Anybody can afford 
to
gamble $5.00 on a chance to make $35,000.00 or more in a month, 
especially
when the business has already proven itself.

        If you follow the three steps below, there is no reason why the 
same
shouldn't happen to you!  This is a legitimate investment opportunity.  
You
invest $5.00, and you receive a return on your investment.  So does the
next investor.  THIS IS NOT ILLEGAL!  THIS IS NOT A CHAIN LETTER!  THIS 
IS
PERFECTLY LEGITIMATE! (See additional legal details below.)

THE PROCEDURE IS SIMPLE:

        1) Invest your $5.00 by writing your name and address on five 
seperate
pieces of paper along with the words: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING 
LIST."
 (In this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone; you're 
paying
for a legitimate service.)  Fold on $1.00 U.S. Treasury bill, money 
order,
or bank note inside each piece of paper, and mail them by standard U.S.
Mail to the following five addresses:
        
        1.  R. Johnson, Jr.
             P.O Box 516
             Dalton, GA   30772-0516

        2.  J. Russell
             872 W. Bigelow
             Findlay, OH   45840

        3.  Silvestre Domingo Magos
             1833 Vicente Dr.
             San Luis Obispo, CA   93405

        4.  L. Lehr
             329 Lafayette Rd.
             Carneys Point, NJ  08069-2543

        5.  G. Seidler
             379 Walnut St.
             Stoughton, MA 02072

        2) Now remove the top name from the list, and move the other 
four names
up.  In other words, #5 becomes #4 and so on.  Put your name as the 
fifth
one on the list.  You can do this by simply retyping the article or
reposting it to other newsgroups with the edited addresses.

        3) Post the article to at least 200 newsgroups.  There are 
22,000, so it
shouldn't be hard to find that many.  Remember, there are no "Free 
Lunches"
in this world and so the harder you work the more money you will make.

        You are now in the mail order investment business, and should 
start seeing
returns within a week or two.  Of course, the more newsgroups you post 
to,
the greater your return will be.  If you wish to remain anonymous, you 
may
use a pseudonym, but make sure address is correct.

                LEGAL ???

        People have asked me if this is really legal, and it is.  You 
are using
the Internet to advertise your business.  What is that business?  You 
are
assembling a mailing list of people who are interested in home based
computer and online businesses and methods of generating income at home.
REMEMBER - people send you small fee to be added to your list.  It is
legal.  What will you do with your list of thousands of names?  That's 
up
to you.

        HERE IS WHY THE SYSTEM WORKS:

        The internet is growing at a tremendous rate - it doubles in 
size every 4
months.  Think about it.  You see those "Make Money Fast" posts more and
more.  All that growth means profits for everyone who participates.  
There
are no losers.

        Of every 200 posts I made, I received roughly 5 responses.  That 
probably
doesn't seem like much.  You make $5.00 for every 200 posts with your 
name
at #5.

        Each person who sent you $1.00 now also makes 200 additional 
postings with
your name at #4. i.e. 1000 postings.  On average, 50 people will send 
you
$1.00 with your name at #4.  That's $50.00

        Your 50 new agents make 200 postings each with your name at #3 
or 10,000
postings.  Average return 500 people=$500.00.  They make 200 postings 
each
with your name at #2=100,000 postings=5000 returns at $1.00 each=$5,000.

        Finally, 5,000 people make 200 postings with your name at #1 and 
you get a
return of $50,000 before your name drops off the list.  AND THAT'S IF
EVERYONE DOWN THE LINE MAKES ONLY 200 POSTINGS!  Total income in one 
cycle
= $50,000.

        From time to time, when you see your name no longer on the list, 
you take
the latest posting that appears in the newsgroups, and send out another
$5.00, and put your name at #5, and start posting again.  Remember, 200
postings is only a guideline.  The more you post, the greater the 
return.

        Lets review why you should do this.  THE ONLY COST IS $5.00, 5 
STAMPS, AND
5 ENVELOPES.  Anyone can afford $5.00 for such an effortless investment
with such SPECTACULAR RETURNS.

