** PLEASE...DO TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS ARTICLE FROM START TO FINISH.**
(It contains many VALUABLE NEW TIPS and INSTRUCTIONS to HELP you out!!!)
         
(I am ONLY writing THIS NOW!..because of MY OWN RECENT 'personal experience' 
from responding to an ALMOST SIMILAR posting a few weeks ago! Its' success
is astonishing!...BUT it HAS posed a 'problem' that I feel NEEDS to be 
addressed and that I will explain below...It entails a small, but 'sensible' 
revision AND improvement!...one that I THINK and hope you will AGREE with!)


           
*************************************************************************
"THERE IS A NATURALLY RECURRING LAW THAT EXISTS IN THE UNIVERSE! - A LAW 
OF ABUNDANCE! - THAT SAYS EACH AND EVERONE OF US CAN HAVE THE THINGS WE
NEED AND DESIRE, *WHEN*  WE ARE READY FOR IT". *IF* YOU CAN THINK OF "NEED" 
AND *NOT* "GREED"...YOU are READY!!
************************************************************************** 



                 *QUOTE FROM PERSON ON THE FIRST POSTING*
"THIS WILL BE THE OPPORTUNITY OF THE YEAR FOR YOU! I SWEAR IT WAS FOR ME!!
READ the WHOLE article. I bet that YOU will feel just as I do...GREAT!!"


(IF you are INTERESTED, keep reading: if NOT, I SINCERELY apologize for
wasting your time!)



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

JUST FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS AND *JOIN US* IN A GREAT OPPORTUNITY!


***THIS IS THE NEWEST!! AFFORDABLE!! 'REVISED'/'IMPROVED'!! VERSION!!***

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


HONESTY AND FAIRNESS! - IS WHAT MAKES THIS PROGRAM WORK SO WELL!! IF YOU
CAN'T 'PARTICIPATE' ON THIS BASIS...YOU WILL NOT GAIN IT'S TRULY GREAT
RESULTS AND REWARDS!! EVERYONE HAS DIFFERENT PERSONAL NEEDS FOR MONEY AT 
ANY GIVEN TIME IN THEIR LIVES. WE ARE ALL UNIQUE IN WHAT WE MAY 'NEED'...

The BEST part for me, is NOT being IN DEBT ANY LONGER! AND...finally, being
'ABLE' to give a donation to so many very worthy Charities who ask for my
help! IT JUST WASN'T POSSIBLE BEFORE! (Disabled and unable to work any more,
and 'trying' to live on a very small disability pension)...But NOW, it truly 
makes me feel so happy!...that I CAN HELP OTHERS!....Just 'MY' own personal
way of 'SHARING THE WEALTH'!...and gaining back.... personal 'self-worth'

PLEASE!.... DO NOT TRY TO CHEAT THIS PROGRAM. THERE'S JUST NO NEED TO!
SIMPLY ADD ONE NAME - YOURS! -  AND REPOST THE ARTICLE.


                    *************************************
                     NOTE RE: 'MY OWN' RECENT EXPERIENCE
                    *************************************

THIS NEW PROGRAM has been *REVISED* in TWO WAYS!...you will notice *SIX* 

names instead of five. "The reason for this is the 'FLOOD' of five name 

programs AND the *SIXTH* name can ADD $50,000 to $90,000!  This is proven 

both mathematically AND in MY bank account! I KNOW it's hard to believe that 

this program works, BUT IT DOES!"  This second NEW "REVISED* PROGRAM has 

ALSO been STREAMLINED to be 'LOGISTICALLY' MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE! It NOW ALSO 

SUGGESTS SENDING *$2US* INSTEAD of *$1US*...so that ONE ENVELOPE WILL BE AS 

EFFECTIVE AS TWO! This way, the SHEER VOLUME of mail is MUCH LESS!..while 

RETURNS can be GREATER!..thus, it SHOULD be BETTER FOR EVERYONE all round!  

Just THINK about it....


Your TOTAL INVESTMENT  becomes $12 instead of $6....BUT considering how we 

ALL probably KNOW how easily that extra $6 can just 'trickle away'..in a week..

WHY NOT PUT IT TO GOOD USE? Just be patient and follow the directions EXACTLY. 

Print out this article NOW, so you have ALL the information to refer back 

to for YOUR version. 


********************
NOW LET'S GET GOING!
********************

STEP 1

INVEST your $12(*US*) by writing YOUR NAME and ADDRESS on SIX separate 

pieces of paper (colored paper is good to help conceal your $1 bills) ALONG 

WITH the words: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST: $2US DOLLARS PROCESSING 

FEE IS ENCLOSED" (You can also mention what # they were on the List).

                              
(In this way, you are NOT just sending $2 to someone: you are ASKING FOR AND

PAYING them for a legitimate service!)


