Thank you for allowing me just a moment of your time. It will be worth
it...I swear!
How many times have you blown $5.00 on your way to work? 
On a paper, coffee and cigarettes? 
So why not take a chance on this? It's fast, it's easy, and it's fun
to wait and see what kind of results you'll get. I did it making a bet
with myself, that it was a joke and I'd never see a single return. 
I was SO wrong. The results were incredible. 
Most of the returns were probably from people just like me that said,
"What the hell, It's 5 bucks and a few minutes, What have I got to
lose?" 
I can answer that now. You have nothing to lose and the chance 
to gain a lot. 
Results, of course, will vary, but even at a minimum, it's a trip.
So PLEASE, just try it...and watch what happens.
Just follow these steps exactly...and then just forget about it...You
will be so amazed when the first letter comes back to you.

STEP 1.

(This is much easier if you print this out before you start, if
possible.)
Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on 5 separate pieces
of paper, along with the words: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST"
(By doing this, you are not just sending someone a dollar, you are
paying for a legitimate service.) Fold a $1 bill inside each piece of
paper, and mail the, by standard US Mail to the following five
addresses:

1- Alberta Right
    1409 Ranchita Dr.
     Los Altos, Ca. 94024

2- Sam Choice
    25550 Buckthorn Ridge Rd.
    Pioneer, Ca. 95666

3- Peg Vickmore
    14905 Highway 88
    Jackson, Ca. 95642

4- Brian Hyson
    4278 Sayoko Cr
    San Jose, Ca. 95136-2335

5- George Miller
    6839 US 221 S.
    Mooresboro, NC. 28114

STEP 2.

Now remove the name in the number 1 position on the list, and move the
other names up. This way, #5 becomes #4 and so on. Add your name and
address to the number 5 position on the list.

STEP 3.

Post the article to "at least" 250 newsgroups. And remember, the more
that you post in, the more people will see it, and the more
possibilities you now have of responses. There are at least 30,000
newsgroups at any given moment, so spread them around.

STEP 4.

You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing returns
in 7-14 days! Remember, the internet is new and huge...with more
people signing on EVERY day. There is no way you can lose.

Now here is a little information on how and why this system works:

Out of every block of 250 posts you make, you get back between 5-15
dollars. I know, it doesn't sound like much, BUT, you have made back
what you put into it and have started the ball rolling with your name
now in spot number five. And this is not checks or money orders...but
cash money.

Each additional person who sent you $1, now also makes 250 postings
with your name now at position number four...so now that's 1000
postings with your name at number four. On average, 50 people will
send $1...so that's $50.00 more dollars to you!

Now these 50 people will post 250 times with your name at number 3,
which is 10,000 postings. Average return is 500 people or $500.00
dollars. They make 250 postings each with your name at number 2 and
that equals 100,000 postings or $5,000.00 dollars cash money!

Finally, 5,000 people make 250 postings, with your name at #1 and you
get a return of $60,000 dollars before your name drops off the list.
And that's if they ONLY post 250. If more are posted...the averages go
up!!!

From time to time, you will see your name has dropped off the list,
then you can take the latest one and start again. Trust me, you will.
I am on my third go around. 

	The end result depends on you! You MUST follow through with 	
              the reposting of this article anywhere you can think of.

              The more postings you make, the better we ALL do. This 
               is TOO easy and TOO cheap not to give it a shot!

So that's it...Sounds to easy...I know. But there are millions of
people surfing the net, every day, all day, all over the world.
So..gentle readers and doubting Thomas' read and follow these simple
steps and play fair. If you don't think it's for real, then pass it
along to a friend that isn't afraid to take a chance. 

REMEMBER: HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. YOU DON'T NEED TO CHEAT THE
BASIC IDEA TO MAKE THE BUCKS. I have seen people that tried to just
place their name on the list and not send the cash..they made about
100 dollars after 3 months...then tried sending out the money and in
4-5 weeks had received over $10,000 dollars.

GOOD LUCK!!! I wish I could be there to see your face when you opened
the mailbox and got your first reply...It's really cool...:)
