I am going to try this investment opportunity.  The following story is not
mine,
but I am going to follow the steps.  It only takes about 5 minutes to
read.
It sounds like a good opportunity if people can follow directions.
Just follow the steps that are in the middle or the article and
the investment of $5 and 5 stamps should pay off.
Remember to keep track of what you recieve
to report as the return on your investment

A little while back, I was browsing through these

newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar
to this that said you could make thousands of dollars in weeks with only
an initial investment of $5!  So, I thought, "Yeah, right, must be a
scam", but I was curious, like most of us, so I kept reading. Anyway, it
said that you send $1 to each of the 5 names and addresses stated in the
article. You then place your own name and address in the article at
the bottom of the list at #5, and post the article in at least 200

newsgroups (there are thousands).  No catch, that was it!

So after thinking it over, talking to a few people first, I tried it.

I figured what have I got to lose except for 5 stamps and $5, right?

Well, guess what... within 7 days, I started getting money in the
mail!

I was shocked! I still figured it would end soon, and didn't give it

another thought. But then money kept coming IN, tripling in size and

multiplying by 10-20 times the amount that I got the first week! In my

first week I made about 20 to 30 dollars. But 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 dollars, and it's still growing. This is my fourth week

and I've made about $42,000 TOTAL, and the money is still coming
in.....


Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, WHY it

works... also, make sure you print a copy of the article NOW, so you
get the informatoin off of it, and begin making money.

The process is very simple, and it consists of 3 EASY steps:

STEP 1:  Get 5 seperate pieces of paper and write the following on
each sheet of paper..."PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST. YOU ARE NUMBER
X(put which number they were on the list)
Get five $1 bills and place ONE inside each piece of paper that
you just wrote on, and fold each piece of paper so the bill will not be
seen in the envelope (otherwise, nosey people who like to steal envelopes
with money in it will get yours). Put one paper inside the envelope
and seal it. Do the same for all 5. You should now have 5 envelopes
sealed, EACH have a piece of paper AND a $1 bill stuffed inside of the
paper. Make sure those words that were stated above are stated on each
paper. What you are doing is creating a service by this, this is
PERFECTLY LEGAL. Now then, mail the 5 envelopes with the paper and $1
in each to the following 5 addresses:


1.  Tawn Winn
1400 E. Lamar Blvd 206
Arlington, TX 76011

2. Jeremiah Stuppy
467 Enders Rd
Halifax, PA 17032

3.  Gus Johnson
P.O. Box 535082
Grand Prairie, TX 75053

4. S. Stapleton
6329 Hwy 135 N.
Lake City, AR 72401

5. M. McDowell
2555C SW Pickford
Corvallis, OR   97333


STEP 2:  Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move
the other 4 names up (5 becoming 4, 4 becoming 3, ect.) and put YOUR NAME
as number 5 on the list.  You can slightly alter this article if you need
to, editing what you need to edit.

STEP 3:  Post your amended article (with your name at #5) to at least
200 news groups (I think there are close to 18,000 of them). All you
need is say, at least 200.  HOW TO DO THIS: If you have Netscape 3.0
do EXACTLY the following:

1)  Click on any news group like normal, THEN click on 'TO NEWS',
which is on the far left when you're in the newsgroups page. This will
bring up a box to type a message in.

2)  Leave the newsgroup box like it is, CHANGE the subject box to
something flashy, like, "NEED CASH $$$  READ HERE $$$" or "FAST
CASH"!!!

3)  Tab once and you should be ready to type. Now, retype (only once)

THIS whole article WORD FOR WORD, except to insert your name at #5,
and to remove #1 off the list, plus any other small changes you think you
need to make. Keep almost all of it the SAME!

4)  When you're done typing the WHOLE article, click on FILE in THIS
BOX, RIGHT ABOUVE SEND, NOT WHERE IT SAYS NETSCAPE NEWS ON THE FIRST
BOX. Click on SAVE AS when you're under FILE. Save your article as a
text file to your C: or A: drive. DO NOT SEND OR POST YOUR ARTICLE
UNTIL YOU DO THIS. Once saved, move on to number 5 below.

5)  If you still have all of your text, send or post to this newsgroup
now by just clicking send, which is right below FILE, and right above
Cc: .

