I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of pounds within weeks with only an initial investment of £5.00! 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 in the bottom of the list at no.5, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. I thought about trying it. I figured: "£5 is nothing! Then I invested the £5.00. GUESS WHAT! Within a week money started coming in the post! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. It's certainly worth £5.00, and 5 stamps. 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 off of it, as you need it. I promise if you follow the directions exactly, you will start making more money than you thought possible by doing something so easy! Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (Print it out or download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in! It's easy. It's legal and ethical and, your investment is only £5.00 and 5 stamps. This programme remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue its success by carefully adhering to the instructions. Here are the 4 easy steps to success: > STEP 1: On five separate pieces of paper write the following "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get five £1.00 coins and put each of them between two pieces of cardboard and place ONE inside EACH of the 5 pieces of paper.Tape the cardboard to the paper so that it will not be bounce around inside the envelope. Next, place one paper in each of the 5 envelopes and seal them, You should now have 5 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name and address, and a £1.00 coin. What you are doing is creating a service. Post the 5 envelopes to the following addresses > > 1) C. Hunter 57 Hollybank Road, Parkgate, Ballyclaire BT39 0DL > 2) Mrs M. Lintern 28 Launcelot Close, Andover SP10 4BX > 3) M. Zukowska, 20 Kirklands Park Gardens, Kirkliston. EH29 9ET > 4) J. Allmark, 4 Verdun Crescent, Dudley, West Midlands. DY2 7QX > 5) J.raftree 5 Heol nanteos Penparcau Aberystwyth Dyfed SY23 1TF STEP 2: > Now take the no.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 and address as number 5 on the list. > STEP 3: Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make! > STEP 4: > Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money, you > can use it again, and again. PLEASE REMEMBER that this programme remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants and by their carefully adhering to the directions. > Look at it this way. If you are of integrity, the programme will continue > and the money that so many others have received will come your way. NOTE: > When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest 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 that if you realise 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 think so... 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 new > 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, every day, with thousands of those joining the > actual Internet. > Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will really work. You might have already been thinking how are you going to stop people from copying this message with their name at no.5 and not sending a pound to the first five on there. Here's the deal. The five people own the rights to this service, now they aren't the only ones that own these rights. To get these rights you > have to purchase them from the five people on this list. Why do you have to buy them from all five you ask? That's what makes this service work. If you decide to break these rules, that's when it becomes illegal, and that is why you must be fair to everyone! > > > > <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.2614.3500" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><BR><BR>I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an<BR>article similar to this that said you could make thousands of pounds within<BR> weeks with only an initial investment of £5.00! it said that you send<BR>£1.00 to each of the 5 names and addresses stated in the article.<BR>You then place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at no.5,<BR>and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups.
