Hello! I've got some awesome news that I think you need to
take two minutes to read if you have ever thought "How could I make
some serious cash in a hurry???", or been in serious debt, ready to do
almost anything to get the money needed to pay those bill collectors.
So grab a snack, warm cup of coffee, or a glass of your favorite
beverage - get comfortable and listen to this interesting, exciting
find!
Please take a second to print this out - you will want to read it
again!
Let me start by saying that I FINALLY FOUND IT! That's right!
I found it! A I * HATE * "Get Rich Schemes"! I have tried every darn
"Get Rich" scheme out there over the past 12 years. I somehow got on
mailing lists for people looking to make money (more like 'desperate,
stupid people who will try anything for money!'). Well, when I was in
my teens, these claims to get rich sounded irresistable. I would shell
out $14.95 here, and $9.95 there, and so on, looking for the right
program to get rich quick. I tried many, many of these schemes, but not
one of them ever worked; my savings account just got smaller each time
I tried. Maybe they worked fine for some people, but not for me, and
not for my lack of effort! Eventually, I just tossed that JUNK MAIL
in the trash when I got the mail. I learned to recognize the empty
promises, like "Make $600,000 in 8 months from the comfort of your
own home". These mailers inevitably ask for too much money, and
if you ever receive a response, it is not a good one.
Earlier this year, I was scanning through a newsgroup, as I often do,
and saw an article promising that you could get rich FAST! This type
of headline will grab most people's attention, and it was only a
mouse click away, so I read the article. I thought to myself, "Here on
the Internet? I will have to see what get rich schemes could be on the
Internet, and if they are any different than all of the other tired
schemes I have been reading in my regular US mailbox."
The article described a way to MAIL A DOLLAR BILL TO ONLY FIVE PEOPLE
AND MAKE $50,000.00 IN CASH WITHIN 4 WEEKS! Well, the more I thought
about it, the more I became very curious. Why, because the program was
simple, and all I had to lose was five one dollar bills, five
envelopes,
and five stamps. That is not a big price to tap into the power of the
Internet! This is my total investment for all time, no matter how much
money I would gain from this simple program.
I wanted to learn all I could about how the program worked. $50,000 in
cash sounded like a tough amount to reach, but it was possible. A goal
of $400.00 or $500.00 seemed reachable. So...I reached into my wallet,
and took out five dollar bills with five envelopes and five stamps.
I mailed out (via US mail, NOT e-mail) a single dollar bill to each of
the fivve people on the list that was contained in the article. I
included a small note, with the dollar, that stated "Please add me to
your list". I then removed the name of the person at the top of the
list, and added my own name to the bottom of the list, moving the other
four names up "one notch". This is how the money begins to roll in!
I then took this revised article and REPOSTED IT ON AS MANY NEWSGROUPS
AND LOCAL BULLETIN BOARDS THAT I KNEW OF. I then waited to watch the
money come in - prepared to receive a few hundred dollars at the most.
At the worst, it only cost me five dollars to tap into the power of a
great program and the Internet.
What a welcome suprise when those envelopes kept coming in!!! I knew
that they were as soon as I saw the return addresses from people all
over the world - even Canada, Australia, and London. I have to admit,
this was EXCITING! It had all been so simple to start, too! So by now,
if you are still patiently reading, you are wondering how much money
did I make from "the program"? $200.00? $500.00? I received a total of
$17,983!!! I still can't get over it!!
I now have a brand new black Acura Integra to remind me that dreams do
come true, all due to sending out some envelopes. Now, after almost 8
months, I am ready to try it again! Maybe it was possible to have seen
the whole $50,000.00 in cash - maybe I just don't know of enough
bulletin boards. It depends completely on all of us, as individuals,
in terms of how much money this program can actually generate. EFFORT
is
the key word here as well as most other places in life. You must follow
through and post this article everywhere you can think of. The more
postings you achieve, the better you should do! The program is just too
easy and works too well to pass up - I am glad that I gave it a chance!
Let's discuss the SPECIFICS of the program. You do need to supply five
stamps, five envelopes, and mail a dollar bill along with a note to
five
other people, all who have believed in the program. You also need to
take the top name of the list of this letter that you are reading, and
placed your own name at the bottom of the list. Then, just simply
repost
this article to any places you want to. Sit back, relax, and do not
grow
impatient; the money is for real and it WILL come to you. Before you
say
that you don't have the time or extra $5.00 to try this program, I will
challenge you - is there not one time this week that you were thinking
about going out to eat at McDonald's or buying a lottery ticket? Give
this program a try instead - you will be much happier!
OK, OK, so now you want the step by step details? GOOD!
** THE LIST OF NAMES IS AT THE END OF THIS ARTICLE **
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Take a sheet of paper and write the following: "Please add my
name to your list". THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. By doing this, you
are creating a service provided, and this is what makes the
entire system legal in the eyes of those who are watching over us.
You are not just randomly sending a dollar to someone; you are
paying for a service: to add your name to their list. For a spiffy
trick, also write what slot their name was in, i.e. "You were in
slot #3" - just to add a bit of fun to the whole thing. You can
have fun, make money, and know that you are helping others to
make money at the same time!
