You gotta be crazy! How on earth do you think you can buy 50 grand
for lousy 5 bucks? Well, that's what I was wondering, too until I
came across this letter.
First of all, IT'S PERFECTLY LEGAL! (Call 1-800-725-2161) if you
have any questions about the following opportunity to make
$50,000.00 and that probably WITHIN LESS THAN TWO MONTHS!
Well, here it goes:
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 $5.00! So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a joke,"
but like most of us I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said
that you send $1.00 to each of the 5 names and address 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.
I knew that that was the opportunity I had waited for for a long time.
I thought it was about time that the money of the world gets into the
right hands! OURS, right? I never had a doubt that this thing will
actually work and even if it didn't, what were 5 stamps and $5.00 for
a try?
As I mentioned before, 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!
Now, that's how your story WILL sound like, too if you participate:
Well GUESS WHAT!!... with in 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 $20.00 to $30.00 dollars. 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 .......
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 $1.00
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 $1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating a service by
this. THIS IS PERFECTLY LEGAL!
Mail the 5 envelopes to the following addresses:
**IMPORTANT** Conceal the cash within the envelope!!!
#1 Anthony Lacks
644 Riverside Drive Apt.7B
New York,N.Y. 10031
#2 John Corlew
1417 Hickory Highlands Dr.
Antioch, TN 37013
#3 James MacLean
411A Highland Ave.
Somerville, MA 02144
#4 Mike Patrick
51 First Ave
Raritan, NJ 08869
#5 William Cole
9251 Soldier Rd
Ft. Belvoir, VA 22060
STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the
other names up (2 becomes 1, 3 becomes 2, 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 18,000 groups) All
you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you
make!
A great Web site to get names of newsgroups is "www.internet-now.com".
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 newsgroup 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 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 UNTILL 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 the '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 message and place your cursor here. Now
click on 'ATTACHMENT' which is right below the 'SUBJECT BOX'. Click on
attach file then find your letter wherever you saved it. Click once
on your file 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.
NOW POST AWAY!
FOR 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 $1.00 to.
Go to the newsgroups and press 'POST AN ARTICLE' type in your flashy
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 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**
**If these instructions are too complex to follow, try Forte's "Free
Agent." It is freeware for noncommercial use. To download it, simply
use a search utility and type "Forte Free Agent". You should be able
to find it.**
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 receive. If you wish to stay anonymous, you coninvent
a name to use, as long as the postman will deliver it. **JUSTMAKE SURE
ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT.**Now the WHY part:This entire principle
works because it is in a format of an upsidedown tree with thousands of
branches. Everyone below you will see toit that the tree continues
because they want to get money. Those below THEM will continue because
THEY want to get the cash etc.Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5
replies (a very lowexample). So then I made $5.00 with my name at #5 on
the letter. Now,each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the
MINIMUM 200postings, each with my name at #4 and only 5 persons respond
to eachof the original 5, that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25
eachmake 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #3 and only 5 replies each,
Iwill bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125 persons turnaround
and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #2 and only receive 5replies
each, I will make an additional $626.00! OK, now here is thefun part,
each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM of 200 letterswith my name at
#1 and they each only receive 5 replies, that justmade me $3,125.00!!!
With a original investment of only $5.00! AMAZING! And as I said 5
responses is actually VERY LOW! Average isprobable 20 to 30! So lets
put those figures at just 15 responsesper person. Here is what you will
make:at #5 $15.00at #4 $225.00at #3 $3,375.00at #2 $50,625.00at #1
$759,375.00When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the
latestposting in the newsgroups, and send out another $5.00 to names on
thelist, putting your name at number 5 and start posting again.The thing
to remember is that thousands of people all over the worldare joining
the Internet and reading these articles everyday, JUSTLIKE YOU are now!!
And this will go on and on and on and on.... get the picture? Well,
there's 5,000,000,000 people on the world andmost of them will
eventually end up being hooked into the internet.So there are virtually
unlimited resources. Of course this will workthe best at the very
beginning so the faster you post, the better for YOU!So can you afford
$5.00 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 whenthere are tons of new honest users and
new honest works?? I thinkso... People have said, "what if the plan is
played out and no onesends you the money? So what! What are the chances
of that happeningwhen there are tons of new honest users and new honest
people who arejoining the Internet and newsgroups everyday and are
willing togive 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. You just
haveto 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
aneye on the newsgroups to make sure everyone is playing
fairly.Remember, HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. You don't need to cheat
thebasic idea to make the money!!GOOD LUCK to all and please play fairly
and reap the huge rewards fromthis, which is tons of extra CASH. **By
the way, if you try to deceivepeople by posting the messages with your
name in the list and notsending the money to the rest of the people
already on the list, youwill NOT get as much. Someone I talked to knew
someone who did thatand he only made about $150.00, and that's after
seven or eight weeks!Then he sent the 5 $1.00 bills, people added him to
their lists, andin 4-5 weeks he had over $10k. This is the fairest and
most honest wayI have ever seen to share the wealth of the world without
costinganything but our time!!! You also may want to buy mailing and
e-maillists for future dollars.Please remember to declare your extra
income. Thanks once again....
