PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE MESSAGE:

FACT:		Bad things go away.
PROOF: 	8 track tapes, Acne

FACT:  		Good things stay with us.
PROOF:		Computers, Cars, Elvis

The above concept explains in the simplest terms why the concept
of creating mailing lists is still with us.  It works.

It is good for the people who participate.

THINK ABOUT IT:  (I mean really think about it.)

1.  People keep participating.  This alone means that it works.  If no 
one ever made money, the posts would stop.  They havent.

2.  It makes mathematical sense.  I only wish, I would have thought 
about it earlier, as I have seen countless posts and could already be 
rich if I just bought into the idea that I too could become financially 
independent.

A recent study of classical economics has changed my mind.  I 
learned all economic systems are based on trust.  This system is no 
different.  If people trust the system, it will work.  All that is needed
 is for people to THINK ABOUT IT.  (Like I did and put my money 
where my mouth is.)  Besides it is only 5 dollars.  You probably blow 
5 dollars every time you go out and you never miss it then, right?

              ++++++++++++INSTRUCTIONS++++++++++++++++

Follow these instructions EXACTLY, then around about 20 to 60
days you should start receiving dollars in CASH.  

[1]  Immediately mail $1.00 to the first 5 names listed below:  starting
with number 1 through number 5.  SEND CASH ONLY.  (Total
investment is $5.00 plus postage)

	ENCLOSE A LETTER WITH A NOTE STATING:
                  Please add my name to your mailing list
include your name and mailing address.  You are buying the right to have 
your name included in these 5 peoples mailing lists.  This is a legitimate
and valuable service that you are requesting and you are paying $1.00 for
this service.  Being on mailing lists is the best way to stay current on
emerging technologies, new business opportunities, etc., without having
to do anything for the information.  It comes to you.  Make sure your
name and address is legible, otherwise, it is not possible to add your 
information to the lists.  Also, fold the letter around the dollar.  This 
is to ensure the dollar is not visible to a thief.

[2]  Rewrite, reformat, modify this letters TEXT content any way you wish.

DO NOT MESS UP THE LIST!!!! DO THE FOLLOWING TO THE LIST:

Remove the name that appears as number 1 on the list.  Move the other 9 
names up one position (number 2 becomes number 1, number 3 becomes 
number 2 and so on).  Place your name, address and zip code in the 
number 10 position.

[3]  With your name in the number 10 position, upload this ENTIRE 
FILE to  15 different bulletin boards, newsgroups, e-mail, etc...Use your
creativity in this area.  The idea is to get as many people as possible to 
read it and mail the top 5 people 1 dollar each.  You may post it to the 
BBSs message base or to the file section.  Name it TO_LEGIT.TXT, 
for example and use the file description comments to draw attention 
to this file and its great potential for all of us.  

++++WARNING++++Be prudent with your postings to avoid being 
flamed.  (Is that possible on this newsgroup?)

[4]  Check your mailbox daily.
       Keep a copy of this file for yourself so that you can use it again.  
As soon as you mail out these letters you are automatically in the mail
order business.  People will send you $1.00 to be placed on your mailing 
list.  This list can then be rented to a broker that can be found in your 
local yellow pages.  The larger the list the more it is worth.  You have 
likely seen posts right here that offer mailing lists.  These are a 
marketable 
HOT item.  You are now in the mail order business.

This is a service and IT IS PERFECTLY LEGAL!  If you have any doubts
as to the legality of this service, please refer to Title 18.h sections 
1302 &
1301 of the Postal Lottery Laws.  These may be found in your local 
library.

NOTE:  Make sure that you retain EVERY name and address sent to you 
either on computer or hard copy.  This is PROOF your business is 
providing a service.

Remember, as each post is downloaded and the instructions carefully 
followed, five members will be reimbursed for their participation as List
Developer for $1.00 each.  Your name will move up the list geometrically
so that when your name reaches the number 5 position you will be
receiving thousands of dollars in cash.  THE MORE TIMES YOU POST,
THE MORE MONEY YOU COULD MAKE!!!

THE PROGRAM WILL ONLY WORK IF YOU ARE HONEST!!!.
		PLEASE BE HONEST!!!!!!!!

P.S.  We monitor the net and keep track of people who cheat.  You do 
not want to get on that list.

Well, in any case, we hope that you follow through with all the 
instructions in this letter in order to build your business.  If you do 
you
may expect to start getting mail from your first clients in roughly three 
weeks.

I with you the best and hope that you benefit from this, just like
numerous individuals from coast to coast and all over the world.

The following letters were written by participating members in  this 
program.

To those with the COMMON sense to participate in this revenue 
generating opportunity:  About six months ago, I received the enclosed 
post in letter form.  I ignored it.  I received about five more and the 
same
letter within the next two weeks.  I ignored them also.  Of course, I was 
tempted to follow through and dreamed of making thousands but I was
convinced it was another gimmick and could not possibly work.

I was wrong!  About three weeks later I saw this same letter posted on a 
local bulletin board in Montreal.  I liked the idea of giving it a try 
with
my computer.  I didnt expect much because I figured, if other people 
were as skeptical as I, they would not be too quick to part with $5.00.  
But, I BUY LOTTERY TICKETS WEEKLY IN MY PROVINCE AND
HAVE NOTHING TOO SHOW FOR IT BUT TICKET STUBS! I 
decided to look at this as my lottery purchase.  I addressed the envelopes
and mailed out $1.00 in each as directed.  

Two week went by and I didnt receive anything in the mail.  The fourth
week rolled around and I couldnt believe what happened!  I can not say
that I received $50,000 but it was definitely over $3500.00!  For the 
first
time in 10 years I am on my way of being out of debt.  It is so great.  I 
am now using this excellent money making opportunity once again.  
PLEASE FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AND GET READY TO ENJOY!  
People who are skeptical should read this letter.  I was the worse 
skeptic of all.
		The Best,

Hello, My name is Steven Green.  As you may have noticed I am the 
10th name on this list.  so I do not have a rags-to riches story to tell, 
yet.
However, I did make a phone call to the 2nd name on the list, Ernest
Loveday.  Did he have a rags to riches story to tell?  Not exactly.  He 
did
not follow the directions.  He lost faith in the program before he 
finished.
He only uploaded this file on one BBS, which happens to be operated by
Darryl McGinnis, the 3rd name on the list.  Ernest told me that he has
received $92.00 to date (01/06/90).  I realize this is far from the rags 
to
riches, dream we have, yet one must keep two things in mind:

1.  $92.00 is almost 10 times his initial investment and it only took 
about
an hour of  his time (theres really nothing to lose.)

2.  This program works mathematically on an exponential scale.  In other
words, for every one BBS, that this file is uploaded onto, it should 
spread
to at least ten other BBSs he should have at least gotten a hundred fold
what he has, which would be $9200.00.  Not bad for an hours work and
a $6.60 total investment.

Hello.  I am at #10 now, T. Smith, (1/96) I have been racking my brain
trying to figure how to save money for my infant sons education. 
Hopefully my involvement here will help.  Every dollar that comes
into my mail box will be placed in a trust for my sons education.  
Please participate.  Its only 5 bucks out of your pocket.  So give up that
burger on the chance that you will eat filet mignon later
