> :-----------------------------------------------------
> : How it Works:
> : -------------
> : YOU WILL NOW BECOME PART OF THE MAIL ORDER BUSINESS. In this business
> : your product is not solid or tangible; instead, 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 I asking to be included in that list.
> : Here are the 4 easy steps to success:
> :
> :____________________________________
> :������������������������������������
> : STEP 1: Get 7 separate pieces of paper and write the following on
> : each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now
> : get 7 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 7 pieces of
> : paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope (to prevent
> : thievery). Next, place one paper in each of the 7 envelopes and seal
> : them. You should now have 7 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 is creating a service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY
> : LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate service and you are paying for
> : it! Mail the 7 envelopes to the following addresses:
>
> : #1) Keller Mails
> :     525 W. Main St.
> :     Arcade, N.Y. 14009
> :
> : #2) E. Haynes Mailing Service
> :     3629 Edgar St.
> :     Hannibal, MO 63401
> :
> : #3) M. Molina Services
> :     807 Siesta Loop
> :     Robstown, TX 78380
> :
> : #4) M. Wagster Lists
> :     76 Star Circle
> :     Dyersburg, TN 38024
> :
> : #5) C. C. Inc.
> :     16755 Ella Blvd. #141
> :     Houston, TX 77090
> :
> : #6) Todd's Mailing Services
> :     3620 Harwood Court
> :     Bedford, TX 76021
> :
> : #7) Ash Mail Lists
> :     c/o K. Rogers
> :     10822 Lago Forest Drive
> :     Humble, TX, USA 77346
> :____________________________________
> :������������������������������������
> : STEP 2: Now take the #1 name/"Company Name" off the list that you see
> : above, and move
> : the other names up (7 becomes 6, 6 becomes 5, etc...).  Come up with
> : a name for
> : your new "Mail Order business company" and add YOUR Name/"Company
> : Name" as
> : number 7 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.
> : 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
> : honesty and integrity of the participants and by their carefully
> : adhering to the directions. Look at it this way. If you are of
> : integrity, the program will continue and the money that so many
> : others have received will come your way.
> :____________________________________
> :������������������������������������
> : STEP 4: You need to retain 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 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk
> : of mail theft.)
> : So, as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed,
> : 7 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 $7.00 ($1.00 for each of the first 7 people listed above) Send
> : it now, add your own name to the list and you're in business!

> If you're STILL worried about this being legal BE SURE to do exactly WHAT
> THESE INSTRUCTION SAY and you will have NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT!  Here's
Why!
> It would be illegal to simply solicit money through the U.S.Mail for no
> reason.  BUT! if there is a product...or a SERVICE for that money, then it
> is completely legal.  The service that you are providing for these people
> who send you money is to ADD their name to a mailing list that you keep in
> order to prove your intentions should the need arise.  Also, you MUST send
> the $1.00 to the SEVEN PEOPLE LISTED OR YOU COULD HAVE PROBLEMS LEGALLY!
> Sending these 7 dollars out covers you legally, and you will then have
> nothing to worry about.  Also I must inform you that this income is
taxable,
> so legally you must claim it on your income tax return. (...not that the
> government has ANY idea that you've got it, so that's up to you.)
>
>
> : Now, the WHY IT WORKS Part:
> : ---------------------------
> : Out Of 200 Postings, let's say I only receive 5 replies. That in
> : itself is a VERY low example because even if only 20 people read my
> : posting in each newsgroup that's STILL 4,000 people reading my Post!
> : And to say that only 5 out of every 4,000 people will actually take
> : part in this opportunity is being quite modest!  But just for the
> : math, let's say I only get 5 hits.  So then I made $5.00 with my
> : name at #7 on the letter.
> :
> : Now each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200
> : postings, each with my name at #6 and only 5 persons respond to each
> : of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each
> : make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #5 and only 5 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 #4 and only receive 5
> : replies each, I will make an additional $625.00! OK, now here is the
> : fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with
> : my name at #3 and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made me
> : $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200
> : newsgroups with my name at #2 and if still 5 persons per 200
> : newsgroups react I will receive $15,625,00! Don't forget, I've STILL
> : GOT THREE MORE ROUNDS AS THE #3, #2, and #1 NAME ON THE LIST!  Do the :
> MATH!  All this
> : with an original investment of only $7.00! AMAZING! When your name is
> : no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting in the
> : newsgroups, and send out another $7.00 to names on the list, putting
> : your name at number 7 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 $7.00 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! You'll be out only $7.00!! And what
> : are the chances of that happening anyway 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

> : Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new

> : YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200** That's it! You will begin receiving
> : money from around the world within days! You may eventually want to
> : rent a P.O.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
