It took me only a couple of hours.Am I glad I had an open mind a
few days ago!

So, like, are you sitting at home, surfin' the Net, wishing you had the
money to do the things you want to do? Here's an answer -- if your mind
is open enough, you can have FUN and make MONEY at the same time!

When I first read this I didn't even ask anyone because I was afraid
of being ridiculed. But after actually reading this instead of just
dismissing it out of hand, I realized that it can work as advertised.
(And the procedure is simple enough.)  I figured, no one will miss
the $5 -- let's try it! I rented a mail drop box so no one would know
I was doing this. Well, it paid for itself in one week, tripled in two
weeks and the returns are only JUST STARTING.

This is not a chain letter. You are selling a mailing list. (For
Conversation with Unknown Skeptic go to the bottom of this letter)
But I'll get right to the good part for those who want to start NOW!
Read this carefully. Get a printout of this information for reference.


INSTRUCTIONS:

1.  Take a sheet of paper and write on it the following: "Please add
my name to your list".  This creates a service out of this money
making system, thus making it completely legal. You are not just
randomly sending a dollar to someone, you are paying one dollar
for a legitimate service, a service that has an objective to compile a
large mailing list of potential customers for other companies
(something that marketing companies pay top dollar for).  Make
sure you include your name and address.

2.  Now simply fold this sheet of paper around a ONE DOLLAR
BILL, put it into an envelope and mail it to each of the five people
on the list below (total = $5 + stamps).  The folding of the paper
around the bill will insure its arrival to its recipient. THIS STEP IS
IMPORTANT!!

************

1. Jeff Katz, 7 Seir Hill Rd, #41, Norwalk, CT 06850
2. Eric Johnson 14817 Holden Circle, Horizon TX, 79927
3. Josh King 12 Kingsland Ave., Mansfield ONT CANADA L0N
1M0
4. Betsy Smith, 215 South Broadway # 103, Salem, NH 03079
5. Domenico S. BLVD. Rodriguez 181-202 Hermosillo, Sonora 83005 MEXICO

3.  Now add your name to the list. This is how YOU become a
recipient of those dollar bills. Put your name in at position 5, delete
the first name from position 1 and move everyone else up slot one
on the list.  The former position 5 moves up to 4, 4 To 3, 3 to 2 etc.
Don't forget
your complete address, zipcode AND COUNTRY in position 5,
the bottom position on the list.

4.  Now upload this updated file to as many newsgroups and local
bulletin boards' message areas & file section as possible.  Give a
catchy description of the file so it gets noticed!!  Try to personalize
the Subject: line to attract readers from that particular message area.
And the more uploads, the more money you will make, and of
course, the more money the others on the list will make too. Set a
goal for the number of total uploads you'll post, such as 200 postings
or more!

5.  And this is the step I like.  JUST SIT BACK AND ENJOY
LIFE BECAUSE CASH IS ON THE WAY!!  Expect to see a little
money start to trickle in around 2 weeks, but AT ABOUT WEEKS
3 & 4, THE MONEY STORM WILL HIT YOUR MAILBOX!!
These program is worked to make $50,000.00 even if you make $1,000.00
who is going to complain!!!
For only $ 5.00 give it a try!!


*     HONESTY IS WHAT MAKES THIS PROGRAM
SUCCESSFUL!!!
*     HONESTY IS WHAT MAKES THIS PROGRAM
SUCCESSFUL!!!
*     HONESTY IS WHAT MAKES THIS PROGRAM
SUCCESSFUL!!!

NOTE: Try to keep a list of everyone that sends you a dollar, keep
good records for your tax return, 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.....
*** AGAIN,  HONESTY IS THE BEST THING WE HAVE
GOING FOR US ON THIS PLAN so please follow ALL rules.

NOW LET ME TELL YOU WHY THIS SYSTEM WORKS! Of
every 200 postings made, let's say you get an average of 10 replies
(rough estimate), each with a $1 bill enclosed. You make $10 for
every 200 postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 5. Each
person who sent you $1, now also makes let's say, 200 additional
postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 4, i.e. 1000
postings.  On average therefore, 50 people will send you $1 with
your name at number 4. You make $50. Your 50 new agents make
200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 3 or
10,000 postings - average return 500 at $1 each is $500. These 500
agents then make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT
NUMBER 2 =  100,000 postings 5000 returns at $1 each = $5000.
Finally, 5000 people make 200 postings each WITH YOUR
NAME AT NUMBER 1 and you get a return of $50,000 before
you name drops off the list. AND THAT'S IF EVERYONE
DOWN THE LINE ONLY MAKES 200 POSTINGS! Total
income in one cycle = $55,560

Keep it legal and avoid
hassles with the IRS.  This business is legal under title 18, Section
1302 and 1341 of the US Postal lottery laws.  Make sure to remain
honest at all times and to keep the integrity of the list intact.  We
are
all working for each other!  GOOD LUCK!

Conversation with unknown Skeptic:

Q: Is this another one of those pyramid schemes or illegal chain
letters?

A: No!  The sad part about it is that most people don't even know
the difference between legal pyramids and illegal pyramids (or
illegal chain letters)  They just repeat what they've heard from other
people who don't even know what they're talking about.

Q: Well, what's the difference then?

A:  A Legal pyramid provides a service or good for its members.
Also, if you are going to be a member of any pyramid, YOU
MUST PAY YOUR TAXES.  This is the #1 problem that the
government has with MLMs.  You as an individual MUST pay
your taxes in order to stay legal.  It's individuals within the pyramid
that can make a pyramid illegal not the pyramid itself.  So if you
join, PLEASE PAY YOUR TAXES so we can all keep making
money!!  Now, what you'd be doing with this particular program is
compiling mailing lists.  You could actually make a strong business
out of selling these mailing lists to marketing companies, mail order
businesses, ad agencies, MLMs, or various other businesses.  You
could even start you own mail order company or something and
target these people as your primary consumers.  The reason why
you would target these people as customers is because they are
generally very open minded to new concepts, products, and ideas
(i.e. The Perfect Potential Customers).  You are paying $1 to be
added to a mailing list and also to get into this program so you can
compile your own list.

Q:  OK, I pretty much understand the taxes and all that stuff, but
isn't it still a chain letter?

A:  In order for it to be constituted as being a chain letter, there has
to be solicitation of people into a pyramid by US MAIL.  The fact
of the matter is, there IS no solicitation through the US MAIL
because there is no letter accompanying the money.  There is only a
one line statement saying "Ad me to your list", a name, and an
address.  The actual solicitation is made via the INTERNET.
Think about it, how do you think Ed McMahon is able to pay
people $26,000,000 at a time off of Advertising  on TV THEN
sending you stuff through the mail.  The US Postal Service has
absolutely no jurisdiction over the INTERNET or any other on-line
Service.  Your business commitment is made by computer.
THAT'S THE BEAUTY OF THE WHOLE THING!

S:  That does make sense.  Hell, I don't have anything to lose
anyway.  It's only $5.  Thanx alot man, you've been a big
help..
