Deuteronomy 28:13
And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt
be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath if that thou hearken unto
the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to
observe them and to do them.

PLEASE READ ENTIRE DOCUMENT BEFORE MAKING FINAL DECISION.
Waiting For Your Ship To Come In?
This is simple, safe, and it really works! For $6 (U.S.), 6 stamps, and
about an hour of your time, you could earn a years salary in a month.
Sounds too good to be true, but just imagine. WHAT IF??

A little while back, I was browsing these 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. Like most of us I kept reading.

 Anyway, it said that if you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and
addresses stated in the article you could make thousands in a very short

period of time. You then place your own name and address at the bottom
of the list at
#6, and post the article to at least 200 newsgroups. (There are about
20,000.) or e-mail them to friends, or e-mailing lists. No catch, that
was it.

1. IS THIS REALLY LEGAL?
If you wish, you can call a lawyer for yourself to see if this is
legal.  The lawyer might be a
little skeptical that you would actually make any money but he will tell
you IT IS LEGAL if you wanted to try it.
2. Would the Post Office be okay with this?
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! (See Title 18.h sections 1302 NS of Postal
Lottery Laws).  This clarifies the process of collecting names and
addresses for a mailing list.
3. Is this moral?
Well, everyone who sends me a buck has a good chance of getting A LOT of
money at a
much better chance than buying a lottery ticket!

So, having these questions answered, I invested EXACTLY $7.92 and six
$1.00 bills and six
32 cent postage stamps and boy am I glad I did! Within 7 days, I started
getting money in the mail! It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 stamps! It
took me all of 5 minutes to print this out, follow the directions,
and begin posting to newsgroups. It took me a mere 45 minutes to post to
over 200 newsgroups.
And for this GRAND TOTAL investment of $7.92 (U.S.) and under ONE HOUR
of my time, I
have reaped an incredible amount of money. Let me tell you how this
works, and more importantly, why it works. Also, make sure you print a
copy of this article now, so you can get the information off of it when
you need it.  The process is very simple and consists of THREE easy
steps.

============== HOW IT WORKS ==============
STEP 1
Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of
paper:

PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST. $1 US DOLLAR PROCESSING FEE IS
ENCLOSED

(THIS IS KEY AS THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT LEGAL SINCE YOU ARE PAYING FOR AND

LATER OFFERING A SERVICE)

Now get 6 $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
theft/robbery.  Then 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 and a U.S. $1,00 bill.

Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:

#1 - AHR
10689 NW 48th Street
Coral Springs, Florida 33076
USA

#2 - Peter Bliss
1102 So Monroe St
Tacoma, WA 98405
USA

#3 - D Berks
18 1/2 A. Cincinnati Ave.
Saint Augustine, FL 32084
USA

#4 - K Burks
209 S Golfwood Dr
Pueblo West, CO 81007
USA


#5- S. Akins
P.O. Box 4703
Asheboro, NC 27204
USA

#6  G.M.R.M.
P.O. Box 84, 355 Henderson Hwy.
Winnipeg, MB, R2L 1M0
Canada

STEP 2:
Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the
othernames up (6 becomes
5, 5 becomes 4, etc�) and add YOUR name as number 6 on the list. (If you
want to remain
anonymous put a nickname or initials, but the address MUST be correct.
Of course it must
contain your country, state/district/area, zip code etc! You wouldn't
want your money to fly
away would you?

STEP 3:
Now post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. Remember that
200 postings are
just a guideline. The more you post the more money you make! Don't know
HOW to post in the news groups? Well do exactly the following:

HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS WITH YOUR WEB BROWSWER:
The fastest way to post a newsletter is to HIGHLIGHT and COPY (Ctrl + C)

the text of the posted message and PASTE (Ctrl+V) it into a plain text
editor (as
Wordpad) and save it.  After you have made the necessary changes that
are stated above, simply
COPY (Ctrl+C) and PASTE (Ctrl+V) the text into the message composition
window, after
selecting a newsgroup, and post it! (Or you can attach the file without
writing anything to the message
window)

If you have Netscape Navigator 3.0 do the following:

1. Click on any newsgroup like normal, the click on 'TO NEWS'. This will
bring up a box to type a message in.

2. Leave the newsgroup box like it is, changing the subject box to
something flashy,
something to catch the eye, as $$$ NEED CASH $$$? READ HERE!$ !$ -OR-
$$$ MAKE FAST CASH, YOU CAN'T LOSE$$$. Or you can use my subject title

3. Now click on 'ATTACHMENTS'. Then click on 'ATTACH FILE'. Find your
file on your
Hard Disk (the one that you saved from the text editor). Once you find
it. Click on it then
click 'OPEN' and 'OK'. You should now see your file name in the
attachments box.

4. Now click on 'SEND'/ 'POST'. You see? Now you just have 199 to go!
(Don't worry, its
easy and quick once you get used to it.) NOTE: All the versions of
Netscape Navigator are
similar to each other, so you'll have no problem to do this if you don't
have Netscape
Navigator 3.0

QUICK TIP (For Netscape Navigator 3.0 and above)

You can post this message to many newsgroups at a time, by simply
selecting a newsgroup
near the top of the screen, hold down the SHIFT, and then select a
newsgroup at the
bottom of the screen. All of the newsgroups in between will be
selected.  After that you
follow/do the basic steps, stated below at this letter, except step #1.
You can go to the page
stated below in this letter and click on a newsgroup to open up the
newsgroups window.
Once you've done this, in the same window as 'OPTIONS', and then mark
'SHOW ALL
NEWSGROUPS' and 'SHOW ALL MESSAGES'. Now you can see all the newsgroups
and you can more easily apply the above tip. If you have MS Internet
Explorer

1. Go to the newsgroups and press 'POST AND ARTICLE'. To the new window
type your
headline in the subject area then click in the large window below. There
either PASTE your
letter (which has been copied from the text editor), or attach the file
which contains it.

