SUPPLEMENT YOUR INCOME

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

I'm going to keep this short and simple.  

You want to make easy money.  So do thousands of other people, myself 
included.  

While surfing the web, I came across this scheme... how it works... you 
simply send $1.00 each to 5 people, add your name to the list after 
bumping off the first persons name (so it always stays at 5 people/$5.00) 
and repost the list, this time with your name.  Well, wherever I saw this 
scheme, it was padded with pages of drivel about "I earned $50 000.00 in 6 
weeks" .  Sure, I thought to myself, I can just see it, you waited until 
you earned $50 000.00 before you reposted this ad with your name... what 
crap! I mean, how did you earn those $50 000.00 in the first place, if 
you're only posting now?  A lure, of course, is all these posts are.

So I'm telling you... I haven't earned a cent from this scheme... not yet, 
anyway.  But I'm hoping to... because in spite of all the bullshit 
surrounding it, the basic scheme is pretty sound... for a paltry $5.00 you 
stand to reap big rewards.  I have, right here, five $1.00 notes which are 
going to be posted off tomorrow afternoon to the five names on the list I 
got off the newsgroup... so somewhere, 5 people who took a chance on this 
are each getting $1.00 from me... and how many dollars are they getting 
from other people just like me?

For just $5.00 I'm certainly willing to take a gamble; if it doesn't work 
out, I'll hardly miss the $5.00!!  Yet, if it does work out... WOW!!

You see, what makes this scheme so workable is that EVERYONE can afford 
those $5.00...  

So, if you want to take a chance too, if you also feel that $5.00 is very 
little to lose in the face of such a potentially huge gain (I mean, just 
think about the POTENTIAL of this!), then read on for the instructions! 
And hey... the over-enthusiastic drivel is not mine, I did a cut-and-paste 
!! :-)

My only "sales-pitch" for this scheme is... I'm doing it... so how many 
other people are doing it too?  Makes you think, doesn't it??

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------

First, why don't you save this to your harddrive so you have it as a handy 
reference?


INSTRUCTIONS:

1.  Take a sheet of paper and write on it the following:

          "Please add my name to your list".  

This creates a service out of this money making system and thus making it 
completely legal. You are not just randomly sending a dollar to someone, 
you are paying one dollar for a legitimate service.  Make sure  you 
include your name and address.  I assure you that,  again,  this is 
completely legal!  For a neat little twist, also write what slot their 
name was in: "You were in slot 3",  Just to add a little fun!  This is all 
about having fun and making money at the same time!

2.  Now fold this sheet of paper around a dollar bill ,(no checks or money 
orders), and put each dollar into a separate envelope and send it on its 
way to the five people listed.  The folding of the paper around the bill 
will insure its arrival to its recipient. THIS STEP IS IMPORTANT!!

Here are the five people:

 
 1. Shane Uhlir
     121 S. Beltwoods Dr.
     DeSoto, TX 75115

 2. Sandy Kim
     3047 David Ave #10
     Campbell, CA 95128

 3. Kevin Warkentin           
     1709 Ulex
     McAllen, TX 78504
   
 4. Adam Lasswell
     903 W. Perrine St.
     Johnston City, IL 62951 

5. K. Lee
    P O Box 176
    Umdloti Beach, 4350
    Durban, Natal,
    South Africa

3.  Now listen carefully, here's where you get YOUR MONEY COMING TO YOUR 
MAILBOX.   

* Look at the list of five people;  remove the first name from position 
one 
* move everyone on the list up slot one on the list.  Position 2 name will 
now move to the position 1 slot ,       position 3 will now become 
position 2, 4 will be be 3, 5 wil be 4.
* Now put your name, address, zipcode AND COUNTRY in position 5, the 
bottom position on the list.

So, your post will now look like this:

1.  Sandy Kim
     3047 David Ave #10
     Campbell, CA 95128

2.  Kevin Warkentin           
     1709 Ulex
     McAllen, TX 78504
   
 3. Adam Lasswell
     903 W. Perrine St.
     Johnston City, IL 62951 

4. K. Lee
    P O Box 176
    Umdloti Beach, 4350
    Durban, Natal,
    South Africa

5.  YOUR NAME & ADDRESS

(do you see what happens??  As your name gets moved up the list, so you 
will get more $$$!!)


4.  Now upload this updated file to as many newsgroups and local bulletin 
boards' message areas & file section as possible.   (see the bottom of 
this post for instructions on uploading if you don't know how)

Give a catchy description of the file so it gets noticed!!  Such as: "NEED 
FAST CASH?, HERE IT IS!" or "NEED CASH TO PAY OFF YOUR DEBTS??",  etc.  

And the more uploads, the more money you will make, and of course, the 
more money the others on the list will make too. 

LET'S ALL TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER BY BEING HONEST AND BY PUTTING FORTH 120 
PERCENT INTO THIS PROFITABLE & AMAZING SYSTEM!!! You'll reap the benefits, 
believe me!!! 

6.  And this is the step I like.  JUST SIT BACK AND ENJOY LIFE BECAUSE 
CASH IS ON THE WAY!!  Expect to see a little money start to trickle in 
around 2 weeks, but AT ABOUT WEEKS 3 & 4, THE MONEY STORM WILL HIT YOUR 
MAILBOX!! All you have to do is take it out of the
mailbox and try not to scream too loud (outside anyway) when you realize 
YOU HIT THE BIG TIME AT LAST!!

7.  So go PAY OFF YOUR BILLS AND DEBTS and then get that something special 
you always wanted or buy that special person in your life (or the one you 
want in your life)  a gift they'll never forget.  ENJOY LIFE!

8.  Now when you get low on this money supply,  simply re-activate this 
file again; Reposting it in the old places where you originally posted and 
possibly some new places you now know of. Don't ever lose this file, 
always keep a copy at your reach for when you ever need
cash.  THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE TOOL THAT YOU CAN ALWAYS RE-USE TIME AND TIME 
AGAIN WHEN CASH IS NEEDED!

REMEMBER:

This scheme depends on two things only...  YOUR honesty in sending the $$, 
and  YOUR commitment to reposting this as many times as you can!
