NO NOT AT A CASINO- RIGHT HERE ON THE INTERNET! Taking 5 minutes to read this text may be one of the best decisions you ever made. My name is not important. What is important is what happened to me. On January 1995, I saw an article in an Internet Newsgroup telling me I could make $50,000 within 4 weeks for an investment of only $5. $5!!! For $5 why not? So I sent $1 by snail mail to each of 5 names and addresses specified in the article. I then placed my own name and address in the article and posted it in 200 other Newsgroups. Two weeks later, I started recieving money in the mail!I could not believe it! Hundreds of dollars turned into thousands, and in the 4 weeks, I received a total of $57,883. It came from all over the world. If you follow the 3 steps below, there is no reason whatsoever why the same shouldn't happen to you. This is a perfectly legitimate investment opportunity. You invest $5 and you return on your investment. So does the next investor. NOT ILLEGAL, NOT A CHAIN LETTER- PERFECTLY LEGITIMATE! OBVIOULSLY, IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED, THEN DON'T PARTICIPATE. BUT PLEASE PRINT THIS ARTICLE AND GIVE IT TO SOMEONE WHO MAY WISH TO TAKE ADVANTAGE. This procedure is very simple. STEP 1. Write you name and address on 5 seperate pieces of paper with the words "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST". Fold a $1 bill in each of these pieces of paper and mail them to the following five addresses: 1. MIKE BUREK, 2007 SUNNY BROOK DRIVE, AUSTIN, TX 78723-3451 USA 2. TODD FOGGOA,75 COURTNEY RD,DARMOUTH, NS B3A4C3 CANADA 3. RASHAD.A, P.O.BOX 1311 STATION H MONTREAL,PQ H3G2N3 CANADA 4. MIKE HABERNIG JR. P.O.BOX 519, LAKE KATRINE, NY 12449 USA 5. ELISABETH BRANCO, 128 WILSON AVE #2, NEWARK, NJ 07105 USA STEP 2. Now remove the 1st name on the list, move the other 4 names up (5 becomes 4, 4 becomes 3 etc) and put your name and address as number 5 on the list. You can do this by re-typing this article or simply editing and re-posting it in this or another newsgroup. STEP 3. You are now in the Mail order Investment Business and you will start receiving $1 returns by mail within a week or two. The more Newsgroups you post to, the bigger your return will be. you may want to rent a Post Office Box to handle the volume of mail you are likely to receive. If you wish to remain anonymous, you can use a psedonym such as "The Manager" or "The Investor", but make sure your address is correct! From time to time, when your name is no longer on the list, you take the latest posting that is appearing in the newsgroups, SEND OUT ANOTHER $5 TO THE NAMES THAT ARE ON THE LIST, PUT YOUR NAME IN AT NUMBER 5 AND START POSTING AGAIN. REMEMBER, 200 POSTINGS IS ONLY A GUIDELINE. THE MORE YOU POST, THE GREATER THE RETURN. Some people have said to me "What happens if the scheme is 'played out' and no one sends me any money"? Big deal! So you lose $5 - but what are the chances of that happening? Do you realise how many Internet Users there are? Do you realise how many times this scheme can be utilised over and over again- with COMPLETELY NEW PEOPLE PARTICIPATING? There are not HUNDREDS, NOT EVEN THOUSANDS, BUT HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF NEW INTERNET USERS EVERY MONTH! 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 newsgroup postings to make sure everyone is playing fairly. you know where your name should be. REMEMBER - HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. ENJOY!
