EASY MONEY - NOT A SCAM! I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try
it. 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 of $6.00!
So I thought, "Yeah right, this must be a scam." But like most of us, I was
curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 to each of
the 6 names and address stated in the article. You then place your own name
and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and 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 thought about trying
it. I figured, "What have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, right?"
Then I invested the measly $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, I have
spent more than that on the lottery!! 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. I
promise you that if you follow the directions exactly, that you will start
making more money than you thought possible by doing something so easy!
Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (Print it out or download
it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in! It's easy.
It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (plus postage) IMPORTANT:
This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal; and it is 99%
no risk - it really works! If all of the following instructions are adhered
to, you will receive extraordinary dividends. PLEASE NOTE: Please follow
these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be yours in 20 to 60 days.
This program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the
participants. Please continue its success by carefully adhering to the
instructions. You will now become part of the Mail Order business. In this
business your product is not solid and tangible, it's a service. You are in
the business of developing Mailing Lists. Many large corporations are happy
to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made from the mailing
lists is secondary to the income which is made from people like you and me
asking to be included in that list. Here are the 4 easy steps to success.
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 thievery). 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 : name and address, and
a $1.00 bill. What you are doing requesting a legitimate service and you are
paying for it! 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. Mail
the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:

<DIR><DIR>

#1) R. Fowler, 60 Hemlock Haven, Hampton, NH 03842.

#2) L&R Laughery, 15732 Sturgis Rd., Union City, PA 16438

#3) S. Asfaha, 1700 Four Oaks Rd #217, Eagan, MN 55121-1838

#4) D. Bailey, 13929 Doty Ave. #5, Hawthorne, CA. 90250

#5) P. Title, 2413 Bunker Ln. Unit E, Willoughby, OH 44094

#6) P. M. Brooks, 1245 Clark Str., Galesburg, IL 61401

</DIR></DIR>
STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other
names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc.) and add YOUR Name as number 6 on
the list. STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article
as close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at least
200 newsgroups. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All you need is
200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make! You won't get
very much unless you post like crazy. :) This is perfectly legal! If you
have any doubts, refer to Title 18 Sec.1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery
laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money,
you can use it again, and again. PLEASE REMEMBER that this program remains
successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants and by
their carefully adhering to the directions. Look at it this way. If you are
of integrity, the program will continue and the money that so many others
have received will come your way. NOTE You may want to retain every name and
address sent to you, either on a computer or hard copy and keep the notes
people send you. This VERIFIES that you are truly providing a service.
(Also, it might be a good idea to wrap the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce
the risk of mail theft.) So, as each post is downloaded and the directions
carefully followed, six members will be reimbursed for their participation
as a List Developer with one dollar each. Your name will move up the list
geometrically so that when your name reaches the #1 position you will be
receiving thousands of dollars in CASH!!! What an opportunity for only $6.00
($1.00 for each of the first six people listed above) Send it now, add your
own name to the list and you're in business! DIRECTIONS FOR HOW TO POST TO
NEWSGROUPS Step 1: You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your
own 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 computer's memory. Step 2:
Open a blank 'notepad' file 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 settings, 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.) Step 5 Visit
these message boards and post this article as a new message by highlighting
the text of this letter and selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in the
Subject, this will be the header that everyone sees as they scroll through
the list of postings in a particular 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, 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 $625.00! 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 an 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 those joining the
actual Internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will really
work!!!
