DO YOU WANT TO MAKE BUCKS FAST???--AND NO ONE LOSES . . .

Of course you do, we all do !!! Here's how to do so with little
effort,
and, yes IT'S LEGAL.

There are those who try and then there are those who don't try.
The ones who try are the successful people in life.
The ones who don't are the ones who are happy with their 9 to 5 jobs
and
don't move ahead.

A while ago, 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 $6.00! So I
thought,
 "Yeah, right, this must be a scam!", but, like most of us, I was
curious;
I kept reading. Anyway, it said that if you send $1.00 to each of the
6
Names and addresses stated 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 200 newsgroups.(There
are
about 22,000.)

No catch, that was it. I came to the conclusion that this could not be
a
scam (but, if it was, only scamed out of $6 , I could afford it.) As a
lawyer I
could not see any legal problems with 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. Just
like you, I was skeptical, or thought it might take too much work.

1. IS THIS REALLY LEGAL??
I called another lawyer first. This lawyer friend was a little
unbelieving
that  I would actually make any money 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. Would the Post Office be ok with this . .  . I called them:
1-800-725-2161 and they confirmed THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! (See Title
18,h
 sections 1302
NS 1341 of Postal Lottery Laws). This clarifies the program of
collecting
names and addresses for a mailing list.

3. Is this moral? Well, everyone who sends me a buck has a good chance
of
 getting A LOT of money . . . a much better chance than buying a
lottery
 ticket!!! In the end it looks to me like no one loses, we help each
other
 move ahead.

So, having these questions answered, I invested EXACTLY $7.92 ... six
$1.00
bills and six 32 cent postage stamps . . . and boy am I glad I did !!!


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 continued coming in. In my first week, I made about $20.00
to $30.00
 dollars. By the end of the second week I had a mad 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 $42,000.00 and
it's still
 coming in . . . It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 stamps !!!

So now I'm reposting this so I can make even more money! (and helping
you
to make a lot of money.) The *ONLY* thing stopping *ANYONE* from
increasing
their own bank account is pure laziness ! It took me all of 5 MINUTES
to print
this out, follow the directions, and begin posting to newsgroups. It
took me a
mere 45 minutes to post to over 200 newsgroups. And for this GRAND
TOTAL
investment of $7.92 (US) and under ONE HOUR of my time, I have reaped
an
 incredible
amount of money --like nothing I've ever even heard of anywhere before
!
  
 Enough said, time to start !

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 when you need it. The process is very simple and consists of
THREE
easy steps:
STEP 1--Send the 6 people on the list a single dollar each.
STEP 2--Put your name and address on the list in position 6.
STEP 3--Post this amended letter to 200 (or more!) Newsgroups.

============
HOW IT WORKS
============

STEP 1:

Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each
piece of paper:

      PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST.
      $1 US DOLLAR PROCESSING FEE IS INCLUDED.

(THIS IS KEY AS THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT LEGAL SINCE YOU ARE PAYING FOR
AND
LATER OFFERING A SERVICE).
 
Now get 6 $1.00 bills and place ONE bill inside EACH of the 6 pieces
of
paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope to prevent
theft/robbery. Then, 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 and a U.S. $1.00 bill. Now send to:

#6 
Mike

Burgettstown, PA  15021

STEP 2: Now delete name #1, move the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5
becomes
4, etc...) and add YOUR name as number 6 on the list. (If you want to
remain
 anonymous, put a nickname, but the address MUST be correct, or you
won't
 receive your dollars in the mail.)

STEP 3: Now post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups.
Remember,
200 postings is just a guideline. The more you post, the more money
you make!

So, you don't know HOW to post in the news groups? Well, do exactly
the
following:

Highlight and COPY(Ctrl-C) the text of this posted message and
PASTE(Ctrl-V) it into a plain text editor (like Wordpad or
WordPerfect) and
 save it. After
you have made the necessary changes that are stated above, simply
select a
 newsgroup then COPY(Ctrl-C) and PASTE(Ctrl-V) the text into the
message
 composition window of the newsgroup, and post it!
newsgroups
if you want help is http://www.liszt.com/ (When you go to the home
page,
click on the link 'Newsgroup Directory'). But I don't think you'll
have any
 problem
 posting because it's very easy once you've found the newsgroups. All
these
web browsers are similar. It doesn't matter which one you have (But it
makes
it very easy if you have Netscape Navigator 3.0 or later. You may
download it
 from the Internet if you don't have it.) You just have to remember
the
basic steps, stated below.

