GET $40,000 WITH ONLY 6 BUCKS!!! THIS IS NOT A SCAM!!!


A while back, I was browsing these newsgroups,  just like you are now,
and I came across an article similar to this that said you could make
thousands
of CASH within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00 plus
stamps!
So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam!" But like most of us I
was
curious and kept reading. It said that if you send $1.00 to each of
the 6 names and addresses listed in the article, you could make
thousands
in a very short period of time. You then place your own name and address

at the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article to at least 300
newsgroups. (There are about 32,000 of them out there and that's quite a

large market pool). No catch, that was it. Even though the investment
was
a measly $6, I had three questions that needed to be answered before I
could
get involved in this sort of thing.

1. IS THIS REALLY LEGAL?
I called a lawyer first. The lawyer was a little skeptical that I would
actually make any CASH but he said it WAS LEGAL if I wanted to try it.
I told him it sounded a lot like a chain letter but the details of the
system (SEE BELOW) actually made it a legitimate legal business.

2. IS OK WITH THE POST OFFICE OR IS IT MAIL FRAUD? I called them:
1-800-725-2161 and they confirmed THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! (See 18,
h sections1302 NS 1341 of Postal Lottery Laws). This
clarifies the program of collecting names and addresses for a mailing
list.

3. IS IT RIGHT? Well, everyone who sends me a buck has a good chance of
getting A LOT of CASH ... a much better chance than buying a lottery
ticket!!!

So, having these questions answered, I invested EXACTLY $7.98 ... six
$1.00 bills and six 33 cent postage stamps ... and boy am I glad I
did!!!
Within 7 days, I started getting CASH in the mail! I was shocked! I
figured it would end soon and didn't give it another thought. But the
CASH
continued coming in. In my first week I made between $20 to $30.
By the end of the second week I had a made a total of $1,000.00. In the
third week I had over $10,000.00 and it was still growing. This is now
my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000 and it's
still
coming
in ..... It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 stamps !!!

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 CASH 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 CASH come in!
It's
easy.
It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus postage)

IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal;

and it is virtually 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 CASH 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). 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) A. F.
University Towers
536 S. Forest, Apt. #1703
Ann Arbor, MI 48104

#2) P.L.
P.O. Box  30751
Philadelphia, PA 19104

#3) L. Nguyen
P.O. Box  30719
Philadelphia, PA 19104

#4) C.W.
108 Monument Dr.
Philadelphia, PA 19104

#5) Rick Cobble
501 Hickory Trail Drive
Nashville, TN  37209

#6) T. C.
P.O. Box 2186
Joliet, IL  60436

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 300
newsgroups. (I think there are close to 32,000 groups) All you need is
300, but remember, the more you post, the more CASH you make! This is
perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to 18 Sec. 1302 & 1341 of

the Postal lottery laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and,
whenever
you need CASH, 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 a person of integrity, the program will
continue and the CASH 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 ----- FOR 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 letter, 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 CASH YOU WILL MAKE!!
BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 300**

That's it! You will begin receiving CASH 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 the WHY part:
Out of 300 postings, say I receive only 7 replies (a very low example).
So then I made $7.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the
7
persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 300 postings, each with
my name
at #5 and only 7 persons respond to each of the 7 original 7, that is
another $49.00 for me, now those 49 each make 300 MINIMUM posts with my
name at
#4 and only 7 replies each, I will bring in an additional $343.00! Now,
those 343 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 300 with my name at
#3 and
only receive 7 replies each, I will make an additional $2401.00! OK, now

here is the fun part, each of those 2401 persons post a MINIMUM 300
letters with my name at #2 and they each only receive 7 replies, that
just made
me $16,807.00!!! Those 16807 persons will all deliver this message to
300
newsgroups with
my name at #1 and if still 7 persons per 300 Newsgroups react I will
receive
$117,649.00! With an original investment of only $6.00! And some stamps.

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 CASH? 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.

** By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages with

your name in the list and not sending the CASH 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 6 $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 CASH. Make sure

you
print
this article out RIGHT NOW! Also, try to keep a list of everyone that
sends you
CASH 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 CASH!! GOOD LUCK to all and please play
fairly
and reap the huge rewards from this, which is tons of extra CASH.

Please remember to declare your extra income. Thanks once again...

"People have asked me if this is really legal. Well, it is! You are
using the Internet to advertise your business. What is that business?
You are
creating a mailing list of people who are interested in home based
computer and
online business and methods of generating income at home. Remember,
people send you a small fee to be added to your mailing list. It is
legal. what
will you do with your list of thousands of names? That's up to you." So,

build your mailing list, keep good accounts, declare the income and pay
your
taxes.
By doing this you prove your business intentions. Keep an eye on the
newsgroups
and when the cash has stopped coming (that means your name is no longer
on the
list), you just take the latest posting at the newsgroups, send another
$6.00
to the names stated on the list, make your corrections (put your name at

#6)
and
start posting again.

NOTES:
*1. In some countries, the export of the country's exchange is illegal.
But you can get the license to do this from the post office, explaining
the
above statements (that you have an online business, etc. You may have to

pay an
extra tax, but that's OK, the amount of the incoming CASH is HUGE! And
as I said, a FEW countries have that restriction .
*2. You may want to buy mailing and e-mail lists for future CASH.
(Or Database or Spreadsheet software.)
*3. If you're really not sure or still think this can't be for real,
please print a copy of this article and give it to
someone who really needs the CASH, and see what happens.
*4. You will start getting responses within 1-2 weeks, it depends.

***ALSO REMEMBER***
SEND YOUR $1 OUT TO EVERYONE ON THE LIST,
EVEN IF THEY ARE NOT FROM THE U.S.

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR???
$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!

GOOD LUCK!!!