2. Then click on 'SEND' or 'OK'. NOTE: All versions of MS Internet
Explorer are similar to
each other, so you won't have any problem doing this.

GENERAL NOTES ON POSTING:

A nice page where you'll find all the newsgroups if you want help is
http://www.liszt.com/
(When you go to the home page, click on the link 'Newsgroup Directory').
But I don't think
that you'll have any problems posting because its very easy once you've
found the
newsgroups. All these web browsers are similar. It doesn't matter which
one you have. (But
it makes it very easy if you have Netscape Navigator 3.0 or later. You
may download it from
the internet if you don't have it) You just have to remember the basic
steps, stated below

BASIC STEPS FOR POSTING:

1. Find a newsgroup and click on it.

2. Click on 'POST AN NEW ARTICLE' or 'TO NEWS' or anything else similar
to these

3. You type your flashy headline in the subject box

4. Now, either you attach the file containing your amended letter, or
you PASTE the letter.
(You have to COPY from the text editor, or course)

5. Finally, you click on 'SEND' or 'POST' or 'OK' whatever is there.

**REMEMBER , THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU
WILL MAKE! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST TO A MINIMUM OF 200**

That's it! You will begin receving money form around the world within
days! You may eventually want to rent a P.O. Box due to the large amount
of mail you
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 part: ===============

Out of 200 postings; say I receive only 5 replies (a very low example).
So then I made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the
5 persons who just
sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my name #5, and
only 5 people
respond to each of the original 5, that's another $25.00 for me, now
those 25 each make the
200 MINIMUM with my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will
make an additional
$626.00! Okay, now here's 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 will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my name
at #1 and if still
only 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive $15,625.00!

With any original investment of only $6.00! AMAZING! As I said 5
responses is actually
VERY LOW! Average response is about 20 to 30% So let's put those figures

at just 15 responses per 200 postings. Here is what you will make:

At # 6 $15.00
At #5 $225.00
At #4 $3,375.00
At #3 $50,625.00
At #2 $759,375.00
At #1 $11,390,625.00

When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest
posting in the newsgroup,
and send out another $6.00 to the names on the list, putting your name
at number 6 again.
And start posting again. The thing to remember is, do you realize
thatthousands 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 if that
happening when there are tons of new honest users and new honest people
joining the
internet and newsgroups daily and are willing to give it a try?
Estimates are at 20,000 to
50,000 new users, everyday, with thousands of those joining the actual
Internet. Remember,
play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will work. You just have to be honest.

By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the message with
your name on the list
and not sending the money to the rest of the people on the list, you
will NOT get as much.
Someone I talked to knew someone who did that and he only made about
$150.00, and that's
after seven or eight weeks! Then he sent the six $1.00 bills, people
added him to their list
and in 4-5 weeks he had over $10k. This is the fairest and most honest
way I have ever seen
to share the wealth of the world, without costing anything but our
time!  You may also want
to buy mailing and e-mail list for future dollars. Make sure that you
print this letter out
RIGHT NOW, also try to keep a list of everyone that sends you money and
always keep
an eye on the newsgroups to make sure that everyone is playing fairly.
Remember that
HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY! You don't need to cheat the basic idea is to
make the
money!

LEGAL??? (Comments from Bob Novak who started this new version.)

"People have asked me if this is really legal. Well 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 business and
methods of generating income at home. Remember people send you a small
fee to be added to your
mailing list. It is legal. What will you do with your list of thousands
of names?

Compile all of them into a database and sell them as "Mailing Lists" on
the internet in a similar manner, if you wish , and make more money. How
do you think you
get all the junk mail that you do? Credit card companies, mail order,
utilities, anyone you deal with through the mail can sell you name and
address on a mailing list, unless you ask them not to, in
addition to there regular business. So, why not do the same with the
list you collect. You
can find out more information about "Mailing Lists" on the internet
using any search
engine.

"So, build your mailing list, keep good accounts, declare the income and

pay your taxes. By doing this you prove your business intentions. Keep
an eye on the
newsgroups and when the cash has stopped coming (that means you name is
no longer on
the list), you just take the latest posting at the newsgroups, send
another $6.00 to the
names stated on the list, make your corrections (put your name #6) and
start posting again.

NOTES:
*1. In some countries, the export of the countries exchange is illegal.
But you can get the
license to do this from the post office, explaining the above statements
(that you have an
online business etc.) You have to pay an extra tax, but that's okay, the
amount of the
incoming money is HUGE! And as I said, a few countries have that
restriction.

*2. You may want to buy mailing and e-mail lists for future dollars (Or
database or spreadsheet software)

*3. If you are really not sure or still think this can't be for real,
please print a copy of this article and pass it along to someone who
really needs the money, and see what happens.

*4. You should start getting responses within 1-2 weeks

NOTE: Pleas feel free to copy this entire page to post your messages.
