A little while back, I was browsing these newsgroups, just like you are
now, and came across an article like this that said you could make
thousnads of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $5.00!
 So I thought, "Yeah right, this is a scam!" like most of us, but I was
curious, so Ikept reading.  Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 t each of
the 5 names and addresses stated in the article.  You then place you own
name and addrress in the bottom of the list at # 5 and post the article in
at least 200 newsgroups.  (there are thousands!)  No catch, that was it.  I
figured, "What have I got to lose except 5 stamps and $5.00, right?"  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
(1-800725-2161) and they confirmed that it is  indeed legal!  Then I
invested the measly $5.00.  Well Guess What?!  Within 7 days, I started
getting money in the mail!  I was shocked! Figured it would end soon and
didn't give it another thought.  But the money just kept coming in.  In my
first week, I made about $20.00 to $30.00. By the end of the second week, I
had made a total of over $1,000 !!!  In the third week, I had over $10,000
and it was still growing.  This is now my Fourth week and I have made a
total of just over $42,000 and it is still coming in!!!  It's certainly
worth $5.00 and 5 stamps.  I spent more than that on the lottery!  Let me
tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works.  Also make sure
you print a copy of this article NOW so you can get the information off as
you need it.  The process is simple and consist of 3 easy steps:

	Step 1:  Get 5 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each
piece: "Please put me on your mailing list."  What you are doing is making
a service by this.  This is perfectly legal!  Now get 5 $1.00 bills and
place one inside each of the 5 pieces of pater so that the bill will not be
seen throught the envelope to prevent thievery.  Next, place one paper in
each of the 5 envelopes and seal them.  You should now have 5 sealed
envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase and a $1.00
bill.  Mail the 5 envelopes to the following addresses:

#1 JK Lindsay,  770 Bobby Hope Rd.  Rose Hill,  NC 28458

#2 M. Mafucci,  3 Hilltop Rd.  Bronxville, NY  10708

#3 Joyal Holder,  1980 N. Snyder Dr.  Richland Center, Wisconsin  53581

#4 D. Garcia,  P.O. Box 28096  San Jose, CA   95159

#5 W. Manwaring,  1401 Lewisville Rd.  Minden, LA 71055

	Step 2:  Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the
other names up ( 5 becomes 4, 4 becomes 3, etc.) and add your name as #5 on
the list.

	Step 3:  Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as
close to the original as possible.  Now post you amended article to at
least 200 newsgroups.  (I think there are close to 18,000 groups, with more
new ones everyday.)  All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post,
the more mony you will make!  Don't know hot post newsgroups?

	Well, do exactly the following:  FOR NETSCAPE USERS:  1) Click on any
newsgroup, like normal. then click on "To News" which is in the top left
corner of the newsgroup page.  This will bring up a message box.  2)  Fill
in the subject with a flashy title, like the one I used-- something to
catch the eye!!!  3)  Now go the message part of the box and copy this
letter exactly as it is here, with the exception of your few changes. 
(Remember to add your name to #5 and move the rest up!!!)  4) When you're
donewith the whole letter, click on "File" above the send button. Then,
"SAVE AS."  DO NOT SEND YOUR ARTICLE UNTIL YOU SAVE IT!  (So you don't have
to tye this 200 times.)  5)  Now that you have saved the letter, go ahead
and send you first copy!  (click the "SEND" button in the top left corner.)
 6) This is where you post all 200!  Olay, go to any news group article and
click the "TO NEWS" button again. Type in your flashy subject in the
"Subject Box", then got to the message and place your cursor there. Now
click on "ATTACHMENT" whic is right below the "Subject Box"  Click on
"ATTACH FILE" then find you letter wherever you saved it. Click once on
your file, then click "Open" then click "OK".  If you did this right, you
should see you filename in the "ATTACHMENT BOX and it will be shaded. Now
post away!!  IF YOU ARE USING INTERNET EXPLORER: It's just as easy. 
Holding down the left mouse button, highlight this entire article, then
press "CTRL" and "C" at the same time to copy this article.  Then print the
article for your records to have the names of those you will be sending
$1.00 to.  NEXT:  Go to the newsgroups and press "POST AN ARTICLE."  Then
type in your fladhy subject and click the large window below. Press "CTRL"
and "V" and the article will appear in the message window.  **Be sure to
make your address changes to the 5 names.  **Now re-highlight the article
and re-copy it so you have the changes.  Then all you have to do for each
newsgroup is "CTRL" and "V" and press "POST." Its that easy!  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 30 seconds for each newsgroup!
**Remember, the more newsgroups you post in the more money you will make!!
But you have to post a minium of 200. **That's it!! You will begin
receiving money from around the world within days!  You may eventually want
to rent a PO Box due to the large amount of mail you 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 corrrect.**

	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 #5 on the letter. 
Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make teh minium 200
postings, each with my name at #4, and only 5 persons respond to each of
the original 5.  That's another $25.00 for me.  Now those 25 each make 200
minimum  postings with my name at #3 and only 5 reply to each. I will bring
in an additional $125.00 !   Now , those 125 persons turn around and post
the minimum 200 with my name at #2 and only receive 5 replies each, I will
make and additioal $626.00 !  Okay, now here is the fun part.  Each of
those 625 persons post a minimum 200 letters eith my name at #1 and they
each only receive 5 replies.  That just made me $3,125.00 with an original
investment of only $5.00!  AMAZING!  And as I said, 5 responses is actually
very low!  Average is probably 20 to 30!  So lets's put those figures at
just 15 responses per person. Here is what you will make: at 	#5 - $15.00
		#4 - $225.00 
		#3 - $3,375.00
		#2 - $50,625.00
		#1 - $759,375.00

When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting
and start all over again.  Be honest. If you don't conme up with the measly
$1.00 per person, people will know and you won't get much.  One guy did
that and made only $15o in eight weeks.  Keep track of who sends you money
and watch the newsgroups for those names.

Legal part:  You are using the Internet to advertise your buisness. What
buisness?  You are assembling a mailing list of people who are interested
in home based computer and online buisness 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 you do with you list is up to you.  So build your
mailing list, keep good accounts, declare the income and pay your taxes and
your church.  By doing this you prove your buisness intentions.
Gook luck post away.
