Please take a minute to read this and REALLY THINK ABOUT IT, IT WORKS! This program is about financial freedom. If you are interested, read on, if not, send it to a friend who might be. Please download and print this article and give it to someone, off-line, that may wish to take advantage. To show my sincerity pertaining to my past success of this program, I have included my E-Mail address to answer any questions and/or help anyone with the program. By the way, nobody else is doing this! My E-Mail address is: ins...@usit.net After being layed of my job of 17 years, I soon found that it was impossible for me to replace the $55,000 per year income I had become accustomed to. Searching the classifieds everyday in the newspaper, what I found was many minimum wage or sales jobs offering commission only, but nothing that I had trained for the past 17 years. I lost my home to foreclosure, one of my cars to the repo man and had my telephone disconnected by MaBell. Living in a small efficiency apartment 3 blocks from the public library, I walked there each morning to search the want ads in the newspaper, and would use the licomputer to search for work on the internet. I was browsing through the newsgroups and came across an article similar to this that said "You can make thousands of dollars in a few weeks with an initial investment of $5." I might have been born in the morning, but it wasn't yesterday morning! I knew this had to be a scam. But, I kept seeing the article in many newsgroups, so I was curious. Anyway, it said to send $1 to each of the 5 names and addresses listed on the bottom of the list, then place my name in the 5th position, then post the article in at least 250 newgroups or send mail to at least 250 people (there are thousands). there was no catch, that was it! At that time, $5.00 was like $10,000 is to me today. But I figured, that equalled a day of bus fares going on job interviews, and I had not found a job yet, so why not? I decided to give it a try. THANK GOD, I decided to try!! But, first, I wanted to check the legality of the program, as I was in no position to have legal problems. I talked with the U.S. Post Office and found that this program indeed IS LEGAL. It is covered in Title 18, section 1302 of the Postal and Lottery laws. Don't believe me? Check it out for yourself! The number to call is 1-800-725-2161. After getting started, guess what? Within 7 days, I started getting some response in the mail! I was shocked. I was still cynical, and figured it would not amount to anything, and really didn't give it much more thought. But, the MONEY kept coming in, literally tripling in size and multiplying by 10-20 times the amount I got in the first week! The first week, I made $73, but by the end of the second week, I had a total of $1,031! In the third week, I had $10,212, and it was still growing! This is my fourth week, and I've made close to $44,000, and those wonderful envelopes are still coming in!! My total investment was $6.60, plus envelopes. Let me tell you how this works and more important, WHY IT WORKS! Again, make sure you PRINT A COPY of this article NOW, so you can get the information off it as you need it. The process is very, very simple and consists of 3 easy steps: STEP 1: Get 5 seperate sheets of paper and write these words on each sheet: PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST (this way, you are not just sending a dollar to someone, you are paying for a legitimate service, and staying within the guidelines of the law). Now, get 5 $1.00 bills (U.S. Dollar Bills ONLY please, to maintain uniformity) and place ONE inside EACH of the sheets of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope, to prevent thievery. I recommend a woven envelope, as they are difficult to see through and work best. Be sure and include your address and let each person know which cycle he is receiving the $1.00 from. When you start receiving your mail, make sure you retain EVERY name and address sent to you. You can do this either on your computer or by keeping a hard copy, but do not discard the names that you receive. This is your PROOF that you are providing a service, and should you ever be questioned about your business, you will then be able to provide this proof. After you have folded the 5 one dollar bills, place them between the sheets of paper, insert each sheet, along with the one dollar bill into a seperate envelope (5 one dollar bills, 5 seperate envelopes) then seal the envelopes. Now, address each of the 5 envelopes with the following 5 names and addresses, and mail them, standard mail: 1) Tina Westbrook 2413 E. Broadway #145 maryville, TN. 37804 2) Dave Mathews 216 N 41st Springfield, Ore 97478 3) Anwar Mai 1927 Benton Lane Novato, CA 94945 4) Narres Battad 2503 Oxford Street Vancouver, BC V5k-1m9, Canada 5) Alan Roseberry P.O. Box 236 Berlin, MA 01503 STEP 2: Now remove the top name (#1) from the list, and move the other names up 1 position. This way, #5 becomes #4, #4 becomes #3 and so on. Place your name in the #5 position on the list. STEP 3: DO NOT CHANGE