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?" 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:

#1) Nate Thompson 6881 Kings Gate Dr. Fayetteville, N.C. 28314
#2) Becky Minor 3729 Main Parsons, KS.67357
#3) D. Williams Flat 1/23 Freshwater St, Scarness, QLD, 4655, Australia
#4) J Davis 605 Salak Rd. Greenwood, S.C. 29646
#5) Lorraine Watson P.O. Box 153 Davis, Il. 61019
#6) Rhonda Griffin 10956 South Green Street, Chicago, IL 60643

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. . (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!
