Why not save yourself $5 (or �5) and just add your name to the list as
#5 and put that on the news groups !!

> A little while back, I was browsing these newsgroups, just

> So after thinking it over, and talking to a few people

> Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little

>confirmed that it is indeed legal!

> Well GUESS WHAT!!... with in 7 days, I started getting

>fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000.00 
>and it's still comming 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 of it as 
>you need it. The process is very simple and consists of 3 
>easy steps:
>
> STEP 1: Get 5 separate pices of paper and write the 
>following on each piece of paper  "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR 
>MAILING LIST."  Now get 5 $1.00 bills and place ONE inside 
>EACH of the 5 pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen 
>through 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. What you are 
>doing is creating a service by this. THIS IS PREFECTLY 
>LEGAL!
>
> Mail the 5 envelpoes to the following addresses:
>
> #1 Steven Roper
>    86 Finch Roper
>    Ball Ground, GA 30107

> #2 Michael Henry
>    518 West College Ave.

>
> #5 Julie Hunter    
>    14580 S. Camp Williams Rd.
>    Bluffdale, Ut 84065-4903
>
> 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 number 5 on the list.
>
> STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this 
>article as close to original as possible. Now, post your 
>amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. (I think there 
>is close to 18,000 groups) All you need is 200, but 
>remember, the more you post, the more money you make!
>
>Don't know HOW to post in the 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, somethig to catch the eye!!!
>
>    3) Now go to the message part of the box and retype 
>this letter exactly as it is here, with exception of your 
>few changes. (remember to add your name to number 5 and 
>move the rest up)
>
>    4) When your done typing in the WHOLE letter, click on 
>'FILE' above the send button. Then, 'SAVE AS..' DO NOT SEND 
>YOUR ARTICLE UNTILL YOU SAVE IT. (so you don't have to type 
>this 200 times :-)
>
>    5) Now that you have saved the letter, go ahead and 
>send your first copy! (click the 'SEND' button in the top 
>left corner)
>
>    6) This is where you post all 200! OK, go to ANY 
>newsgroup article and click the 'TO NEWS'button again. Type 
>in your flashy subject in the 'SUBJECT BOX', then go to the 
>message and place your cursor here. Now click on

> That's it! You will begin reciving money from around the

>wish to stay anonymous, you con 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 #5 
>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 
>#4 and only 5 persons respond to eachh of the original 5, 
>that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each make
>200 MINIMUM postswith my name at #3 and only 5 replies 
>each, I will bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125 
>persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200with my name at 
>#2 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 #1 and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made 
>me $3,125.00!!! With a original investment of only $5.00! 
>AMAZING! And as I said 5 responses is actually VERY LOW! 
>Average is probable 20 to 30! So lets put those figures at 
>just 15 responses per person. Here is what you will make:
>
>    at #5 $15.00
>
>    at #4 $225.00
>
>    at #3 $3,375.00
>
>    at #2 $50,625.00
>
>    at #1 $759,375.00
>
> When your name is no  longer on the list, you just take 
>the latest posting in the newsgroups, and send out another 
>$5.00 to names on the list, putting your name at number 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 
>everyday, JUST LIKE YOU are now!! So can you afford $5.00 
>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 everday 
>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 work. 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 the money!!  
>
> GOOD LUCK to all and please play fairly and reap the huge 
>rewards from this, which is tons of extra CASH. **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 5 $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.
>
> Please remember to declare your extra income.   Thanks