6)Here's where you're going to post all 200. OK, click on any news
group then click on 'TO NEWS', again in the top left corner. Leave the
NEWSGROUPS BOX alone again, put a flashy subject title in the SUBJECT
BOX, hit TAB once you're in the body of the message, and then click on
ATTACHMENTS, which is below the SUBJECT BOX. You will get another box
to come up. Click on ATTACH FILE, then find YOUR file that you saved;
click once on the file, and then click OPEN' now click on OK; if you
did this right, you should see your file name in the attachments box, and
it will be shaded green.

IF YOU USE IE EXPLORER IT'S JUST AS EASY... HOLDING DOWN THE LEFT
MOUSE BUTTON, HIGHLIGHT THIS ARTICLE. THEN PRESS THE "CRTL" KEY AND THE
C" KEY AT THE SAME TIME TO COPY THIS ARTICLE. THEN PRINT THIS ARTICLE
FOR YOUR RECORDS TO HAVE THE NAMES OF THOSE YOU WILL BE SENDING $1 BILLS
TO. NEXT GO TO THE NEWS GROUPS AND PRESS "POST AN ARTICLE", A WINDOW
WILL OPEN. TYPE YOUR HEADLINE IN THE SUBJECT AREA AND THEN CLICK IN
THE LARGE WINDOW BELOW. PRESS "CRTL" AND THEN "V" AND THE ARTICLE WILL
BE PLACED IN THE WINDOW. IF YOU WANT TO EDIT THE ARTICLE, DO SO AND
THEN HIGHLIGHT AND COPY IT AGAIN. NOW EVERYTIME YOU POST THE ARTICLE
IN A NEW NEWSGROUP YOU ONLY HAVE TO REPEAT "CTRL" AND "V" AND PRESS POST.

7)That's it. Each time you do this, all you have to do is type in a

different newsgroup, so that way, it posts to 200 DIFFERENT
newsgroups, you see? Now you just have 199 to go!! (Don't worry, each one
takes about 30 seconds, once you get used to it) REMEMBER 200 IS THE
MINIMUM.

The more you post the more money you will make.

AND THAT'S IT!!! THAT'S THE ONLY 3 STEPS THERE IS!!!

You are now in the mail order business and will start recieving your
$1 envelopes from various people all over the world within days. HINT:
THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST TO, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE. You may
want to rent a PO Box eventually because of all the mail. Just make sure
all the addresses are CORRECT, please.


LET ME TELL YOU WHY THIS SYSTEM WORKS!!!!

Out of every 200 postings, let's say I ONLY receive 5 replies, which
is actually VERY LOW. So I made 5 dollars with my name at #5. Now then,
each person who just sent me $1 makes, say only 200 postings, now with
your name at number 4, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF 1000 POSTINGS, not
including yours too. 50 people send you $1 now; thats $50 you just made!
Now, then your new 50 agents post 200 each with YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 3, OR
10,000 POSTING (50x200). Average return is 500 at $1 each is $500.
They make 200 postings, which is 5,000 returns at $1 each, which is
$5000 dollars! And finally, 5000 people make 200 postings wach with

YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 1. YOU NOW GET A RETURN OF $50,000 BEFORE YOUR
NAME DROPS OFF THE LIST. AND THAT'S IF EVERYONE MAKES 200 POSTINGS ONLY,
AND IF ONLY 5 PERSONS RESPOND!!!!!

When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest

posting that is appearing in the newsgroups, and SEND OUT ANOTHER $5
TO THE NAMES ON THE LIST, PUTTING YOUR NAME AT 5 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 EVERY DAY, JUST LIKE YOU ARE RIGHT NOW!!! So can afford $5
dollars to 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 joing the actual Internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY
and this WILL WORK, I PROMISE YOU!!! You just have to be honest. 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 MONEY!! GOOD

LUCK TO ALL AND PLEASE PLAY FAIRLY AND YOU WILL REAP THE HUGE REWARDS

FROM THIS, WHICH IS LOTS OF EXTRA CASH!!!


**By the way, if you try to decieve people by posting the messages
with

your name on the list and not sending the money to the people already
on

the list, you will not get much. Someone I talKed to knew someone who

did that and he only made $150 dollars, and that's AFTER seven or
eight

weeks! Then he sent the 5 $1 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!!!
