!!!!$$$$$$ EASY MONEY, AND IT REALLY WORKS!!!!!!,
TRY IT AND YOU'll BE HAPPY!!!!! :0)

$$$Take five minutes to read this and it WILL change your life.$$$

 I finally decided to read one of these articles in an internet
 newsgroup describing how to make $50,000.00 in only one month from
 a $5.00 investment.

 Of course I thought this was rediculous ,or some type of pyramid.
 I talked it over with my family, an attorney, and my friends, and
 they all agreed it was some sort of scam.I hate scams because
 usually someone gets burned, and I didn't want it to be me!
 I blew it off for a few weeks then saw another one in a
 newsgroup I go to alot and thought, "Maybe this is legitimate!".
 Besides, whats $5.00 , I spend more than that in the morning on
 my way to work on coffee and cigs for the day.


 Well, two weeks later,I began recieving money in the mail!
 I couldn't believe it! Not just a little , I mean big bucks!
 At first only a few hundred dollars, then a week later, a
 couple of thousand , then BOOM . By the end of the fourth
 week , I had recieved nearly $47,000.00. It came from all
 over the world.And every bit of it perfectly legal and on the
 up and up. I've been able to pay off all my bills and still had
 enough left over for a nice vacation for me and my family.

 Not only does it work for me, it works for other folks as well.
 Markus Valppu says he made $57,883 in four weeks.  Dave Manning
 claims he made $53,664 in the same amount of time.  Dan Shepstone
 says it was only $17,000 for him.  Do I know these folks?  No,
 but when I read how they say they did it, it made sense to me.
 Enough sense that I'm taking a similar chance with $5 of my own
money.
 Not a big chance, I admit--but one with incredible potential, because
 $5 is all anyone ever invests in this system.  Period.  That's all
 Markus, Dave, or Dan invested, yet their $5 netted them tens of
thousands
 of dollars each, in a safe, legal, completely legitimate way.
 Here's how it works in 3 easy steps:

STEP 1.

  Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on five seperate
        pieces of paper along with the words:
 "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST."
  (In this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone;  you're
        paying for a legitimate service.)  Fold a $1 bill, money
order, or bank
        note inside each paper, and mail them by standard U. S. Mail
to the following
        five addresses:

 1-  Bill Brown
      148 South Downlen #796
      Beaumont, Tx. 77707

 2-  Marco Monet
      409 N.E. 107 St.
      Miami, Florida, USA 33161

 3- Alain Renaud
     2638 Augustin-Cantin
     Montreal, QC,Canada
     H3K 1E1

 4- Steve Ferguson
     1076 Mystic Lane North
     Troy, OH, USA 45373

 5- Heath Ward
     P.O.Box 2027
     Dodge City, Ks 67801
STEP 2.

    Now remove the top name from the list, and move the
    other names up.This way, #5 becomes #4 and so on.
    Put your name in as the fifth one on the list.


STEP 3.

    Post the article to at least 200 newsgroups. There are at
    least 17000 newsgroups at any given moment in time.
    Try posting to as many newsgroups as you can.Remember
    the more groups you post to, the more people will see your
    article and send you cash!


STEP 4.

    You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing
    returns within 7 to 14 days! Remember, the internet is new
    and huge. There is no way you can lose.

    Now here is how and why this system works:

    Out of every block of 200 posts I made, I got back 5 responses.
    Yes, thats right,only 5. You make $5.00 in cash, not checks or
    money orders, but real cash with your name at #5.

    Each additional person who sent you $1.00 now also makes 200
    additional postings with your name at #4, 1000 postings.On
    average then, 50 people will send you $1.00 with your name at
    #4,....$50.00 in your pocket!

    Now these 50 new people will make 200 postings each with your
    name at #3 or 10,000 postings. Average return, 500 people= $500.
    They make 200 postings each with your name at #2= 100,000
    postings=5000 returns at $1.00 each=$5,000.00 in cash!

    Finally, 5,000 people make 200 postings each with your name at
    #1 and you get a return of $50,000 before your name drops off
    the list.And that's only if everyone down the line makes only 200
    postings each! Your total income for this one cycle is $55,000.

    From time to time when you see your name is no longer on the list,
    you take the latest posting you can find and start all over again.

                The end result depends on you. You must follow through
                and repost this  article everywhere you can think of.
The
                more  postings you  make,  the more  cash  ends  up in
your
                mailbox.   It's too easy and too cheap to pass up!!!

    So thats it. Pretty simple sounding stuff, huh? But believe me, it
    works. There are millions of people surfing the net every day, all
    day, all over the world. And 100,000 new people get on the net
    every day. You know that, you've seen the stories in the paper.
    So, my friend, read and follow the simple instructions and play
    fair. Thats the key, and thats all there is to it.Print this out
    right now so you can refer back to this article easily.Try to keep
    an eye on all the postings you made to make sure everyone is
    playing fairly. You know where your name should be.

                 If you're really not sure or still think this can't
be for real, then
                don't do it. But please print this article and pass it
along to
                someone you know who really needs the money, and see
                what happens.



                TRY IT AND YOU'LL BE HAPPY!!!  :o) !!!!!!!!!!