BASIC STEPS FOR POSTING:
1. Find a newsgroup and you click on it.
2. You click on 'POST AN/NEW ARTICLE' or 'TO NEWS' or anything else
similar
to these.
3. You type your flashy headline in the subject box.
4. Now, either you attach the file containing your amended letter, or
you
PASTE the letter.(You have to COPY it from the text editor, of course,
from
before.)
5. Finally, you click on 'SEND' or 'POST' or 'OK', whatever is there.
MAKE!! BUT
 YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**

That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within
day's! 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 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 $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 5
persons
who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my
name at #5
and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5, that is another
$25.00
for me, now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4
and only 5
 replies each, I will bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125
persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and
only
 receive 5
 replies each, I will make an additional $626.00! OK, now here is the
fun
part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with my
name at #2
and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made me $3,125.00!!!
Those
3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my
name at
 #1
and if still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive
$15,625,00!
With a original investment of only $6.00! AMAZING! And as I said 5
responses is
 actually VERY LOW! Average is probable 20 to 30!

So lets put those figures at just 15 responses per person. Here is
what you
 will make:

at #6 $15.00

at #5 $225.00

at #4 $3,375.00

at #3 $50,625.00

at #2 $759,375.00

at #1 $11,390,625.00

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 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. We all just have to be honest and help
each
other get ahead.

** 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 rest of the
people
already on the list, you will NOT get as much. Come on folks, let's
work
 together.
 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 dollars. 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!! Any of us can afford $6! Remember, if we all stay honest
we will
help each other move ahead. I see no losers in this.

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...
=====================================================================
LEGAL ? ? ? (Comments from Bob Novak who started this new version.)
"People
 have asked me if this is really legal. Well, it is! You are using the
Internet to advertise you business. What is that business? You are
assembling 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.

=============================================


PERSONAL NOTE:  I work as a waitress, and I don't have money to waste
on something that I don't think will help me.
                I am willing to take a chance with this.  If you are
too, we can really make some money!  If it doesn't
                work, what have we lost?  Less than 8 dollars! But,
what if it DOES work?  Can you imagine how it would
                feel to see your mailbox filled with money, day after
day?  Think of what you could do with it all:
                pay off bills, put your kids through college, build
your dream home...the possibilities are endless.
                But the very best part would be not having to worry
about your financial situation anymore.  It means
                security and peace of mind, and you can't put a price
on that.

day?  Think of what you could do with it all:
                pay off bills, put your kids through college, build
your dream home...the possibilities are endless.
                But the very best part would be not having to worry
about your financial situation anymore.  It means
                security and peace of mind, and you can't put a price
on that.

DO YOU WANT TO MAKE BUCKS FAST???--AND NO ONE LOSES . . .

Of course you do, we all do !!! Here's how to do so with little
effort,
and, yes IT'S LEGAL.

There are those who try and then there are those who don't try.
The ones who try are the successful people in life.
The ones who don't are the ones who are happy with their 9 to 5 jobs
and
don't move ahead.

A while ago, 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 $6.00! So I
thought,
 "Yeah, right, this must be a scam!", but, like most of us, I was
curious;
I kept reading. Anyway, it said that if you send $1.00 to each of the
6
Names and addresses stated 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 200 newsgroups.(There
are
about 22,000.)

No catch, that was it. I came to the conclusion that this could not be
a
scam (but, if it was, only scamed out of $6 , I could afford it.) As a
lawyer I
could not see any legal problems with 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. Just
like you, I was skeptical, or thought it might take too much work.

1. IS THIS REALLY LEGAL??
I called another lawyer first. This lawyer friend was a little
unbelieving
that  I would actually make any money 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. Would the Post Office be ok with this . .  . I called them:
1-800-725-2161 and they confirmed THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! (See Title
18,h
 sections 1302
NS 1341 of Postal Lottery Laws). This clarifies the program of
collecting
names and addresses for a mailing list.

3. Is this moral? Well, everyone who sends me a buck has a good chance
of
 getting A LOT of money . . . a much better chance than buying a
lottery
 ticket!!! In the end it looks to me like no one loses, we help each
other
 move ahead.

So, having these questions answered, I invested EXACTLY $7.92 ... six
$1.00
bills and six 32 cent postage stamps . . . and boy am I glad I did !!!


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 continued coming in. In my first week, I made about $20.00
to $30.00
 dollars. By the end of the second week I had a mad 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 $42,000.00 and
it's still
 coming in . . . It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 stamps !!!

So now I'm reposting this so I can make even more money! (and helping
you
to make a lot of money.) The *ONLY* thing stopping *ANYONE* from
increasing
their own bank account is pure laziness ! It took me all of 5 MINUTES
to print
this out, follow the directions, and begin posting to newsgroups. It
took me a
mere 45 minutes to post to over 200 newsgroups. And for this GRAND
TOTAL
investment of $7.92 (US) and under ONE HOUR of my time, I have reaped
an
 incredible
amount of money --like nothing I've ever even heard of anywhere before
!
  
