More money than ever

Hello! I've got some awesome news that I think you need to take two minutes
to read if you have ever thought "How could I make some serious cash in a
hurry???" , or been in serious debt, ready to do almost anything to get the
money needed to pay off those bill collectors. So grab a snack, a warm cup of
coffee, or a glass of your favorite beverage, get comfortable and listen to
this interesting, exciting find! Let me start by saying that I FINALLY
FOUND IT! That's right!I found it! And I HATE GET RICH QUICK SCHEMES!! I hate
those schemes like multi-level marketing, mail-order schemes, envelopestuffing
scams, 900 number scams... the list goes on forever. I have tried every darn
get rich quick scheme out there over the past 12 years. I somehow got on
mailing lists for people looking to make money (more like 'desperate stupid
people who will try anything for money!'). Well, when I was a teenager,
these claims to 'get me rich quick' sounded irresistible! I would shell out
$14.95 here, $29.95 there, $24.95 here, and another $49.95 there. I had maxed
out my new Circuit City Card AND my Visa...I was desperate for money!! So, I
gave them all a chance but failed at every one of them! Maybe they worked for
some people, but not for me. Eventually, I just tossed that JUNK MAIL in
thetrash when I got the mail. I recognized it right away. I can smell a
money scam from a mile away these days, SO I THOUGHT.... I thought I could
sniff out a scam easily. WAS I WRONG!! ....I LOVE THE INTERNET!!! I was
scanning thru a NEWSGROUP and saw an article stating to GET CASH FAST!! I
thought..."Here on the Internet?? Well, I'll just have to see what schemes
could possibly be on the internet." The article described a way to MAIL A ONE
DOLLAR BILL TO ONLY FIVE PEOPLE AND MAKE $50, 0000 IN CASH WITHIN 4 WEEKS!
Well, the more I thought about it, the more I became very curious. Why?
Because of the way it worked AND BECAUSE IT WOULD ONLY COST ME FIVE DOLLARS
(AND FIVE STAMPS), THAT'S ALL I EVER PAY....EVER!! Ok, so the $50,000 in
cash was maybe an tough amount to reach, but it was possible. I knew that I
could at least get a return of $1,000 or so. So I did it!! As per the
instructions in the article, I mailed out ('snail mail'for you e-mail
fanatics) a single dollar bill to each of the five people on the list that was
contained in the article. I included a small note, with the dollar, that
stated "Please Add Me To Your List." I then removed the first position name
of the five names listed and moved everyone up one position, and I put my name
in position five of the list. This is how the money starts rolling in! I
then took this revised article now with my name on the list and REPOSTED IT ON
AS MANY NEWSGROUPS AND LOCAL BULLETIN BOARD MESSAGE AREAS THAT I KNEW.
I then waited to watch the money come in...prepared to maybe receive about
$1000 to $1500 in cash or so....But what a welcome surprise when those
envelopes kept coming in!!! I knew what they were as soon as I saw the return
addresses from people all over the world-Most from the U.S., but some from
Canada, even some from Australia! I tell you, THAT WAS EXCITING!! So how
much did I get in total return? $1000? $5000? Not even!!! I received a total
of $23,343!!! I couldn't believe it!! I now have a brand new black Acura
Integra to speak for, due to this!! Now after almost 8 months, I am ready to
do it again!!! So maybe it was possible to get $50,000 in cash, I don't know,
but IT COMPLETELY DEPENDS ON YOU, THE INDIVIDUAL! You must follow through
and repost this article everywhere you can think of! The more postings you
achieve will determine how much cash will arrive in your very own mailbox!!
It's just too easy to pass up!!! Let's review the reasons why you should do
this: The only cost factors are for the five stamps, the 5 envelopes and the
5 one dollar bills that you send out to the listed names by snail mail (US
Postal Service Mail). Then just simply repost the article (WITH YOUR NAME
ADDED) to all the newsgroups and local BBS's you can. Then sit back and,
(ironically), enjoy walking (you can run if you like! :o ) down your driveway
to your mailbox and scoop up your rewards!! We all have five dollars to put
into such an easy effortless investment with SPECTACULAR REALISTIC RETURNS OF
$15,000 to $25,000 in about 3-5 weeks! So HOLD OFF ON THOSE LOTTERY NUMBERS
FOR TODAY,EAT AT HOME TONIGHT INSTEAD OF TAKEOUT FROM McDONALDS AND INVEST
FIVE DOLLARS IN THIS AMAZING MONEY MAKING SYSTEM NOW!!! YOU CAN'T LOSE!!
So how do you do it exactly, you ask? I have carefully provided the
mostdetailed, yet straightforward instructions on how to easily get this
underway and get your cash on its way. SO, ARE YOU READY TO MAKE SOME
CASH!!!?? HERE WE GO!!! *** THE LIST OF NAMES IS AT THE END OF THIS ARTICLE.
***OK, Read this carefully. Get a printout of this information, if you like,
so you can easily refer to it as often as needed.
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 them into an 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!!
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 and 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.
4. Now upload this updated file to as many newsgroups and local bulletin
boards' message areas & file section as possible. 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!!! Set a goal for the number of total uploads you'll
post, such as 15-20 postings or more! Always have a goal in mind!!! If you
can UUE encode the file when uploading, that will make it easier for the
people to receive it and have it downloaded to their hard drive. That way
they get a copy of the article right on their computer without hassles of
viewing and then saving the article from the File menu. Don't alter the file
type, leave it as an MS-DOS Text file. The best test is to be able to view
this file using Microsoft's Notepad for Windows 3.x or WordPad for Windows
'95. If the margins look right without making the screen slide left or right
when at the ends of the sentences, you're in business!
5. If you need help uploading, simply ask the sysop of the BBS, or "POST" a
message on a newsgroup asking how to post a file, tell them who your Internet
provider is and PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS BE GLAD TO HELP. I would try to describe
how to do it but there are simply too many internet software packages with
slightly different yet relatively simple ways to post or upload a file. Just
ask for help or look in the help section for 'posting'. I do know that for
GNN, you simply select 'POST' then enter a catchy description under the
subject box, choose 'ATTACH', selecting 'UUE' and NOT 'TXT', then choose
'Browse' to go look for the file. Find your text file CASH.TXT and click on it
and choose 'OK'. Place a one line statement in the main body section of the
message post screen. Something like "Download this to read how to get cash
arriving in your mailbox with no paybacks!" or whatever. Just make sure it
represents its true feasibility, NOT something like..."Get one million dollars
flooding in your mailbox in two days!" You'll never get ANY responses!
6. And this is the step I like. JUST SIT BACK AND ENJOY LIFE BECAUSE CASH
IS ON ITS 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 itout 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!9. (This step added by Charles
Reiley). Hello, This is exciting isn't it?! While I'm on the list, just add a
note saying "Please include extra money tips" with your name & E-MAIL address,
and I will (FOR FREE) send you some neat methods to increase the money you
will receive with this plan. Why?... Why not? I'm not a selfish jerk...I like
helping out others. E-mail just makes it a touch easier and cheaper, too!
After I drop off the list, I can no longer offer you this advice, obviously,
but maybe someone else who gets my tips will offer and simply replace my name
on this step number 9. Good luck and give this plan your all, it will
definitely pay off! Like Mike said, HAVE FUN WITH IT!!!