THIS ABSOLUTLY IS THE FAIREST AND MOST HONEST WAY TO SHARE WEALTH!!

HELLO!!

Would you like to make thousands of dollars, quick and legally? Than
take
5 minutes to read this article, it's going to change our life! What is 5 
minutes of the life that you now have. Are you just snoozing,doing the
same
old thing? YOU WANT CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE OR GET BACK THE CONTROL YOU 
ONCE HAD? YOU WANT FINANCIAL FREEDOM???????? 

THAN YOU SHOULD ABSOLUTLY READ ARTICLE!!!  IT'S TRUE!!

You can make up to or over $50,000.00 in 4 to 6 weeks, maybe sooner! 
Keep reading if you want to take control of your life, if not, than have 
a great day. For those who are inerested, please keep on reading.

One day I was browsing thru the newsgroups and read an article like this
one. Since it that to do with making money, I was courious and decided
to give it a try, and this is what it said:
Here we go. 

A little while back, I was browsing through these newsgroups, just like
you 
are now and came across an article similar to this one that said you
could 
make thousands of dollars in just weeks, with only an initial investment
of 
$5.00! 
So, I thought, "Yeah, right,it's got to be a scam", but I was curious, 
like most of us, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 
to each of the 5 names and addresses stated in the article. You then
place 
your own name and address in the article at the bottom of the list at
#5, 
and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups (there are over 22,00). 
So after thinking about it, and talking to my wife about it, who said I 
was nuts!, what does she know, I'am nuts anyway, I figured what else was 
I doing, and it's only 5 stamps and $5.00, right? Someone who has tried 
it says:
 
"I started receiving money in the mail! I was shocked! I still figured 
it would end soon, and didn't give it another thought. But then money
kept 
coming in, tripling in size and multipying by 10 -20 times the amount 
that I got the first week! In my first week I had made about 30 -40
dollars.
But by 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 my fourth week and I've made about $42,000.00 TOTAL, and the 
money is still coming in.......". Let me tell how this works and most 
importantly, why it works.....also make sure you print a copy of the 
article NOW, so you get the information off of it, and begin making
money. 
The process is very simple, and it consists of 3 EASY steps:

STEP 1: Get 6 seperate pieces of paper and write the following on each
sheet of paper........ 
                       " PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST."

It is also a good idea to put on that piece of paper the number of
persons
who you got the article from. Get five $1 dollar bills and place ONE
inside 
each piece of paper that you just wrote on,and fold each piece of paper
so 
the bill will not be seen in the envelope (other wise nosey people who 
like to steal envelopes with money in it will get yours). Put one paper 
inside the envelope and seal it.
 
Do the same for all 5, you should now have 5 envelopes sealed, EACH 
have a piece of paper and a $1 dollar bill stuffed inside of the paper. 
Make sure those words that were stated above are on each paper. 
This is a service an 100% legal (refer to US CODE Title 18, 
Section 130& 1342, and Title 39, Section 3005, of the Postal and 
Lottery Laws).

NOW, BE SURE TO MAIL THE 5 ENVELOPES WITH THE PAPER AND $1.00 TO THE 
FOLLOWING 5 ADDRESSES:

1. Harvey Hebert 2542 Babcock Rd. Apt. 206 San Antonio TX 78229

2. Roland Lafontaine 2233 Jeanne Dr. Hastings Michigan 49058

3. Carl Fodor RD1 Box Y1.E.5 Weirtin W.Va 26062

4. Bob Manuel PO Box 1255 Providence, RI 02901

5. Lawrence Sarrasin 50 Lower college RD UE 2922 Kingston, RI 02881


STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the 
other 4 names up (5 becoming 4, 4 becoming 3, 3 becoming 2, ETC.) 
You can slightly alter this article if you need to, editing what you 
need to edit.

STEP3:  Post your amended article (with your name at #5) to at least 
200 newsgroups. There are at least 22,000 of them). All you need is say, 
at least 200.
 
HOW TO DO THIS:
 
If you have Netscape 3.0 do EXACTLY the following:
        1) Click on any newsgroup like normal, THEN click 'TO NEWS', 
        which is on the far left when you're at the newsgroups page.
        This will bring down a WINDOW to type your message in. 

        2) Leave the newsgroup WINDOW like it is, CHANGE the subject box 
        to something flashy like, "NEED CASH" $$$$ or READ HERE $$$$.

        3) Tab once and you should be ready to type. Now, retype (only
once)
        This whole article WORD FOR WORD, except to insert your name at 
        #5, and to remove #1 off the list.

        4) When you're done typing the Whole article, click on FILE in 
        THIS WINDOW, RIGHT ABOVE SEND, NOT WHERE IT SAYS NETSCAPE NEWS 
        ON THE FIRST WINDOW.  Click on SAVE AS when you're under FILE. 
        Save your article as a  text file to your C: or A: drive. 
        DO NOT SEND OR POST YOUR ARTICLE UNTIL YOU SAVE IT. 
        ONCE SAVED, move to 5 below.

        5) If you still have all of your text, send or post it to this
        newsgroup now, by just clicking send, which is right below FILE,
        and right above Cc:.

