Not a big chance, I admit--but one with incredible potential, because $5 is all anyone ever invests in this system. Period. That's all Markus, Dave, or Dan invested, yet their $5 netted them tens of thousands of dollars each, in a safe, legal, completely legitimate way. Here's how it works in 3 easy steps:
>>
>>STEP 1.
>>
>>Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on five seperate
>>pieces of paper along with the words: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST."
>>(In this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone; you're paying
>>for a legitimate service.) Fold a $1 bill inside each paper, and mail them by standard U. S. Mail to the following five addresses:
>> 
>> 1-Aaron McDaniel
>>     2014 Powell Dr.
>>     ElCajon, Ca 92020 
>>
>> 2-Faroon Khan
>>     12343 77A Avenue
>>     Surrey, BC V3W2W9
>>
>> 3-Hoffman Eric
>>     3150 Riviere-Cachee
>>     Boisbriand, PQ
>>     Canada
>>     J7H 1A3
>>
>> 4-Stuart Koch  
>>     Connolly Hall Box C115
>>     501 E. St. Joseph
>>     Rapid City, SD 57701-3995
>>
>> 5-Karen Lundgren
>>     3889 Kencrest Ave.
>>     Halifax, NS
>>     Canada
>>     B3K 3L4
>>
>>STEP 2.
>>
>>    Now remove the top name from the list, and move the
>>    other names up.This way, #5 becomes #4 and so on.
>>    Put your name in as the fifth one on the list.
>>
>>
>>STEP 3.
>>
>>    Post the article to at least 250 newsgroups. There are at
>>    least 19000 newsgroups at any given moment in time.
>>    Try posting to as many newsgroups as you can. Remember
>>    the more groups you post to, the more people will see your
>>    article and send you cash!
>>
>>
>>STEP 4.
>>
>>    You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing
>>    returns within 7 to 14 days! Remember, the Internet is new
>>    and huge. There is no way you can lose.
>> 
>>    Now here is how and why this system works:
>> 
>>    Out of every block of 250 posts I made, I got back 5 responses.
>>    Yes, thats right,only 5. You make $5.00 in cash, not checks or
>>    money orders, but real cash with your name at #5.
>> 
>>    Each additional person who sent you $1.00 now also makes 250
>>    additional postings with your name at #4, 1000 postings. On
>>    average then, 50 people will send you $1.00 with your name at
>>    #4,....$50.00 in your pocket!
>> 
>>    Now these 50 new people will make 250 postings each with your
>>    name at #3 or 10,000 postings. Average return, 500 people= $500.
>>    They make 250 postings each with your name at #2= 100,000
>>    postings=5000 returns at $1.00 each=$5,000.00 in cash!
>> 
>>    Finally, 5,000 people make 250 postings each with your name at
>>    #1 and you get a return of $60,000 before your name drops off
>>    the list.And that's only if everyone down the line makes only 250
>>    postings each! Your total income for this one cycle is $55,000.
>> 
>>    From time to time when you see your name is no longer on the list,
>>    you take the latest posting you can find and start all over again.
>>
>>                The end result depends on you. You must follow through
>>                and repost this article everywhere you can think of.
>>                The more  postings you  make, the more cash ends up in
>>                your mailbox. It's too easy and too cheap to pass up!!!
>>
>>    So thats it. Pretty simple sounding stuff, huh? But believe me, it
>>    works. There are millions of people surfing the net every day, all
>>    day, all over the world. And 100,000 new people get on the net
>>    every day. You know that, you've seen the stories in the paper.
>>    So, my friend, read and follow the simple instructions and play
>>    fair. Thats the key, and thats all there is to it. Print this out
>>    right now so you can refer back to this article easily. Try to keep
>>    an eye on all the postings you made to make sure everyone is
>>    playing fairly. You know where your name should be.
>>
>>    If you're really not sure or still think this can't be
>>    for real, then don't do it. But please print this article and pass
>>    it along to someone you know who really needs the bucks, and see
>>    what happens.
>>
>>    REMEMBER....HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.YOU DON'T
>>    NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE THE BUCKS!
>>    GOOD LUCK TO ALL, AND PLEASE PLAY FAIR AND YOU WILL

>>*** By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages

>>already included, you will not get much. I know someone who did this
>>and only got about $150 (and that's after two months). Then he sent

I think you guys are just wasting your time for nothing. I've heard so many
times about such "easy ways to earn money" but I don't think any of them
work. Besides, you don't have to put it all over the place, I saw and read it
THE FIRST TIME I SAW IT.
