PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE MESSAGE:
FACT: Bad things go away.
PROOF: 8 track tapes, Acne
FACT: Good things stay with us.
PROOF: Computers, Cars, Elvis
The above concept explains in the simplest terms why the concept of creating
mailing lists is still with us. It works.
It is good for the people who participate.
NOTE: Your address has been removed from this email list. If you wish to
receive future mailings, please include your Internet email address
and state that you would like to be put back on this list when
responding to #10 on the list below.
THINK ABOUT IT: (I mean really think about it.)
1. People keep participating. This alone means that it works. If no one
ever made money, the posts would stop. They haven't.
2. It makes mathematical sense. I only wish, I would have thought about it
earlier, as I have seen countless posts and could already be rich if I
just bought into the "something for nothing" premise that this system
entails.
A recent study of clasical economics has changed my mind.
I learned that all economic systems are based on trust. This system is no
different. If people trust the system, it will work. All that is needed
is for people to THINK ABOUT IT. (like I did and put my money where my
mouth is.)
Besides, it's only 5 dollars. You probably blow 5 bucks everytime you go
out and you never miss it then right?
+++++++++INSTRUCTIONS+++++++++
Follow these instructions EXACTLY, then around about 20 to 60 days you
should be receiving dollars IN CASH.
[1] Immediately mail $1.00 to the first 5 names listed below:
starting at number 1 through number 5. SEND CASH ONLY.
(Total investment: $5.00+postage)
ENCLOSE A LETTER WITH A NOTE SAYING:
"Please add my name to your mailing list".
include your name and mailing address.
(you are therefore buying the right to be added to their mailing list.
This is a legitimate and valuable serivce that you are requesting and you
are paying $1.00 for this service. Being on mailing lists is the best way
to stay current on emerging technologies, new business opportunities,
etc., without having to do anything for the info. It comes to you.)
Make sure your name and address are legible, Otherwise, it is not
possible to add your information to the lists.
Also, fold the note around the dollar. There is no need to fold the dollar
itself. This is to that the cash is not visible to people who might steal
it in the mail.
[2] Rewrite, reformat, modify this letters' TEXT content any way you wish.
-------------------------------------
DO NOT MESS UP THE LIST !!!
DO THE FOLLOWING TO THE LIST:
Remove the name that appears as number 1 on the list. Move the other 9 names
up one position (Number 2 becomes number 1, number 3 becomes number 2 and
so on). Place your name, address and zip code in the number 10 position.
[3] With your name in the number 10 position, upload this ENTIRE FILE
------------------------------------
to 15 (fifteen)different bulletin boards, newsgroups, e-mail. etc... Use
your creativity in this area. The idea is to get as many people as
possible to read it.
You may post it to the BBS's message base or to the
file section. Name it TO_LEGIT.TXT, for example and use the file description
comments to draw attention to this file and its' great potential for all
of us.
+
+++++WARNING+++++ Be prudent with your postings to avoid being flamed!
[4] Check your mailbox daily.
------------------------
Within 60 days you will potentially receive an accumlative sum of CASH.
Keep a copy of this file for yourself so that you can use it again. As
soon as you mail out these letters you are automatically in the mail
order business.
People should be sending YOU $1.00 to be placed on your mailing list.
This list can then be rented to a broker that can be found in your local
yellow pages listings for additional income on a regular basis.
The list will become more valuable as it grows in size.
This is a service. ++ IT IS PERFECTLY LEGAL ++
If you have any doubts as to the legality of this service, please refer
to Title 18.h sections 1302 and 1341 of the Postal Lottery Laws.
NOTE: Make sure that you retain EVERY name and address sent to you eith
on computer or hard copy but do not discard the names and notes that
people send to you.
This is PROOF that you are truly providing a service.
Remember, as each post is downloaded and the instructions carefully
followed, five members will be reimbursed for their participation as List
Developer with $1.00 each.
Your name will move up the list geometrically
so that when your name reaches the number 5 position you will be
receiving thousands of dollars in cash.
Remember! THE MORE TIMES YOU POST, THE MORE MONEY YOU COULD MAKE!!!
***REMEMBER - THIS PROGRAM WILL ONLY WORK IF YOU ARE HONEST AND SEND MONEY!!!***
PLEASE!! PLEASE BE HONEST!!!
ITS ONLY FIVE BUCKS ANYWAY!