        6) Here's where you're going to post all 200.
        OK, click on any newsgroup the click on 'TO NEWS', again in the 
        top left corner. Leave the NEWSGROUPS BOX alone again, put a 
        flashy subject title in the SUBJECT BOX, hit the TAB once you're 
        in the body of the message, and then click on ATTACHMENTS, which 
        is below the SUBJECT BOX. You will get another WINDOW to come
up.
        Click on ATTACH FILE, then find YOUR file that you saved; Click 
        once on the file, and then Click OPEN, now Click OK; if you did 
        this right, you should see YOUR file name in the attachments
box, 
        and it will be shaded.  

   
********************************************************************* 

        IF YOU USE IE EXPLORER IT'S JUST AS EASY...
        HOLDING DOWN THE LEFT MOUSE BUTTON HIGHTLIGHT THIS ARTICLE.
        THEN PRESS THE "CRTL" KEY AND THE "C" KEY AT THE SAME TIME TO 
        COPY THIS ARTICLE. THEN PRINT THIS ARTICLE (FOR YOUR RECORDS) TO 
        HAVE THE NAMES OF THOSE YOU WILL BE SENDING $1 BILLS TO.  NEXT
GO 
        TO THE NEWSGROUPS AND PRESS "POST AN ARTICLE" A WINDOW  WILL
OPEN. 
        TYPE IN YOUR HEADLINE IN THE SUBJECT AREA AND THEN CLICK IN THE 
        LARGE WINDOW BELOW. PRESS "CRTL" AND THEN "V" AND THE ARTICLE
WILL 
        BE PLACED IN THE WINDOW. IF YOU WANT TO EDIT THE ARTICLE, DO SO 
        AND THEN HIGHTLIGHT AND COPY IT AGAIN. NOW EVERY TIME YOU POST 
        THE ARTICLE IN A NEWSGROUP, ALL YOU HAVE TO REPEAT "CTRL" AND
"V" 
        AND PRESS POST.

        7) That's it. Each time you do this, all you have to do is type 
        in a different Newsgroup, so that way, it posts to 200 DIFFERENT
        Newsgroups, you see?        
        Now you just have 199 to go!!   
        (Don't worry, each one takes about 30 sec.,once you get used to
it)
        REMEMBER 200 is the MINIMUM. 
        The more you post the more money you will make!!!        
        AND THAT'S IT!!!!
 
THAT"S THE ONLY 3 STEPS THERE IS!!!!!!!!! You are now in the mail order 
business and will start receiving your $1.00 envelopes from vaious 
people all over the world within days!!!!!! JUST REMEMBER THE MORE 
NEWSGROUPS YOU POST TO, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE!!!
If you wish to stay anonymous, you can come up with a name, such 
as"manager" or "investor". Just make sure all the addresses are CORRECT. 
LET ME TELL YOU WHY THIS SYSTEM WORKS SO WELL!!! 
Out of every 200 postings, let's say I ONLY receive 5 replies, which is 
actually very low. So I made $5.00 with my name at #4.
Now then, each person who just sent me $1.00 makes say only 200
postings, 
now with your name at #4, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF 1000 POSTINGS, not 
including yours too. Now 50 people send you $1.00; that's $50.00 you 
just made! Now then your new 50 agents post 200 each with your name at
#2, 
or 10,000 POSTINGS(50x200). 
Average return is 500 at $1.00 each is $500.00!!! 
And finally, 5,000 people make 200 Postings each with your name at #1. 
you now get a return of $50,000.00 before your name drops off the list. 
And that's if everyone makes 200 Postings only, and if only 5 persons 
respond!!!! When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the 
latest posting that is appearing in the Newsgroups, and send out 
another $5.00 to the names on the list, putting your name at #6 again. 
And start posting again. The most important thing to remember is, to 
realize that there are THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD 
JOINING THE INTERNET EVERYDAY, THE EXPOSURE IS UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!
So, can YOU afford $5.00 and see if it really works? I did, and I 
think you can too.
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE AND MAKE SOME REAL MONEY, THIS IS THE
WAY!!!!!!
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 MILLIONS of HONEST USERS AND 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, everyday, 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 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 HONESTLY 
IS THE BEST POLICY. 
YOU DON'T NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE MONEY!!!!!
GOOD LUCK TO ALL AND PLEASE PLAY FAIRLY AND TOGETHER, 
WE WILL PROSPER!!!!!!
**** By the way, if you try to decieve people by posting the messages 
with your name on the list and not sending the money to the people 
already on the list, you will not get much. Someone who did that 
made $150.00, and that's AFTER 7 or 8 weeks!
Then he sent the 5 $1.00 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 
4 to 5 weeks, he had received over $10,000.00 
THIS IS THE FAIREST AND MOST HONEST WAY I HAVE EVER SEEN TO SHARE THE 
WEALTH OF THE WORLD WITHOUT COSTING ANYTHING BUT YOUR TIME!!!!!





NOT BAD FOR FINANCIAL FREEDOM!!!!!!!
IF YOU DON'T TRY IT, YOU'LL NEVER KNOW.IT DOES GENUINIELY WORK!!!!!