        Some people have said to me, "What happens if the scheme is 
played out and
no one sends me any money?"  BIG DEAL, so you lose $5.00.  But what are 
the
chances of that happening?  SINCE THIS IS A BRAND NEW PROGRAM AS OF 
JANUARY
1997, YOU'RE IN ON THE GROUND FLOOR!

        There are millions of internet users, and millions of new net 
surfers
every month.  REMEMBER - read the instructions carefully, and play 
fairly.
THAT'S the only way this will work.  Get a printout so you can refer 
back
to this article easily.

        Keep a list of everyone that sends you money, keep good books, 
pay your
taxes, and always keep an eye on the postings to make sure everyone is
playing fairly.  You know where your name should be.

        If you're really not sure or still think this can't be for real, 
then
don't do it.  But please print this article and pass it along to someone
you know who really needs the bucks, and see what happens.

        REMEMBER - HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.  WHAT IS $5.00 TO YOU?  
YOU DON'T
NEED TO CHEAT THIS IDEA TO MAKE MONEY!!!  (We will monitor the program 
and
if we find you have cheated by not sending your money to your five
recipients, we will just dump you out of the system.)  This is the 
easiest
way that you can make a buck.  Think how excited you'll be to open up 
your
mailbox day after day!  Will it be $50.00 or $5,000.00??  Start making 
your
plans, because it can happen to you.

DON'T PASS UP THIS ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY!!!

EXTRA SECTION:

HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS FAST WITH YOUR WEB BROWSER:

The fastest way to post to a Newsgroup:

Simply highlight and COPY (Control-C for copy) the text this e-mail 
message
and PASTE it into a text editor such as Notepad and SAVE it (as a .txt
file).

After you have made the necessary changes that are outlined above, 
simply
COPY and PASTE the text into the message section of the message 
composition
window and to be posted to the Newsgroup and post it.!

***********************************************************

If you have Netscape 3.0 follow these simple steps:

1) Click on any Newsgroup like normal, THEN click on 'TO NEWS', which is 
on
the far left when you're in the Newsgroup 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
entire article WORD FOR WORD, except insert your name at #5, and remove 
#1
off the list, plus anyother 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.

NOTE:  If you don't want to type in the whole article by hand, AND you 
know
how to use a plain text editor (like NOTEPAD), you can edit the file 
ahead
of time, then attach it as shown in step 6.

5) If you still have all of your text, send or post to this Newsgroup 
now
just by clicking send, which is right below FILE, and right above Cc:.

6)  Here's where you're going to post to all 200.  OK, click on any
Newsgroup 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.  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 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 wil be shaded
green.

Note:  If you don't want to type in the whole article and you know how 
to
use a plain text editor (Notepad), you can edit the file ahead of time,
then attach it.

QUICK TIP!!!

You can post this message to many Newsgroups at a time by simply 
selecting
a Newsgroup near the top of the screen, hold down the SHIFT key, and 
then
select a Newsgroup near the bottom of the screen.  All of the Newsgroups 
in
between will also be selected.

IF YOU USE INTERNET EXPLORER IT'S JUST AS EASY...HOLDING DOWN THE LEFT
MOUSE BUTTON, highlight this article.  Then press the "control" 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 $1.00 
bills.

Go to the Newsgroup and press "post an article".  A window will open.  
Type
in your headline in the subject area then click in the large window 
below.
Press "control" and the "v" keys 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 every time you post the article in a new Newsgroup all you 
have
to do is press "control" and "v" and press post.

That's all there is to it.  Each time you do this, all you have to do is
type in a different Newsgroup, until you have posted it to 200 or more
DIFFERENT Newsgroups.

You see?  Now you just have 199 more 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
receive.  AND THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT!!!

DON'T LET THIS ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY PASS YOU BY!!!  START
ENJOYING THE GOOD LIFE, YOU DESERVE IT!!!