P.S. We monitor the net and keep track of people who cheat. You do not
want to get onto that list.
Well, in any case, we hope that you follow through with all the instructions
in this letter in order to keep this thing going. If you do you may
expect to start getting mail from your first clients in roughly three weeks.
I hope you the best and that you can benefit from this, just like
numerous others from coast to coast and all over the world.
----------------------------------------
The following letters were written by participating members in this
program.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
To those with the COMMON sense to participate in this revenue generating
opportunity:
About six months ago, I received the enclosed post in letter form. I
ignored it. I received about five more of the same letter within the next
two weeks. I ignored them also. Of course, I was tempted to follow
through and dreamed of making thousands but I was convinced it was just
another gimmick and could not possibly work.
I was wrong! About three weeks later I saw this same letter posted on a
local bulletin board in Montreal. I liked the idea of giving it a try
wirh my computer. I didn't expect much because I figured, If other people
were as skeptical as I, they would not be too quick to part with $5.00.
But, I BUY LOTTERY TICKETS WEEKLY IN MY PROVINCE AND HAVE NOTHING TOO
SHOW FOR IT BUT TICKET STUBS! This week I decided to look at this as my
weekly lottery purchase. I addressed the envelopes and mailed out $1.00
in each as directed.
Two weeks went by and I didn't receive anything in the mail. The fourth
week rolled around and I couldn't believe what happened! I can not say
that I received $50,000.00 but it was definitely well over $3500.00! For
the first time in 10 years I got out of debt. It was great. Of course, it
didn't take me long to go through my earnings, so I am using this
excellent money making opportunity once again. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
AND GET READY TO ENJOY! Please send a copy of this letter along with the
enclosed letter so together we can convince people who are skeptical that
this really does work!
The Best,
Charles Kust
Additional notes:
This system works equally well if mailed out manually. Mind you it takes
more effort to hand address the envelopes and the cost goes up
proportionately to cover the postage and envelopes. You must also photo
copy the instructions, cross out the name in number one position, write
in your name in the number ten slot and change the rest of the numbers
accordingly. (It might be neater to use white out or paste over the
names.) in order to achieve the same results you must send out the $1.00
to the first five names and ten send out another 100 letters with copies
of the program enclosed.
It has been suggested not to put a return address on the outside of the
envelope in order to encourage the recipient to open it. The return will
approximate that then received from the posts listed on the bullentin boards.

Hello, My name is Steven Green. As you may have noticed I'm the tenth
name on this list, so I do not have a rags-to-riches story to tell yet.
However, I did make a phone call to the 2nd name on this list, Ernest
Loveday. Did he hvae a rags to riches story to tell? Not exactly, but
then I found out that he did not follow the instructions precisely. You
see, EL, lost faith in the program before he had finished following
instructions. He only uploaded this file on one BBS, which happens to be
operated by Darryl McGinnis, the 3rd name on this list . Ernest told me
that he has received $92.00 to date (01/06/90). I realize this is far
from the "rags to riches", dream we have, yet one must keep two things
in mind:
1. $92.00 is almost 10 times his initial investment and it only took
about an hour of his time (there's nothing to lose).
2. This program works mathematically on an exponential scale. In other
words, for every one BBS, that this file is uploaded onto. it should
spread to at least ten other BBSs he should have at least gotten a
hundred-fold of what he has, which would be $9200.00. Not bad for a few
hours work and a $6.60 investment (including postage).
--------------------------------------
++++++ HONESTY++++++
Finally, I would like to exhort those who become involved in this program
to maintain its integrity by being honest. It is the only way that it can
possibly pay off. Inother words, be sure to enter yur name at the bottom
of the list and not in one of the top five positions (actually this would
be ROBBING YOURSELF since it is while yourname is in the lower positions
that it gets multiplied exponentially.
Of course, send your $1.00 off to the first five names. As I write this I
have not made a penny (that's because I have not uploaded this yet) but
I thhought you might like to hear from someone at the bottom of the list,
instead of someone claiming rags-to riches. I hope such is true. and I'm
sure it will be if we all stick with it. The potential is definitely here!
P.S. Call me if you get rich.

Hi! all, I will not say my name, as I wish to remain anonimous but I have
something to say, IT WORKS. I am THE most sceptical person on the face of
the earth. I saw this and said, "BS..., NO WAY...impossible",then my
friend told me he did it... he said he made about 50 bucks.. I said no
way.. he proved it to me.. I decided, what the hell... I sent out my 5
bucks and sent this thing to about 400 people, not to BBS's just E-mail.
3 weeks went by I finally got one dolar in the mail. It has been about 3
months since that day, I got my first dollar and now every day when I go
to get my mail there are about 3 dollar bills in my box waiting for me. I
have made almost 300 dollars. I dunno about that guy and his 50 thous.,
but if someone offered you 300 dollars for FREE would you take it? Do
this guys...it WORKS!!!.ZGPA

Hello. I am at #10 now, T. Smith, (1/96) I have been racking my brain
trying to figure how to save money for my infant son's education.
Hopefully my involvement here will help. Every dollar that comes into my
mail box will be placed in trust for my son's education. Please
participate. It's only 5 bucks out of your pocket now. So give up that
burger on the chance that you will eat filet mignon later.

Hello,
I have seen many times this kind of letter on the net. I decide to give
it a try. The reason is that since 1983, I catched the Hepatitis C virus
during a teeth operation in France, I don't know what the issue of my
illness will be but I already know that it has partially stopped my life
since this time. Hope it will work and hope everyone will keep HONEST.
We are all shearing money in this program, keep doing it that way and it
will work.

Hi there, Now I am in the #10 spot and I hape this works. But if it
doesn't I am only out five bucks. Why not give it a shot? It makes sense
and obviously the only way it would work is if everybody is honest.Good
luck.