anything on this article, with only one exception. That is adding your name in the #5 position and moving the other names up. this program WORKS and if you make changes, revisions, etc., you are gambling with your results. At this time, post the article (with your name added) to AT LEAST 250 newsgroups. There are over 30,000 newsgroups, so selecting 250 will be no problem. Remember: the MORE you POST the MORE you will MAKE! Don't know how to post in the newsgroups? Simply follow these easy steps: FOR NETSCAPE USERS- 1) Click on any newsgroup, like normal. Then, click on 'TO NEWS' which you will find in the top left corner of the newsgroup page. This will bring up a message box. 2) Fill in the SUBJECT, using a flashy title, like the one I used, that will catch the eye. 3) Go to the message part of the box and retype this article EXACTLY as it is here, again, the only exception being your name added to the #5 position (and remember to move the other names up on the list). 4) When you are finished typing in the WHOLE article, click on 'FILE' above the send button. then, 'SAVE AS'. DO NOT SEND YOUR ARTICLE UNTIL YOU HAVE SAVED IT!!! (this is so you don't have to type this 250 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 how you post all 250 articles. Now, go to any newsgroup 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 directly below the 'SUBJECT BOX'. Click on attach file then find your article 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. CONGRATULATIONS!! You now have an exciting, new business, where the financial rewards will absolutely stagger you. You will start receiving your envelopes from around the world within days! What kind of money can you expect to see? That is totally dependent upon YOU! If you keep the article EXACTLY as it is here (the only exception in placing your name in the #5 position and moving the other names up) and you post this article in AT LEAST 250 newsgroups, sit back - and relax 0 because your ship is about to come in. But specifically, the money... For illustration purposes let's say that out of 250 postings you only receive 6 replies (again, this is for illustration purposes only...the lowest response I have seen to date is 4.25% response!). So, you have just made $6.00 with your name in the #5 position. Now, each of the 6 persons who just sent you $1.00 make the MINIMUM 250 postings, each with your name in the #4 position and only 6 people respond to each of the original 5, that is another $30.00 for you. Now, those 30 EACH make 250 MINIMUM postings, with your name in the #3 position, you will bring in an additional $150.00. those 125 persons, will then turn around and post the MINIMUM 250 articles with your name at #2 and receive only 6 replies each, you make an additional $750.00! Let's get ready for the fun part, because each of those 750 persons post a MINIMUM 250 articles with your name at #1, and they receive only 6 replies, they just made you $4,688.00! Remember, this is with an original investment of $6.60! Are we excited yet? As I said earlier, 6 responses is actually VERY LOW. Like I said, the least response I have seen to date is 4.25%, with my average right at 7%! Let's look at the number with my average of 7%...that equates to 18 responses per person. Look at these numbers, and you will see why I am so excited: at #5 - $18.00 at #4 - $324.00 at #3 - $5,832.00 at #2 - $104,976.00 at #1 - $1,889,568.00 When your name moves off the list, just take the latest posting, and send out another $5.00 to the names on the list, placing your name in the #5 position again. Then start posting. REMEMBER 250 MINIMUM! Keep in mind there are over 60 million internet users world-wide and that number increases at the rate of 50,000 per day! Hundreds of thousands of people read these articles every minute of every day, just like you are now. Don't you think you might be able to help some of these people get out of debt, while helping yourself at the same time? YOU CANNOT and WILL NOT LOSE, the numbers and my bank account DON'T LIE!! ONE LAST THING... No matter how much debt we owe, no matter how bad our situation might seem, always, always, ALWAYS REMEMBER there are many, many people out there far less fortunate than us. As your cash-flow starts to build, please consider tithing a percentage of your new found wealth to your church or some worthwhile charity. By doing this, you will help many people, and your life will be enriched as a result. Remember, HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY! You do not need to cheat to make money. Play Fair! Play by the Rules! Keep track of your weekly earnings. After you post this article and should you catch someone placing their name on the list and not sending you the dollar, E-Mail me with the details and I will take steps to have that posting removed! Print this article RIGHT NOW, and keep a list of all those who send you money. Keep an eye on the newsgroups to make sure everyone is playing fairly. Again, HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY!!! GOD BLESS and GOOD LUCK </P> </BODY> </HTML>
