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

Hmm...that makes a change. Last 500 people who junk mailed me said that
too...

>>
>>
>> A while back, I was browsing these newsgroups,  just like you are now,

No, I don't browse, I come to a particular newsgroup and post
messages...browsing wastes too much money...

>> 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!"

Gee, that was hard to work out! You were right by the way...

 But like most of us I
>> was
>> curious and kept reading.

Curious? Most of us? No, we just love slagging these things off cos they're
so unbelievably obvious...

 It said that if you send $1.00 to each of
>> the 6 names and addresses listed in the article,

Then you just lost $6...precisely. Well done. Again, perception wins.

 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.

And the people in those newsgroups will really appreciate bulk mailing.
Right, that makes sense.

(There are about 32,000 of them out there and that's quite a
>>
>> large market pool).

With loads of people who really don't give a toss...

No catch, that was it.

Apart from the losing $6 part...

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.

You still lost that $6...

>>
>> 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!!!

Apart from the people at the bottom of the pyramid. There isn't infinite
cash in the world, you know...

>>
>> 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!!!

Good. Now please sod off and leave us in peace...

>> 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 !!!

I can give an easy explanation for the money you're getting. Someone is
paying you to bulk mail all these newsgroups. More fool them.

>>
>> Also, make sure you print a copy of this article NOW,

So not only have I lost $6 then, I've just lost a whole load of valuable
printer ink as well and a piece of paper. No way.

 so you can get the
>>
>> information off of it as you need it.

I will never 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!

Why?

(print it out or
>> download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the CASH come in!
>> It's
>> easy.
>> It's legal.

May I just say, bullshit it is (sorry to younger readers). It's just a
pyramid scam.

And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus postage)
>>
>> IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off;

Yes it is.

it is not indecent;

No, but it is nicking money off the people at the bottom of the pile, which
is hardly very nice...

it is not illegal;

'fraid it is...

>>
>> and it is virtually no risk - it really works!!!!

For the person at the top who starts it, yes...anyway, I would continue
slagging this off, but I have a life as well, so let's call it a day...

I leave you with a personalised message: FOR GOODNESS SAKE YOU SAD JUNK
MAILERS, GET A DAMN LIFE!!!!!!

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...
