: THIS REALLY WORKS!!!! : "WHAT'S 6 BUCKS? IT COULD BE 6 GRAND!!! : IT'S WORTH A TRY... BUT YOU'VE GOT TO FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY !" : A little while back, 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 dollars within weeks : with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought, "Yeah, : right. This must be a scam." : But like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. : Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and : addresses stated in the : article. : You then place your own name and address on the bottom of the : list at #6, and post the : article : in at least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands.) No catch -- : that was it. So after : thinking it : over, and talking to a few people first, I thought about trying : it. : I figured, "what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, : right?" Like most of us I : was a : little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of : it all. So I checked it out with : the : U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is : indeed legal! (Also refer : to : Title 18: Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws.) Then I : invested the measly $6.00. : Well... GUESS WHAT???... Within 7 days, I started getting money : in the mail! I was : shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept : coming in. In my first : week, I : made about $25.00. By the end of the second week, I had made a : total of over $1,000.00! : In the third week, I had over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. : This is now my fourth week : and : I have made a total of just over $42,000.00, and it's still : coming in rapidly! It's certainly : worth $6.00 and 6 stamps. I have spent more than that on the : lottery!!! : Let me tell you how this works and, most importantly, why it : works. (Make sure you print a : copy of this article NOW, so you can get the information off of : it as you need it.) : STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following : on each piece of paper: : "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Then write your name and : address. : Now get : 6 US $1.00 bills and fold ONE "inside" EACH of the 6 pieces of : paper so the bill will not : be : seen through the envelope (to prevent thievery.) Next, place one : paper in each of the 6 : envelopes and seal them. You should now have 6 sealed envelopes, : each with a piece of : paper : stating the above phrase, your name and address, and a $1.00 : bill. What you are doing is : creating a service by this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! Mail the 6 : envelopes to the : following addresses: : #1 J. Hendrickson : 1812 Forest Ln. : San Bernardino, CA 92404 : #2 ASP : 7882 N. Summerhill Dr. : Park City, UT 84098 : #3 Lop : 1206 Kay Ave. : Chesapeake, Va. 23324 : #4 T. Jones : 270 4th st : Idaho Falls, ID 83401 : #5 M. Sears : 34761 Doheny Place : Capistrano Beach, Ca 92624 : #6 Moe : 4315 Ravenstone Dr. : Greensboro, NC 27407 : STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above and : move the other names : up : (i.e. #6 becomes #5, #5 becomes #4, etc.) Then add YOUR name and : address as #6 on the : list. : STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this : article as close to the original as : possible. 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! : ***DIRECTIONS***HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS*** : Step 1: You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your : own posting. Simply put : your : cursor at the beginning of this letter, drag your cursor to the : bottom of this document, and : select 'copy' from the edit menu. This will copy the entire : letter into the computer's : memory. : Step 2: Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your cursor at the : top of the blank page. : From the 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will paste a copy of the : letter into notepad so that you : can add your name to the list. : Step 3: Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you want : to do your postings in : different sittings, you'll always have this file to go back to. : Step 4: Use Netscape or Internet Explorer and try searching for : various newsgroups : (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.) : Step 5: Visit these message boards and post this article as a : new message by highlighting the : text of this letter and selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill : in the Subject. This will be the : header that everyone sees as they scroll through the list of : postings in a particular group. : Click the 'post message' button. You're done with your first : one! Congratulations... THAT'S IT! All you have to do is jump to : different newsgroups and : post : away. After you get the hang of it, it will take about 30 : seconds for each newsgroup! : ** REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY : YOU : WILL MAKE!!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINUMUM OF 200** : That's it. You will begin receiving money from around the world : within days! You may : eventually want to rent a P.O. Box due to the large amount of : mail you will receive. If you : wish to stay anonymous, you can invent a name to use, as long as : the post man will deliver it. : JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT! : Now the WHY part: Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 : replies (a very low example). : So then I made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each : of the 5 persons who : just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my name : at #5 and only 5 : persons respond to each of the original 5. That is another : $25.00 for me. Now those 25 : each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies : each, I will bring in an : additional $125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post : the MINIMUM 200 : with my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an : additional $626.00! OK, : now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons posts a MINIMUM : 200 letters with my : name at : #2 and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made me : $3,125.00!!! With an original : investment of only $6.00!!! AMAZING! : When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the : latest posting in the : newsgroups, : and send out another $6.00 to names on the list, putting your : name at number 6 again. : And start posting again. The thing to remember is, do you realize : that thousands of people all : over the world are joining the internet and reading these articles : every day, JUST LIKE YOU : are now??? So, can you afford $6.00 to 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 happpening when there are tons of : new honest users and : new honest people who are joing the internet and newsgroups every : day 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. Think about this!!! If you gamble your : money away in a casino or a : race track, or maybe just the lottery...WHY? Because we all want more : $$$! RIGHT? So we risk : our money... playing it agianst the odds! : NEED MONEY? Well, if you have any logic and $6, you will! You : think this is a gamble? : Maybe. But it's not odds your up against -- INSTEAD, IT'S YOUR : OWN INTEGRITY! : You NEED MONEY? Play FAIRLY and HONESTLY, WITH FULL INTEGRITY and : you will : be making some SERIOUS CASH!!! : $GO FOR IT$