*************************************************************************
*IMPORTANT NOTE* Re: $US dollars only!

People from many DIFFERENT COUNTRIES (different currencies!) 'MAY CHOOSE' 
to join the program and MANY countries do not EVEN HAVE $1 'BILLS'! In 
order to SIMPLIFY things, and be UNIVERSALLY FAIR...it is suggested to SEND 
OUT ONLY $US CURRENCY! You can easily obtain YOUR $US DOLLARS from any Bank, 
IF you are living OUTSIDE THE USA! $US DOLLARS ARE ACCEPTED VIRTUALLY 
ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! This would seem to be FAIR TO ALL!
**************************************************************************

 
People have asked me if this is really LEGAL. YES 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 a small FEE to be ADDED TO YOUR MAILING LIST! 
Legalities have been checked! Chain letters AND pyramid schemes are NOT legal 
in MOST places! THIS is NOT a chain letter OR a pyramid scheme: (ie.YOUR name 
is 'permanently dropped' from this notice AFTER you are at number #1) AND, you
are NOT SENDING A 'LETTER' to ANYONE! YOU ARE SIMPLY PUBLICLY 'POSTING' YOUR 
IDEA for a home-based computer business..which people can either respond to..
...or IGNORE!

THIS PROGRAM IS SIMPLY AN OPPORTUNITY FOR RUNNING YOUR OWN HOME-BASED COMPUTER 
BUSINESS - which IS legal!

NOTE: DO KEEP A GOOD RECORD of EVERONE who sends you money, AND their REQUESTS 
to be ADDED to YOUR mailing list, pay your taxes, and keep an eye on the 
postings to make sure everyone is playing fairly. YOU KNOW where your name 
SHOULD be!

 
PLACE TWO $1(*US*) BILLS INSIDE EACH PAPER with your NAME, ADDRESS and 
REQUEST ON IT (please do as everyone else does, and NOT use checks or money 
orders) and mail them by "snail" mail to the following SIX addresses:

***************************************************************************
*IMPORTANT NOTE!* RE: 'snail' mail..

PLEASE! REMEMBER TO USE CORRECT POSTAGE! FOR ALL MAIL going OUTSIDE your 
OWN Country! (Names will be added from around the world!) WITHOUT CORRECT 
POSTAGE!! - LETTERS DON'T GET DELIVERED!!!

STEP 2

Now REMOVE the TOP NAME from the list, and MOVE the other names UP! one 
place! This way #6 becomes #5 and so on. Put YOUR NAME in as the #6 on 
the list.

Just remember to SEND OUT YOUR six dollars!  Playing fair and being HONEST
is the ONLY way this program can be SUCCESSFUL for YOU and everyone else 
involved!!. The person who 'thinks' they can cheat and not play fair ALWAYS 
ends up gaining almost NOTHING!  It's a sad  way to learn a hard lesson!  
Don't let that be YOU! PLAYING FAIR and SENDING OUT YOUR money will bring 
VERY HAPPY RESULTS!! - from your very small INVESTMENT!! 


STEP 3

THIS is the 'theory' for the *FIVE* person version:   

You will earn $5 for every 250 postings with your name at #5.  Not a large
sum of money...but wait.  Each person that sent you a $1 bill now also
makes 250 postings with your name at #4.  That equals about $50 to you.
Then, your 50 new agents each post to 250 newsgroups with you at #3. 
That's about 12,500 postings which generates about $500 to you.  Then, your
new 500 agents make 125,000 postings with you at #2, which earns you about
$10,000.  Finally, your 500 agents post to 250 newsgroups, which translates
to 'about' $50,000 before your name drops off the list. 

 
THE NEW *SIX* person version CAN ADD another $50,000 to $90,000!!  
This sounds like "pie in the sky", BUT the numbers add up, AND with over
40 MILLION PEOPLE on the NET, it WORKS!  *TIP: For an even greater return,
post to MORE than 250 newsgroups initially; try for 300-350. (When your
name drops off a list, *IF* you wish to, simply access another message 
from a newsgroup and start the process over again.)

Post the NEW article to at LEAST 250 newsgroups! REMEMBER! - the MORE you
POST, the more people SEE, and thus the more YOU CAN receive! This ISN'T 
HARD! (see instructions/tips below) There are at least 25,000 newsgroups 
at any one time!

This NEW version is about a $13.92 INVESTMENT. Just THINK how often we have
ALL wasted MUCH MORE on Lottery tickets, junk food etc!  It takes about a
week or so to start seeing a return (BUT ONLY AFTER YOU'VE SENT YOUR MONEY 
OUT AND DONE YOUR POSTINGS!) - so be patient. THE MONEY SHOULD FLOW FOR 
ABOUT 3 MONTHS! At that point, just 'Count Your Blessings'...or, simply add 
your name to a new list and start over, *IF* you wish or have a 'need' to.


