Hello, Taking 5 minutes to read, this may be one of the best decisions
you
will ever make.
I have seen these "get rich quick schemes all over" you may say, well, I
had too, and I finally decided to try one. The only cost involved is $7
and the returns are awesome. There's nothing to lose!!!
I am a struggling college student. In desperation, I sent $1 by mail to
each of the 7 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.
So far, I have read countless stories of other people doing the exact
same
thing, and recieving amounts of $20,000 to over $60,000 within 4-8
weeks.
Simply amazing!
If you follow the three steps below exactly, there is no reason
whatsoever
that the same will not happen to you.
This is a perfectly legitimate investment opportunity. You invest $7
and you
receive return on your investment. So does the next investor. You must
make
this initial investment, however, in order for this venture to be legal.
NOT ILLEGAL, NOT A CHAIN LETTER - PERFECTLY LEGITIMATE! AS LONG AS YOU
FOLLOW ALL THE STEPS INCLUDING SENDING OUT THE SEVEN DOLLARS. OBVIOUSLY
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.
The procedure is very simple.
Step 1. Write your name and address on 7 separate pieces of paper with
the keywords "Please add me to your mailing list." (This is very
important,
you must write this for it to be legal) Fold a $1 bill securely into
each
piece of paper... this will insure that the money will arrive safely.
Send
the letters to each of the seven addresses shown below:
(Remember to include country)
1. Tim Herby
391-104 Johnson
Station 2
Charlottesville, VA 22904-0391
USA
2. Benedikt V. Wyk
Brandenburgische Str. 20
D-10707 Berlin
Germany
3. Robert Stancke
Kurfurstendamm 186
D-10707 Berlin
Germany
4. Mark Kenison
93 E. 820 S.
Centerville, UT 84014
USA
5. Ponlawat Pongsapan
68 Ramkamhang 46
Huamark Bangkapi
Bangkok 10240
THAILAND
6. Ben Pickens
615 4th Street NE Apt. 10C
Tuscaloosa, AL 35404-5706
USA
7. Alan Suggs
17 Ponderosa Lane
Palmyra, VA 22963
USA
Step 2. Now remove the 1st name from the top of the list and put your
name and address as number 7 on the list. (All the other names move up
one space 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. Post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. (There
are
17,000 of them) You are now in the mail order investment business and
you
will start receiving $1 returns 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 pseudonym
such
as "The Manager" or "The investor", but make sure your address is
correct!
NOW LET ME TELL YOU WHY THIS SYSTEM WORKS! Of every 200 postings I
made,
I received an average of 5 replies, YES, ONLY 5, each with a $1 bill
enclosed. You make $5 for every 200 postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER
7.
Each person who sent you $1 now also makes, let's say, only 200
additional
postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 6, i.e. 1000 postings on average,
therefore, 25 people will send you $1 with your name at number 6. You
make $25.
Your 25 new agents make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 5.
Or
5,000 postings - average return is 125 at $1 each is $125. They make
200
postings each with YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 4 = 25,000 postings = $625. You
now have 625 investors that make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT
NUMBER 3 = 125,000 postings = $3,125. These investors now make 200
postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 2 which equals 625,000 postings =
$15,625.
Finally, 15,625 people make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER
1.
You get a return of over $78,000 before your name drops off the list.
AND
THAT'S IF EVERYONE MAKES ONLY 200 POSTINGS! TOTAL INCOME IN ONE CYCLE
IS $78,125.
From time to time, when your name drops off the list, you take the
latest
posting that is appearing in the newsgroups, SEND OUT ANOTHER $7 TO THE
NAMES THAT ARE ON THE LIST, PUT YOUR NAME IN AT NUMBER 7 AND START
POSTING
AGAIN. REMEMBER, 200 POSTINGS IS ONLY A GUIDELINE. THE MORE YOU
POST THE GREATER YOUR RETURN.
Let's review the reasons you should do this: The only cost factors are
7
stamps, seven envelopes, and $7. Anyone can afford seven dollars to put
into such an effortless investment with SPECTACULAR RETURNS!
Some people have said to me "What if the shcme gets played out and noone
sends me any money?" Big deal! You're out a trip to McDonalds. BUT,
WHAT IF IT WORKS! Think of what you stand to gain! Do you realize how
many newsgroups there are? Do you realize how many times this can be
played out over and over, with COMPLETELY NEW people participating?
What
have you got to lose but $7.
Remember, read the instructions carefully and PLAY FAIRLY.... That's the
only way this will work for everyone. Get a printout so you can refer
back to this article easily.
Have fun, and spend it wisely!
