: Here it is!
: : TURN SIX DOLLARS INTO SIX THOUSAND QUICK AND EASY.
: : ------------------------------------------------------------------------
: : ------------------------------------------------------------------------
: : READING THIS COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE! IT DOES WORK!
: : I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A little while back, I was browsing through
: newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could
: make thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought,
: "Yeah right, this must be a scam", but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it
: said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the article. You then place
: your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200
: newsgroups. (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to a
: few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured: "what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and
: $6.00, right?" Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT!?... within 7 days, I started
: getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept
: coming in. In my first week, I made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made a
: total of over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now
: my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. It's
: certainly worth $6.00, and 6 stamps, I have 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. I promise you that if you
: follow the directions exactly, that you will start making more money than you thought possible by
: doing something so easy!
: : Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (print it out or download it.) Follow the simple
: directions and watch the money come in!
: : It's easy. It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00.
: : IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal; and it is 99% no risk - it
: really works!
: : If all of the following instructions are adhered to, you will receive extraordinary dividends.
: : PLEASE NOTE:
: : Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be yours in 20 to 60 days.
: This program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants. Please
: continue its success by carefully adhering to the instructions.
: : You will now become part of the Mail Order business. In this business your product is not solid
: and tangible, it's a service. You are in the business of developing Mailing Lists. Many large
: corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made from the
: mailing lists is secondary to the income which is made from people like you and me asking to be
: included in that list.
: : Here are the 4 easy steps to success:
: : STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper "PLEASE
: PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 6 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH
: of the 6 pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope (to prevent thievery).
: Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them. You should now have 6 sealed
: envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name and address, and a
: $1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating a service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! You are
: requesting a legitimate service and you are paying for it! 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
: (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal. Mail the 6 envelopes to the following
: addresses
: : #1) Jeff Brookman
: : 3415 Covered Bridge Ln.
: : Charlotte, NC 28210
: : #2) Wit Wichaidit
: : 10912 Broad Green Terrace
: : Potomac, MD 20854
: : #3) Mike Schude
: : 893 S. roanoke
: : Gilbert, AZ 85296
: : #4) D. Freeman
: : 11045 Harbour Springs Circle
: : Boca Raton, Fl 33428
: #5)v.cooper
: 108 denham st.
: Thomaston,GA 30286
: #6) F. Quiroga
: 7328 Swallow Run
: Winter Park, Fl 32792
:
: : STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move
: : the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR
: : Name as number 6 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 are close to 24,000
: groups) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make! You
: won't get very much unless you post like crazy.
: : This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18
: : Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws.
: : Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money,
: : you can use it again, and again.
: :
: : PLEASE REMEMBER that this program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity
: of the participants and by their carefully adhering to the directions. Look at it this way. If you are of
: integrity, the program will continue and the money that so many others have received will come
: your way.
: : NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to you, either on a computer or
: hard copy and keep the notes people send you. This VERIFIES that you are truly providing a
: service. (Also, it might be a good idea to wrap the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk of mail
: theft.)
: :
: : So, as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed, six members will be
: reimbursed for their participation as a List developer with one dollar each. Your name will move up
: the list geometrically so that when your name reaches the #1 position you will be receiving
: thousands of dollars in CASH!!! What an opportunity for only $6.00 ($1.00 for each of the first six
: people listed above) Send it now, add your own name to the list and you're in business!
: : ---DIRECTIONS ----- HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS------------
: : Step 1) You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own posting. Simply put your
: cursor at the beginning of this letter and drag your cursor to the bottom of this document, and select
: 'copy' from the edit menu. This will copy the entire letter into the computer's memory.
: : Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your cursor at the top of the blank page. From the
: 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will paste a copy of the letter into notepad so that you can add your
: name to the list.
: : Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you want to do your postings in different
: settings, you'll always have this file to go back to.
: : Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and try searching for various newsgroups (on-line
: forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.)
: : Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new message by highlighting the text
: of this letter and selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that
: everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a particular group, click the post message
: button. You're done with your first one! Congratulations...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 about 30 seconds
: for each newsgroup! **REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE
: MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**
: That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within days! You may eventually
: want to rent a P.O.Box due to the large amount of mail you will 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 CORRECT.**
: : Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each
: with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for
: me, now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each,
: I will bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post the
: MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an additional
: $625.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters
: with my name at #2 and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those
: 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5
: persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive $15,625,00! With an original investment of only
: $6.00! AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting in the
: newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to names on the list, putting your name at number 6 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 $6.00 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 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 joining the actual internet. Remember, play
: FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will really work.
