FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
How to invest $6.00 and turn it into thousands. 
If everyone justs sends $6.00 And posts to at least 200 groups, we will all 
be happy!!!!!!! Happy all the way to the BANK!!!!!!! I found this posted in 
another group and thought I'd try it just for a laugh. Guess what? I'm 
laughing the whole way to the bank. I already earned $2,500 in almost 3 
weeks! Following is that original post. Take a minute to read it. I'm 
telling you--I'm a very skeptical, but even a skeptic likes to make money. 
And the initial investment is insignificant....LESS THAN $8.00!!!


Awhile 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 plus stamps! 
So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam!" But like most of us I was 
curious and kept reading. It said that if you send $1.00 to each of the 6 
names and addresses listed 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 32,000 of them out there and that's quite a large market 
pool). No catch, that was it. Even though the investment was a measly $6, I 
had three questions that needed to be answered before I could get involved 
in this sort of thing.

1. IS THIS REALLY LEGAL?? I called a lawyer first. The lawyer was a little 
sceptical that I would actually make any money but he said it WAS LEGAL if I 
wanted to try it. I told him it sounded a lot like a chain letter but the 
details of the system (SEE BELOW) actually made it a legitimate legal 
business.

2. IS OK WITH THE POST OFFICE OR IS IT MAIL FRAUD?....I called them: 
1-800-725-2161 and they confirmed THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! (See Title18, h 
sections1302 NS 1341 of Postal Lottery Laws). This clarifies the program of 
collecting names and addresses for a mailing list.

3. IS IT MORAL? Well, everyone who sends me a buck has a good chance of 
getting A LOT of money ... a much better chance than buying a lottery 
ticket!!!

So, having these questions answered, I invested EXACTLY $8.04 ... six $1.00 
bills and six 34 cent postage stamps ... and boy am I glad I did!!! Within 7 
days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would 
end soon and didn't give it another thought. But the money continued coming 
in. In my first week I made between $20 to $30. By the end of the second 
week I had a made a total of $1,000.00. In the third week I had over 
$10,000.00 and it was still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have 
made a total of just over $42,000 and it's still coming in .....

It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 stamps !!! Also, make sure you print a copy 
of this article NOW, so you can get the information off of it as you need 
it. I promise you that if you follow the directions exactly, that you will 
start making more money than you thought possible by doing something so 
easy! Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (print it out or 
download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in! It's 
easy. It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus postage)

IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal; and 
it is virtually no risk - it really works!!!! If all of the following 
instructions are adhered to, you will receive extraordinary dividends. 
PLEASE NOTE: Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can 
be yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful because of the 
honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue its success by 
carefully adhering to the instructions. You will now become part of the Mail 
Order business. In this business your product is not solid and tangible, 
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 me asking to be included in that list.

HERE ARE 4 EASY STEPS TO SUCCESS: --------------------------------- 
STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece 
of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 6 US $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 thievery). Next, 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, 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! 
Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the 
legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office 
(1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal!

Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:

#1) P. Brazil 508 11th. St. NW. Apt. G Puyallup, WA. 98371 
#2) Jose Aviles P. O. Box 446, Fort Drum, NY 13603 
#3) M. Collins 43 W. hopkins Pontiac,MI 48340 
#4) J. Houston 5504 Park Circle East, West Palm Beach, FL 33405 
#5) K. Haas 233 18th Place Manhattan Beach, CA 90266 
#6) Sean Collins 9815 Donovan CT SE Yelm, WA 98597

STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other 
names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR Name as number 6 on 
the list.

STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close 
to original as possible.

STEP 4: Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. (I think 
there are close to 32,000 groups) All you need is 200, but remember, the 
more you post, the more money you make!

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 a person of integrity, the 
program will continue and the money that so many others have received will 
come your way.

NOTE: You may want 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, six 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 $6.00 
($1.00 for each of the first six people listed above) Send it now, add your 
own name to the list and you're in business!

DIRECTIONS --- FOR HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS --- DIRECTIONS --- 
=================================================================== 
Step 1) You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own 
posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this letter and drag 
your cursor to the bottom of this document, and select 'copy' from the edit 
menu. This will copy the entire letter into the computer's memory.

Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your cursor at the top of the 
blank page. From the 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will paste a copy of 
the letter into notepad so that you can add your name to the list.

Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you want to do your 
postings in different settings, you'll always have this file to go back to.

Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and try searching for various 
newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.)

Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new message by 
highlighting the text of this letter and selecting paste from the edit menu. 
Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that everyone sees as they 
scroll through the list of postings in a particular group, click the post 
message button. You're done with your first one!

Congratulations...THAT'S IT! All you have to do is jump to different 
newsgroups and post away, after you get the hang of it, it will take about 
30 seconds for each newsgroup! **REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, 
THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE!! BUT 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 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 at #5 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 #4 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 #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an additional 
$626.00! OK, now here is 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 persons will all deliver this 
message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 
newsgroups react I will receive $15,625,00! With an original investment of 
only $6.00! AMAZING!

When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting in 
the newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to names on the list, putting 
your name at number 6 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 $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 of that happening 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 users, every day, with thousands of those joining the 
actual internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will really 
work.

** By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages with 
your name in the list and not sending the money to the rest of the people 
already 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 6 $1.00 bills, people added him to their 
lists, 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 also may want to 
buy mailing and e-mail lists for future dollars. Make sure you print this 
article 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 everyone is 
playing fairly. Remember, HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. You don't need to 
cheat the basic idea to make the money!! GOOD LUCK to all and please play 
fairly and reap the huge rewards from this, which is tons of extra CASH. 
Please remember to declare your extra income. Thanks once again...

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? That's up 
to you." 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 your 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 at #6) and start posting again. 
=======================================================================

NOTES: * 1. In some countries, the export of the country's 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 
may have to pay an extra tax, but that's OK, 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're 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 will start 
getting responses within 1-2 weeks, it depends. 
________________________________________________________________________ 
***ALSO REMEMBER*** SEND YOUR $1 OUT TO EVERYONE ON THE LIST, EVEN IF THEY 
ARE NOT FROM THE U.S. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? GOOD 
LUCK!!! --------------------------------------------------------------------

Give It a try. ***Invest*** It's not a big loss