You won't BELIEVE HOW TRULY GREAT! IT FEELS to finally be able to PAY OFF!! 

all your DEBTS!! AND even have enough to be able to 'SHARE' the EXTRA...in 

any way that makes you feel GOOD about yourself - maybe with those really 

close to you, or even with someone who you may NOT know very well...but who 

you can see, really "needs" some help. BUT, dear friend.... don't forget to 

be good to YOURSELF too..because you've worked hard and DO DESERVE it!!!


****************************************
GENERAL STEPS ON AUTOMATING THE PROCESS
****************************************

*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 newsgroups 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   
'CATCHY' but NOT TOO 'FLASHY'- it can REALLY put some people OFF!!
(*Note - Using the words 'NEW:6X2'/UPDATED/*REVISED*/VERSION' 'somewhere', 
is probably a good idea!) BUT let yourself GET 'CREATIVE'!! You WANT people 
to NOTICE! - AND that THIS is *DIFFERENT FROM* the 'usual' 5 person version! 

**WARNING/TIP: (AVOID using $$$ or Money IN Subject Box!...it just 'ATTRACTS' 
all those NEGATIVE people whose ONLY 'mission in life' SEEMS to involve 
'REPORTING ON' someone else's FREE CHOICE! (Some even use 'threats' and very 
vulgar language!)..*ALSO*..it 'APPEARS' to 'trigger' automated responses 
which will DELETE your posting!!) As I mentioned above: GET CREATIVE!!!
 
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 #6,  and 
remove #1 off the list, plus any other small changes you think you need to 
make.  Keep almost all of it the SAME! (Especially all Tips/warnings, etc.)

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 HAVE 
DONE 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/Wordpad), you can 'edit' 
the file ahead of time, 'Save' it as a plain Text file and then simply
'attach' it as in Step 6.

5)  If you still have all of your text, (AND have adjusted the names) 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're going to post all 250!!. OK, click on any newsgroup.
then click on 'TO NEWS', again in the top left corner.  Leave the
NEWSGROUPS BOX alone again, Type in OR copy your 'CATCHY'/'CREATIVE' 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, put that in the
Box and click SAVE..then when the ATTACHMENT box appears, just click on OK
If you did this right, you should see YOUR FILE NAME in the Attachments 
Line/Box, back in the 'TO NEWS' panel and it will appear shaded grey/green.

***REMEMBER: IF you DON'T WANT to type in the whole article, AND you know 
how to use any plain text editor, eg. (Notepad, Wordpad, EditPad), you CAN 
'edit' the file AHEAD of time, save it, then simply 'attach' it.


***************************************************************************
(*NOTE* A 'TIP' that someone says HE learned THE HARD WAY!: "NETSCAPE USERS..
Pull Down the 'OPTIONS MENU' and hit 'MAIL and NEWS PREFERENCES'. Now, hit 
'IDENTITY' then CHANGE YOUR NAME to 'Your Choice'.Then, CHANGE YOUR E-MAIL 
ADDRESS TO SOMETHING 'BOGUS' like CASH@HOTMAIL.COM or whatever YOU WANT. 
Now, CHANGE YOUR 'REPLY TO ADDRESS' to something like CASH@USA.NET or 
whatever YOU WANT. IF YOU DO THIS...YOU WON'T RECEIVE A TON OF GARBAGE MAIL 
LIKE I HAD TO PUT UP WITH!")
****************************************************************************


*IF YOU USE IE EXLORER, IT'S JUST AS EASY*:

HOLDING 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(US) bills to.

2)  Go to the news groups and press "post an article".   A window will
open.  Type in your headline in the subject 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 200 DIFFERENT newsgroups, or
more.


****************************************************************************
You see?  Now you just have 249 to go!! (Don't worry, each one takes about
30 seconds, once you get used to it.) And try to 'stagger' the Posts so
you won't be blamed for 'Spamming'. Don't forget there are about 20,000
News Groups and about 40 million people on the Net...

         SO GOOD LUCK TO YOU, TAKE CARE...AND GOD BLESS!
****************************************************************************


REMEMBER - 250 IS THE MINIMUM! - BUT THE MORE YOU POST, THE MORE MONEY
 
YOU WILL RECEIVE!! THIS IS THE FAIREST, MOST HONEST, AND LEGAL WAY TO

'SHARE THE WEALTH', I'VE EVER COME ACROSS - DON'T PASS UP THE OPPORTUNITY!

DON'T FORGET! - FAIRNESS AND HONESTY WILL BRING SUCCESS!!.. AND THAT'S IT!! 

GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!...AND  LETS  "ENJOY"  SHARING THE WEALTH!!
