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

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,
Charles Kust

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
