I thought this was a scam at first. Its just sounds to hard to
believe. But in actuallity, it works!. I'm only 17 and I got this e-
mail because I belong to a few yahoo clubs. Well this girl sent the
following message. I almost deleted it but my curiousity got the
better of me. And I'm actually glad. It really works like they say.
So I thought I'd share this with everybody. If you want to try it go
for it, it does work. (no more summer jobs for me!)Anyway...here is
the message:
HONESTY PAYS BIG -- NO SCAM! ***TURN SIX DOLLARS INTO SIX THOUSAND
QUICK AND EASY*** HOW TO TURN SIX DOLLARS INTO SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS
READING THIS COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE! IT DOES WORK! I found this on a
bulletin board and decided to try it. Alittle 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 address stated in the article. You then
place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6. Post
the article (with your name in the #6 spot) 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?" 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 lunch!! 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 you that if you follow the directions exactly, that 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, your investment is
only $6.00 (Plus postage) IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not
indecent; it is not illegal; and, it's 99% risk- free. Best of all--
it really works! If all of the following instructions are adhered to,
you will receive extraordinary dividends. PLEASE NOTE: Please follow
these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be yours in 20 to
60 days. This program remains successful because of the honesty and
integrity of the participants. PLEASE CONTINUE IN ITS SUCCESS BY
CAREFULLY ADHERING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS. You will now become part of
the Mail Order business. In this business your product is not solid
and tangible, it's a service. You are in the business of developing
Mailing Lists. Many large corporations are happy to pay big bucks for
quality lists. However, the money made from the mailing lists is
secondary to the income which is made from people like you and me
asking to be included in that list. Here are the 4 easy steps to
success: STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the
following on each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING
LIST." Now get 6 US $1.00 bills and place 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. THIS IS
ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate service and you are
paying for it! 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. Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses: #1)
Reginal Graham 11000 Kinghurst, #178 Houston, Texas 77099 #2) Baby
Doll Productions 12703 Francis Lane Missouri City, TX 77489 #3) James
Myers 1122 Daisy St., Darlington, SC 29532 #4) Alex Lavoie 1200 N.
45th Drive, Show Low, AZ 85901 #5) Jacop Reddick, P.O. Box 425, Adel,
GA. 31620 #6) Marley Jo, 5 Phillips Rd., Berwick, Pa 18603 .STEP 2:
Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other
names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR name as #6
on the list. STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep
this article as close to 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! You won't get very much unless you post like
crazy. :) This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to
Title 18 Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws. Keep a copy of
these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money, you can use it
again, and again. PLEASE REMEMBER that this program 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 and honesty, the program will continue
and the money that so many others have received will come your way.
NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to you,
either on a computer or hard copy and keep the notes people send you.
This VERIFIES that you are truly providing a service. (Also, it might
be a good idea to wrap the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk
of mail theft.) So, as each post is downloaded and the directions
carefully followed, six members will be reimbursed for their
participation as a List Developer with one dollar each. Your name
will move up the list geometrically so that when your name reaches
the #1 position you will be receiving thousands of dollars in CASH!!!
What an opportunity for only $6.00 - $1.00 for each of the first six
people listed above. Send it now, add your own name to the list and
you're in business! ---DIRECTIONS ----- FOR 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 and 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
settings, 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 NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE! BUT YOU
HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM 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 postman will deliver it. **JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE
CORRECT.** 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 $625.00! OK,
now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM
200 letters with my name at #2 and they each only receive 5 replies,
that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver
this message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5
persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive $15,625,00! 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 everyday?,
JUST LIKE YOU are now!! So, can you afford $6.00 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. WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES AROUND!!! GOD BLESS!
