IF THIS THING ACTUALLY WORKS, I'LL BE TOTALLY AMAZED AND HAVE LOTS OF

DOLLARS.So what the h!!!,it's only 5 bucks out of my pocket



The following article and close facsimiles have been circulating for

some time on the newsgroups so I thought I would try it out. I sure hope

it works and in theory it should. So please take 3 minutes to read what

follows and it could be one of the best decisions you ever made. It's

OUICK,HONEST,and LEGAL and if the directions are followed a significant

amount of money can be made. Why not give it at least a quick read? What

have you got to lose?



ARTICLE



I saw an article in a internet newsgroup telling me that I could make an

average of $50,000 within a couple of months for an investment of only

$5 dollars.



I quickly assumed it had to be a 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, I realized all I had to lose was $5 dollars

in my wallet. I figured, what the heck,and decided to give it a shot. A

friend told me that she invested $5 dollars because of the article I

showed her and later she began recieving money in the mail! Soon

hundreds, and then thousands of dolars began to roll in. Within 4 weeks,

she had recieved a total of $12,243! It came from every where in the

world and was still pouring in I had initially rejected the ides but

after some serious brainstorming and research, I was convinced. In the

worst case scenario all I would lose would be $5 dollars in my wallet. I

spent that on lunch alone.



If you follow the three steps below there is no reason why the same

profits shouldn't happen to you! This is a legitimate investment oppor

tunity. You invest $5 dollars and you recieve a return of your

investment. So does the next invester.



NOT ILLEGAL-NOT A CHAIN LETTER-PERFECTLY LEGITIMATE



If you are not intrested simply don't participate, but please print this

article and pass it on to someone who may be interested so they can take

advantage.



The procedure is simple:



1) Write your name, address, country and e-mail address (optional) on 5

sheets of papper. Below that, write the words, "Please add me to your

mailing list." You should use thick dark paper to discourage mail theft.

Fold a $1 U.S.bill or near equivalent in foreign currencies (make sure

it is a paper currency as coins are difficult to exchange in foreign

countries) in each piece of paper and mail them to the followin 5

addresses:



1. Tom Laurinavicius

   1355 E53rd st.

   Brooklyn,NY 11234 USA



2. K Salvosky

   PO Box 1885-148A Street

   Surrey,British Columbia

   Canada  V4A 6R5



3. D Rehkamp

   1028 Bromo Avenue

   St Cloud, MN 56303



4. JC

   78-1 Drexelbrook Drive

   Drexel Hill, Pa 19026



5. Brian Denithorne

   PO Box 272

   Phoenixville Pa 19460



You are now in the mail order investment business and should start

seeing returns within several weeks. Of course, the more newsgroups you

post to, the greater the return will be. If you wish to remain

anonymous, you may use a psuedonym but MAKE SURE YOUR ADDRESS IS

CORRECT!



IS THIS LEGAL??



Yes it is! You are using the internet to advertise your business.



What is your business??



You are assembling a mailing list of people who are intrested in

home-based computer and online businesses as a method of generating

income at home.

People send you a small fee($1U.S.or equivalent in foreign paper

currency)to be added to your list. This is legal. Look it up.



What will you do with your list of thousands of manes??



This is up to yoou. You may sell it to direct marketing firms,share it,

or whatever else you want to do. Either way, the money recieved is legal

income.



FOLLOW THE RULES



They are tried and true, they are legal and they work if everyone is

honest. No need to re-invent the wheel. Also, be sure to keep a record

of everyone that sends you a request. This is your mailing list and the

more it grows the more it will be worth to you, and to others, such as

direct marketing firms, who may wish to purchase your list at a later

date.



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' posting more and

more. All that growth means profits for everyone who participates. There

are no losers. Even if you only make a few hundred dollars you still

turned a profit.



Statistics show that an average responce rate is about 3%. So for every

350 postings you make you should recieve an average of 10 responses. Yes

only 10. You will make $10 for every 350 postings with your name at #5.



Each of the 10 people who sent you $1 now also make 350 additional

postings with your name at #4. 10x350=3500 postings. These 10 people

should get back 10 responses each. 10x10=100 responses therefore 100

people will send you $1 with your name at #4. $100



Your 100 new agents make 350 posting each with your name at #3 or 35,000

postings. Average return is 1000 responses therefore $1000. These 1000

make 350 posting each with your name at #2 or 350,000 posting. Average

return is 10,000 responses therefore $10,00.



These final 10,000 people make 350 postings with your name at #1 and you

get a return of $100,000 before your name drops of the list. The total

possible income of one cycle is $10+$100+$1000+$10,000+$100,000=111,110



THATS IF EVERYONE DOWN-LINE MAKES ONLY 350 POSTINGS!!



The reason why the average income is around 50,000 is because of the

inevitable loss of people down-line due to lack of faith in the system

and because of people adding there names to the list but not sending out

the $5.



THE ONLY COST IS $5 U.S., 5 STAMPS AND 5 ENVELOPES

Anyone can afford to invest $5, especially when the returns are so

spectacular.



Some people have said to me, "What happens if the idea is played out and

no one sends any money?". Big Deal, so you lose $5- but the chances of

that happening are minimal because there are millions of internet users

and tens of thousands of new Net sufers 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.



Try to keep a list of everyone that sends you money and always keep an

eye on the postings to make sure everyone is playing fairly. You know

where your name should be.



REMEMBER-HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.



YOU DO NOT NEED TO CHEAT THIS IDEA TO MAKE MONEY!!! 



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 $49.00? or

$122 Give it a chance...you will be surprised.

HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS FAST WITH YOUR WEB BROWSER



If you have Netscape 3.0 do EXACTLY the following:



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 type a message in.



2) Leave the newsgroup box like it is, CHANGE the suject 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

whole article WORD FOR WORD,except insert your name at #5, and remove #1

off the list, plus any other 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 to #5 below



NOTE: If you don't want to type in the whole article by hand, AND you

know how to use plain text editor(like Notepad), you can edit the file

ahead of time, the attach it as shown in step 6



5)If you still have all your text, send or post to this newsgroup now by

just clicking send, which is right below FILE, and right above Cc:



6) Here's where you are going to post all 350. 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. Cick on ATTACH FILE, then find YOUR file that if

you did this right, you should see your file name in the attachment box,

and it will 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.



(NOTE: If you have an easier way to post your edited article to

newsgroups please add that information to the above. Thanks.)



If you have IE EXPLORER it is just as easy:



HOLD DOWN THE LEFT MOUSE BUTTON, highlight this article. Then press the

"ctrl" key 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 U.S. to.



2) Go to the newsgroups and press "post an article". A window will open.

Type in your headline in the suject area and then click in the large

window below. Press "ctrl" and then "v" 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 repeat is "ctrl" and "v" and press post.



3)That's it. Each time you do this,all you have to do is type in a

different newsgroup, so that way it posts to 350 DIFFERENT newsgroups,

or more



(NOTE: If you have an eaiser way to post your edited article to

newsgroups please add that information to the above. Thanks.)



You see? Now you just have 349 to go!!(Don't worry, each one takes about

20 seconds, once you get used to it



REMEMBER 350 IS THE MINIMUM. The more you post the more money you will

recieve.



THAT'S IT THESE ARE THE ONLY STEPS!! GOOD LUCK!!
