Make $10,000US in 3 weeks, with a $5, 15 minute investment. READ!
!! MAKE MONEY - Legal and Easy !!! 
-------START WITH ONLY $5-------
  
THIS IS THE FAIREST MOST HONEST WAY I KNOW OF TO SHARE THE WEALTH!!
Hello! Would you like to make thousands of dollars, quickly, legally,
with NO CATCH? Then keep reading.... Please take a few minutes to read
this article, it will change your life, just like it did mine. It's
true! You can make up to or over $50,000 in just 4-6 weeks, maybe
sooner!
I SWEAR I'M NOT LYING TO YOU, AND THIS IS NOT A SCAM! If you are
interested, please, just read this article in it's
entirety. If your are not, then I apologize for wasting your time. But
this could actually change your life. Here we go, a little while back,
I was browsing these 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 $5! So I
thought, "Yeah, right, must be a scam", like most of us, but I was
curious, like most of us, so I kept reading.
Anyway, it said that you send $1 to each of the 5 names and addresses 
stated in the article. You then place your own name and address in the
bottom of the list at #5, 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 for 5 stamps and $5, right? And
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 US Post
Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal,
AND the man I spoke to asked me to e-mail him a copy of the
article...............funny, but very realistic, if an opportunity
like that was floating by me I would try to grab it too. Then I
invested the measly $5......... 
Well GUESS WHAT!... within 7 days, I started getting money in the
mail! 
I was shocked! I still figured it would end soon, and didn't give it
another thought. But the money just kept coming in. In my first week, 
I made about 20 to 30 dollars. By the end of the second week I had
made a total of over $1,000!!!! In the third week I had over $10,000
and it's 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 $5, I 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. The process is very simple and
consists of 3 EASY steps:

STEP 1: Get 5 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each
piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." now get 5
American $1 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 5 pieces of paper
so the bill will not be seen through the envelope to prevent thievery.
Next, place one paper in each of the 5 envelopes and seal them. You
should now have 5 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating
the above phrase and a $1 bill. What you are doing is creating a
service by this. THIS IS PERFECTLY LEGAL! 
NOW, Mail the 5 envelopes to the following addresses: 

 1.: Johnathan Herold 7417 Tangelo Ave., Port Richey,Fl. 34668 USA 
 2.: William Pompilii 134 Clarrige Drive,Willow Grove, PA 19090 
 3.: J. Greer II 208 Warner St, Thomasville, NC 27360
4.: Wu Yaqing, Room 202,15 Lane 790,Ping Shun
Road,200435,Shanghai,China
 5.: K.Lynch, #305-1315 Esquimalt Rd, Victoria, BC, Canada,V9A3P5

STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off of the list that you see above, move
the other 4 names up. ( 5 becomes 4, 4 becomes 3, etc..) and add YOUR
NAME as number 5 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 is close to 30,000 groups) All
you NEED is 200, but remember, the MORE you post, The more money you
make! Don t know HOW to post in the newsgroups? Well do EXACTLY the
following: 
 
FOR NETSCAPE USERS, 1) Click on any newsgroup, like normal. Then click
on 'To News', which is in the top left corner of the newsgroups page.
This will bring up a message box. 2) Fill in the Subject with a FLASHY
title, like the one I used, something to catch the eye!! 3)Now, go to
the message part of the box and retype this letter exactly as it is
here, with the  exception of your few changes. (remember to add your
name to number 5 and move the rest up) 4) When your done typing in the
WHOLE letter, click on 'File' above the send button. then, 'Save As..'
DO NOT SEND YOUR ARTICLE UNTIL YOU SAVE IT. (so you don't have to type
this 200 times) 
5) Now that you have saved the letter, go ahead and send your
first copy! (click that send button in the top left corner) 6) THIS IS
WHERE YOU POST ALL 200! OK, go to ANY newsgroup article and click the
'To News' button again. Type in your flashy subject in the SUBJECT
BOX, then go to the body part of the message and place your cursor
here. NOW click on 'Attachment' which is right below the SUBJECT BOX.
click on attach file then find you letter wherever you saved it. click
once on your file and then click 'open' then click 'OK'. IF you did
this right, you should see your filename in the attachment box and it
will be shaded green. NOW POSTAWAY!!

IF YOU'RE USING INTERNET EXPLORER: It's just as easy, holding down the
left mouse button, highlight this entire article, then press the
'CTRL' key and 'C' Key at the same time to copy this article. Then
print the article for your records to have the names of those you will
be sending $1 to. NEXT go to the newsgroups and press 'POST AN
ARTICLE' Type in your fancy subject and click the large window below.
Press 'CTRL' and 'V' and the article will appear in the message
window. **BE SURE TO MAKE YOUR ADDRESS CHANGES TO THE 5 NAMES** Now
re-highlight the article and re-copy it so you have the changes...
then all you have to do for each newsgroup is
'CTRL' and 'V'. and press 'POST' IT's That EASY! THAT'S IT! all you
have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away, after you
get the hang of it, it 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 PO BOX
due to the large amount of mail you 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 200 postings,say I receive only 5 replies (a
very low example) So then I made $5 with my name at #5 on the letter.
Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1 make the MINIMUM 200
postings, each with my name at #4 and only 5 persons respond to each
of the original  5, that is another $25 for me, now those 25 each make
200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each,
I will bring in an  additional $125! NOW, those 125 persons turn
around and post the MINIMUM  200 with my name at #2 and only receive 5
replies each, I will Make an additional $625 dollars! OK, NOW here is
the FUN part, EACH of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters
with my name at #1 and they each ONLY  receive 5 replies, that just
made me $3,125!!! With a original investment of only $5 dollars!
AMAZING! And as I said 5 responses is actually VERY LOW! average is
probably 20 to 30! so lets put those figures at just 15 responses per
person. Here is What you will make: at #5 $15 at #4 $225 at #3 $3,375
at #2 $50,625 at #1 $759,375 When your name is no longer on  the list,
you just take the latest posting that is appearing in the  newgroups,
and SEND OUT ANOTHER $5 TO THE NAMES ON THE LIST, PUTTING YOUR NAME AT
NUMBER 5 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 RIGHT NOW!!! So can you afford $5 dollars 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 WORK, I
PROMISE YOU!!! You just have to be honest. Make sure you print this
article out RIGHT NOW, also. Try to keep a list of everyone that sends
you money 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 MONEY!! GOOD LUCK TO
ALL AND PLEASE PLAY FAIRLY AND YOU WILL REAP THE HUGE REWARDS FROM
THIS, WHICH IS TONS OF EXTRA CASH. ** By the way, if you try to
deceive people by posting the messages with your name in the list and
not sending the money to 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 dollars, and that's AFTER seven or eight weeks! Then
he sent the 5 $1 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 email
lists for future $$$. Please remember to declare your extra income.
Thanks once again.  Please e-mail me if you have any questions,  I
will reply ASAP.  Thanks!
