The *between the lines* version: > I found this message on a bulletin board just as you have now. > > Like you I thought, this cannot be possible but 'let's give it a go'. > Thankfully I 'gave it a go', risked a whole �6.00, it is as you read working > for me and returning me �6,000.00 within weeks. Try harder than me and it > could return you � 60,000 within weeks. �6.00 to �6,000 or even � 60,000. > "Yeah right, this must be a scam." And of course it was, but then I thought: "why am I not dipping my own bread in the gravy?" and the rest as they say is history. > Anyway, the message said the following: > > 1 Send just �1.00 to each of the 6 imbeciles and address stated below. > 2 You then place your own name and address in the bottom of this list > below at number 6. > 3 You pester at least 200 newsgroups with your unsolicited spam (I know of 40,000 and > said only about 200). > 4 Wait for fuck all to happen after that. > Then I invested the measly �6.00. Followed the instructions and GUESS WHAT? > within seven days, I started getting money in the mail! I pissed myself at the gullibility of these people! 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 still it flows in. > > So how and more importantly why does this work? I promise you that if you > follow the directions exactly, that you will start making more money than > you thought possible (well, for me anyway) by doing something so easy. > In the main, it doesn't. But it's never stopped gullible cunts with shit for brains allowing themselves to be shafted by crooks looking for a swift buck. > Suggestion: read the entire message carefully! Print it out and then wipe your arse with it. > Follow the simple directions and watch my money come in! > > It's easy. It's legal, well it isn't actually. It constitutes a chain letter, which has not been legal these past three years - I wonder if my local trading standards officers would like to join the scheme - 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. Asides from all that, the world is square and the moon's made of cheese. > > PLEASE NOTE: please follow these directions EXACTLY, and �50,000 or more can > be mine, sorry, yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful because of the > gullibility and desperation of the participants. > > Please continue its success by carefully adhering to the instructions. You > will now become part of the flim flam business. In this business your > product is not solid and tangible, it's non-existent bollocks. You are in the business > of selling snake oil. Many large corporations are happy to pay big > bucks for quality lists, though sadly not from two-bit losers like you.> > Here are the four 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. MY NAME IS. MY ADDRESS IS.' > Once added to the list, each pillock will send you a new component and / or > money making advice to help you along the way. This advice has been passed > down person to person and is very helpful. > > Now get SIX UK �1.00 coins and place ONE in-between two pieces of card. The > card, with EACH of the six pieces of paper so the coin will not be seen or > felt through the envelope (to prevent thievery). > > Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them. You should > now have six sealed envelopes. > > Each containing a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name and > address, and a �1.00 coin. What you are doing is creating a service. THIS IS > ABSOLUTELY LEGAL in Botswana! You are requesting a non-existent service and you are paying > for it! > > Mail the six envelopes to the following addresses: > > PHIL CLARK > 13 Collywell Bay Road > Seaton Sluice > Tyne and Wear > England > > C D John > 24 Hampton Court Crescent > East Molesey > Surrey > KT8 9BA > > MATT HUDESON > 24 Grafton Road > Whitley Bay > Tyne and Wear > NE26 2NR > > D Mackinnon Jnr > 8 Munro Place > Saltcoats > Ayrshire > KA21 6LG > Scotland > > I Carroll > 30 Richmond Crescent > Mossley > Ashton-under-Lyne > Lancashire > OL5 9LQ > > D V Griffiths > 17 Pantgwynlais > Tongwynlais > Cardiff > CF15 7LS > Wales > > If sending out of your country remember to use $1.00 Bills (which are easier > to send anyway), and International post addresses. > > STEP 2: Now take the number 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 (remember there are close to 40,000 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 gullibility and desperation of the participants and by their carefully adhering to the > directions. Look at it this way. If you are as thick as pigshit, the program will > continue and the money that so many others have received will come my way. > > NOTE: You should keep 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 coin / $1.00 bill in 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 number 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 (easy when there are over 40,000). > > That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within days! > You may eventually want to rent a PO 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 IT WORKS part: > > Out of 200 postings, say I receive only five replies (a very low example). > So then I made �5.00 with my name at number 6 on the letter. Now, each of > the five persons who just sent me �1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each > with my name at number 5 and only five persons respond to each of the > original five, that is another �25.00 for me, now those 25 each make 200 > MINIMUM posts with my name at number 4 and only five 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 number 3 and only receive five 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 number 2 and > they each only receive five replies, that just made me �3,125.00!!! Those > 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my name > at number 1 and if still five 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. > > Why not post more than 200. If you get 15 responses, look at the maths. Here > is what you will make: > > at number 6 �15.00 > at number 5 �225.00 > at number 4 �3,375.00 > at number 3 �50,625.00 > at number 2 �759,375.00 > at number 1 �11,390,625.00 > > Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will really work. Send it to > friends by e-mail and snail mail also. Post it to 1,000's of news groups and > bulletin boards, enjoy the results and prosper!!!! > > Regards and Good Luck! > > >
