TAKE THE TIME TO READ

Want to make MONEY fast?  These next few minutes will change your LIFE...


A little while back, I was browsing, 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 $5.00!!!  So I
though, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam," like most of us, 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 at the bottom of the list
(Position 5), and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups (there are
thousands).  No catch, that was it.  So after thinking it over, and
talking to a few people first, I tried it.  I figured what have I got to
lost except 5 stamps and $5.00, right?

Like most of us, I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the
legal aspects of it all.  So, I checked it out with the U.S. Postal Office
(1.800.725.2161), and they confirmed that it is indeed legal!!!  Then I
invested the measly $5.00.  I spent more than that on the lottery!!!

Well GUESS WHAT?  Within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail!!!  I
was shocked!  Still, I figured that it would end soon, and I didn't give
it another thought.  But the money just kept coming in.  I spent more than
that on the lottery!

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 of it as you need it.  The process is very simple and consists
of 3 easy steps:

STEP 1:  Get 5 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each
piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST."  Now, get 5 $1.00
bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 5 pieces of paper so the bill will
not be seen through the envelopes to prevent thievery.  Next, place a
SINGLE piece of paper in EACH of the 5 envelopes.  Seal each of the
envelopes.  You should now have 5 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of
paper stating the above phrase and a $1.00 bill.  What you are doing is
creating a service by this.  THIS IS PERFECTLY LEGAL!
Mail the 5 envelopes to the following addresses:




#1 Occupant
 P.O. Box 348
 Langrangeville, NY  12540

#2 Darren Stewart
 3529 Clinton Ave.
 Santa Clara, CA  95051

#3 D. R. P.
 13567 Ramsdell Dr.
 Moreno Valley, CA  92553
 
#4      C.R.P.
        5220 Beard Ave. S.
        Minneapolis, MN 55410

#5      C Racey
        121 The Oval, Brough,
        Hull, East Yorkshire
        HU15 1DD
        ENGLAND        
         
STEP 2:  Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the
other names up (5 becomes 4, 4 becomes 3, etc...) and add YOUR Name as
number 5 on the list.

STEP 3:  Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as
close to the original as possible.  Now, post your mended article to at
least 200 newsgroups.  (I think that there are close to 18,000 groups now)
All you need is 200, but, remember, the more you post, the more money you
make!  Don't know how to post in the newsgroups?  Well, do exactly the
following:

FOR NETSCAPE USERS;

 1) Click on any newsgroups, like normal.  Then click on "To News,"
which is in the top left corner of the newsgroups page.  This will bring
up a message box.  
 
 2)  Fill in the SUBJECT with a flashy title, like the one I used,
something to catch the eye!

 3)  Now go to the message part of the box and retype this letter
exactly as it is here, with exception to your few changes.  (remember to
add your name to number 5 and move the rest up)

 4)  When you're done typing in the WHOLE letter, click on 'FILE'
above the send button.  Then, 'SAVE AS.'  DO NOT SEND YOUR ARTICLE UNTIL
YOU SAVE IT (so you don't have to type this 200 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 where you post all 200!  OK, go to ANY newsgroup
article 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 right below the 'SUBJECT BOX.'  Click
on attach file then find your letter 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.
NOW POST AWAY!!!

IF YOU'RE USING INTERNET EXPLORER:

 It's just as easy, holding down the left mouse button, highlight
the entire article, then press the 'CTRL' key and 'C' key at the same time
to copy this article.  Then print the article for your records to have the
names of those you will be sending $1.00 to.
 Next, go to the newsgroups and press 'POST AN ARTICLE' type in
your flashy subject and click the large window below.  Press 'CTRL' and
'V' and the article will appear in the message window.  **BE SURE TO MAKE
YOUR ADDRESS CHANGES TO THE 5 NAMES.**  Now, re-highlight the article and
re-copy it so you have the changes....then all you have to do for each
newsgroup is 'CTRL' and 'V' and press 'POST.'  It's that easy!

THAT'S IT!  All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post
away, after you get the hang of it, it will take about 30 seconds for each
newsgroup!  **REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY
YOU WILL MAKE!  BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**

That's it!  You will begin receiving money from around the world within
days!  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 the #5 position on the
letter.  Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 makes the
MINIMUM 200 postings with my name at the #4 position  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 postings with my name at the #3 position
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 the
#2 position and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an additional
$625.00!  OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a
MINIMUM 200 letters with my name #1 and they each only receive 5 replies,
that just made me $3,125.00!  With an original investment of only $5.00!
AMAZING!  YOU MUST CAPITALIZE ON THIS NOW!  And as I said, 5 responses is
actually an atypically low amount!  On average, one can expect 20 to 30
responses!  So, let's put those figures at just 15 responses per person.
Here is what you will make:

 @#5 = $15.00
 @#4 = $225.00
 @#3 = $3,375.00
 @#2 = $50, 625.00
 @#1 = $759, 375.00

When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest pending
posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $5.00 to names on the
list, putting your name at number 5 again.  And start posting again.  The
thing to remember is:  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 $5.00 and see if it really works?  I hope
you do...  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 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, everyday, with thousands of
those joining the actual internet.  Remember, play FAIRLY AND HONESTLY and
this will work for you.  You just have to be HONEST.  Make sure you print
this article out RIGHT NOW.  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 that HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.  You don't need
to cheat.  The basic idea is to MAKE THE MONEY!!

Good Luck to all and please play fairly, doing so will allow you to reap
the huge rewards from this simple, yet, effective means of making extra
CASH.  **By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the mess with
your name in the list and not sending the money to the rest of the people
on the list, you will NOT get as much.  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 5 $1.00 bills, people added him to their
lists, and within 4 weeks, he had over $10,000.00.  This is the fairest
and most honest way I have ever seen to share the wealth of the world
costing nothing but our time!!! You may also want to put mailing and
e-mail lists for future dollars.

Please remember to declare your extra income.  Thanks once again....