 Enough said, time to start !

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 when you need it. The process is very simple and consists of
THREE
easy steps:
STEP 1--Send the 6 people on the list a single dollar each.
STEP 2--Put your name and address on the list in position 6.
STEP 3--Post this amended letter to 200 (or more!) Newsgroups.

============
HOW IT WORKS
============

STEP 1:

Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each
piece of paper:

      PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST.
      $1 US DOLLAR PROCESSING FEE IS INCLUDED.

(THIS IS KEY AS THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT LEGAL SINCE YOU ARE PAYING FOR
AND
LATER OFFERING A SERVICE).
 
Now get 6 $1.00 bills and place ONE bill inside EACH of the 6 pieces
of
paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope to prevent
theft/robbery. Then, 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 and a U.S. $1.00 bill. Now send to:

#6 
Mike
49 Erie Mine Rd.
Burgettstown, PA  15021

STEP 2: Now delete name #1, move the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5
becomes
4, etc...) and add YOUR name as number 6 on the list. (If you want to
remain
 anonymous, put a nickname, but the address MUST be correct, or you
won't
 receive your dollars in the mail.)

STEP 3: Now post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups.
Remember,
200 postings is just a guideline. The more you post, the more money
you make!

So, you don't know HOW to post in the news groups? Well, do exactly
the
following:

Highlight and COPY(Ctrl-C) the text of this posted message and
PASTE(Ctrl-V) it into a plain text editor (like Wordpad or
WordPerfect) and
 save it. After
you have made the necessary changes that are stated above, simply
select a
 newsgroup then COPY(Ctrl-C) and PASTE(Ctrl-V) the text into the
message
 composition window of the newsgroup, and post it!
newsgroups
if you want help is http://www.liszt.com/ (When you go to the home
page,
click on the link 'Newsgroup Directory'). But I don't think you'll
have any
 problem
 posting because it's very easy once you've found the newsgroups. All
these
web browsers are similar. It doesn't matter which one you have (But it
makes
it very easy if you have Netscape Navigator 3.0 or later. You may
download it
 from the Internet if you don't have it.) You just have to remember
the
basic steps, stated below.

BASIC STEPS FOR POSTING:
1. Find a newsgroup and you click on it.
2. You click on 'POST AN/NEW ARTICLE' or 'TO NEWS' or anything else
similar
to these.
3. You type your flashy headline in the subject box.
4. Now, either you attach the file containing your amended letter, or
you
PASTE the letter.(You have to COPY it from the text editor, of course,
from
before.)
5. Finally, you click on 'SEND' or 'POST' or 'OK', whatever is there.
MAKE!! BUT
 YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**

That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within
day's! 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 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 $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 5
persons
who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my
name at #5
and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5, that is another
$25.00
for me, now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4
and only 5
 replies each, I will bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125
persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and
only
 receive 5
 replies each, I will make an additional $626.00! OK, now here is the
fun
part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with my
name at #2
and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made me $3,125.00!!!
Those
3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my
name at
 #1
and if still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive
$15,625,00!
With a original investment of only $6.00! AMAZING! And as I said 5
responses is
 actually VERY LOW! Average is probable 20 to 30!

So lets put those figures at just 15 responses per person. Here is
what you
 will make:

at #6 $15.00

at #5 $225.00

at #4 $3,375.00

at #3 $50,625.00

at #2 $759,375.00

at #1 $11,390,625.00

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 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. We all just have to be honest and help
each
other get ahead.

** 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 rest of the
people
already on the list, you will NOT get as much. Come on folks, let's
work
 together.
 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 dollars. 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!! Any of us can afford $6! Remember, if we all stay honest
we will
help each other move ahead. I see no losers in this.

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...
=====================================================================
LEGAL ? ? ? (Comments from Bob Novak who started this new version.)
"People
 have asked me if this is really legal. Well, it is! You are using the
Internet to advertise you business. What is that business? You are
assembling 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.

=============================================


PERSONAL NOTE:  I work as a waitress, and I don't have money to waste
on something that I don't think will help me.
                I am willing to take a chance with this.  If you are
too, we can really make some money!  If it doesn't
                work, what have we lost?  Less than 8 dollars! But,
what if it DOES work?  Can you imagine how it would
                feel to see your mailbox filled with money, day after
day?  Think of what you could do with it all:
                pay off bills, put your kids through college, build
