The logic of it is sound and the more people who do this, the more it'll
work.

NOT ILLEGAL - NOT A CHAIN LETTER - PERFECTLY LEGITIMATE.

This is a chance for people who have never had a decent break
to help one another.  If you are not interested, then don't
participate, but please print this article and pass it on to
someone who may be interested, so they can take advantage of
this opportunity.

The procedure is simple:

1) Write your name and address on 5 sheets of paper.
   Below that, write the words, "Please add me to your
   mailing list."  Fold a $1 bill in each piece of paper
   and mail them to the following 5 addresses:

  
  1. Daniel Grib
      44 Queen Ave.
      Enola, PA  17025

   2. Daniel Sutherland
      20 Greenville Drv, Grovedale,
      Geelong, VIC 3216

   3. Thomas Andersson
        Ringvagen 43
        Stockholm
        SWEDEN

    4. Per Hellberg
         Poste Restante
         34220 Alvesta
         SWEDEN

     5. Aga
         71 Sydney Road
         Sutton
         Surrey
         ENGLAND

2) Now remove the top name from the list, and move the other
   four names up. In other words, #5 becomes #4 and so on.
   Put your name as the fifth one on the list. Use a simple
   text editor such as Notepad, in your "accessories" window
   (If you have MS-Windows), or DOS editor.  In fact, any
   editor will do.

3) Post the article to at least 200 newsgroups.  There are
   17,000, so it shouldn't be hard to find 200.  Try posting
   to as many newsgroups as you can, and the bigger the
   newsgroup is, the more people are to see your message!

You are now in the mail order investment business, and
should start seeing returns within a week or two. Of course,
the more newsgroups you post to, the greater your return is.
If you wish to remain anonymous, you may use a psuedonym,
call yourself "The Manager","The Boss", whatever, but make
sure your address is correct.

Now, here is why the system works:

- Of every 200 posts I made, I received 5 responses. Yes,
  only 5.  You make $5 for every 200 posts with your name at #5.

- Each person who sent you $1 now also makes 200 additional
  postings with your name at #4, i.e. 1,000 postings.  On average,
  therefore, 50 people will send you $1 with your name at #4.
  Average return with 50 people = $50.

- Your 50 new agents make 200 postings each with your name at
  #3 or 10,000 postings. Average return 500 people = $500.

- They make 200 postings each with your name at #2, which is
  100,000 postings.  Average return is 5,000 at $1 each = $5,000.

- Finally, 5,000 people make 200 postings with your name at
  #1 and you get a return of $50,000 before your name drops
  off the list, AND THAT IS IF EVERYONE DOWN THE LINE
  MAKES 200 POSTINGS!  Total avg. income in one cycle = $55,555.

From time to time, when you see your name no longer on the
list, you take the latest posting that appears in the
newsgroups, and send out another $5, and put your name at
#5, and start posting again.  Remember, 200 postings is only
a guideline. The more you post, the greater the return.

THE ONLY COST IS $5, AND 5 STAMPS, 5 ENVELOPES and 5 PIECES OF
PAPER.  Anyone can afford $5 for such an effortless investment
which produces such SPECTACULAR RETURNS.

There are millions of internet users, and millions of new
net surfers every month!  This is the great advantage of the
Internet.  People all over the world can hear you and listen
carefully if you talk reasonably.  Many will take that chance!
I agree.  If it wasn't the Internet, and it was a small circle
of people, the return would be rather small.  It would not
succeed.

But here on the Internet, it is a giant village, where thousands
of new members join in every day!  The amount of money returned
to you is 200 times larger because the group is 200 time larger,
i.e 200 postings, and the risk is zero.  You CAN'T lose!

Remember, read the instructions carefully, and play fairly.
That's the only way this will work.  Get a printout so you can
refer back to this article easily.  Try to keep a list of
everyone that sends you money and always keep an eye on the
postings to make sure everyone is playing fairly.  You know
where your name should be.

REMEMBER - HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.  YOU DO NOT NEED TO
CHEAT WITH THIS IDEA TO MAKE MONEY!  BESIDES, NOT PLAYING THE
GAME FAIRLY IS ILLEGAL.  SO LET'S BE REASONABLE AND PLAY
FAIRLY, SO WE CAN ALL ENJOY THE INTERNET GOLD MINE.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU, and remember, play fair and you'll
be a winner.  Come on and finally get those things you've
wanted for a long time!!!



Just wanted all you out there to know that if I find one more get rich 
quick scheme I'm reporting you to the proper authorities. I will turn you in.

Never Fear, SteveGoss is here.
I empathize with you, but I have tried ranting and threatening these
mongrels so I have decided to take action. I have attached a very special
document that I compiled of all the bad, bad people I have found
participating in this scam.

Take the list and spread it to the world!!

send it to any authorities that you know - :}
