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 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 or 6
one-dollar coins if you live in Canada, and place ONE inside EACH of the 6
pieces of paper so the bill/coin 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) TC McCutcheon 303 Reservoir Road West Chester, Pa 19380

2) Raf Sura 68 Dorchester Blvd. St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. L2M 6V2

3) Stuart King 77 Redcliffe Avenue, Balga Perth, Western Australia, 6061,
Australia

4) K. Eden 1703 21st St #5 Birmingham, Al. 35025

5) D. Hailey 333 E. Arrow Hwy, Box 1881 Upland, CA USA 91785-1881

6)Mohamed Mahad.

P.o.Box:42067

1200 St.Laurent Blvd,Ottawa,On,

K1K-3B8,CANADA

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, adds your
own name to the list and you're in business! ---DIRECTIONS ----- HOW TO POST

IT! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away, after

**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!