2. Now fold the sheet of paper that says "Please add my name to your
list" around a dollar bill (no checks or money orders), and put
them into an envelope and send the envelope to each of the five
people listed at the end of this letter. The folding of the paper
around the dollar bill will insure its safe arrival.
3. We are coming into the home stretch, so bear with me a bit
longer... Look at the list of five people; remove the first
name from the top of the list (the first position), and move
everyone on the list up one slot. The name that was in Position 2
(second on the list) now is placed at the top of the list
(Position 1). Position 3 will now become Position 2, Position 4
will become Position 3, and Position 5 will become Position 4.
Now, place your name, street address, zip code, AND country
in Position 5 (the last name on the list).
4. Now upload this updated file to as many newsgroups and local
bulletin boards as you can. Let the program advertise itself by
saying things like "Need extra cash?" or "A proven program to
make your dreams come true" (or you might try something a bit
more modest - I get carried away sometimes).
WE CAN ALL TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER BY BEING HONEST AND BY PUTTING FORTH
110% INTO THIS PROFITABLE AND AMAZING SYSTEM!
You will reap the benefits - this has happened to many, many of us. It
all started in the same way - seeing a letter and believing enough to
send in $5.00, with no more costs ever! If you can UUE encode the file
when uploading, that will make it easier for people to receive the
information. This is better than making everyone save the file to disk
and then opening it off-line. If you are unable to UUE encode the file,
then BE SURE to create an ASCII text file using a text editor like
Notepad, WordPad, etc. You don't want to use a word processing format
that not everyone has readily availalble. If the margins look right
without making the screen slide left or right when you are at the
end of a sentence, then you are all set!
5. If you need help uploading, simply ask the sysop of the BBS, or
even another user of the system. Most people will be happy to help
you upload or download a file. I would describe the upload process
in this letter, but there are too many bulletin boards and too
many communications packages for me to explain things very clearly.
It may take a bit of reading your own software manual to do this,
but once you learn, you will always know how to send/receive files!
Place a one-line statement in the main body section of the message.
Something like "Download this to read how to receive cash for
a very small investment". Do NOT say "Get one million dollars in
your mailbox in less than a month" No one takes these ads
seriously,
and people may not even read this powerful program!
6. This is my favorite step... after you have sent out your letters
and posted your article, JUST RELAX AND THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU WILL
DO WITH A BIT OF EXTRA CASH!! You should expect to see a little
money in 2-3 weeks, but don't dismay if it takes a bit longer.
In 4-5 WEEKS, the money WILL START HITTING YOUR MAILBOX! All you
need to do is take the envelopes with the dollar bill out of the
mailbox, add each name to your ever-growing list, and try
not to scream out loud (your neighbors might be concerned!)
7. So..you can go PAY OFF YOUR DEBTS, and buy a present for your
loved one! ENJOY LIFE.... this system works because you helped
others, and then others helped you. This is the very best part
of life, and now there is SOME MONEY to make your life a little
bit better.
8. When this money supply gets low, you can re-activate this file
again. The first five people get a pleasant suprise in the mail,
and YOU WILL TOO SHORTLY AFTER YOU DO THIS - more envelopes!
Keep a copy of this file close at hand - it is a simple yet
powerful program that you will want to use again or tell your
friends
about.
9. (This step added by Charles Reily) -- no, I am not Charles, but
we are all in this together, and one person's pearls of wisdom
should always live on in a document. "Hello. This is exciting,
isn't it? While I'm still on the list, just add a note to the
envelope you send me with your name and E-MAIL ADDRESS, and
I will freely send you some neat methods to increase the amount
of money that you can receive with this program. Why? Why not?
I am not a selfish jerk..I like helping others out, and E-MAIL is
one way that I can help many people out with one short note.
After I drop off the list, I can no longer offer you advice,
obviously, but maybe someone else who had inherited my tips will
be kind enough to share them with you. Good luck. Give this program
your all - the results are stunning!
10. If you live in a country other than the USA and there is someone
on the mailing list who lives in the same country, you could post
the same value of one dollar in your country's currency.
For example, you could post francs instead of dollars.
That is the whole program! You are half-way to success, just because
you
have read the entire program. Many people don't have the patience or
desire, and end up quitting after reading a page or two. When I think
about it, nothing in life has ever been free or too easy, and this
program is NO EXCEPTION TO THE RULE. Have a bit of faith, follow these
instructions carefully, and you could have a much nicer holiday season
than you thought you would!

NOTE: Try to keep a list of everyone that sends you a dollar and always
keep an eye on the local postings of this file - just to make sure that
everyone is playing the game fairly. You know where your name should
be.
HONESTY MAKES THIS PROGRAM WORK - IT HAS IN THE PAST, AND WILL DO SO
AGAIN!
By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages with
your name included in the list WITHOUT sending your meager share of
$5.00 + envelopes + stamps, you will not receive much. I know someone
who tried this, and only got about $150.00 after six months. He decided
to send the five dollar bills to the five proper receipients, and in 4
weeks, he had received over $1000.00 himself!
