$$$$$$$ no joke

Posted by Money on September 28, 2001 at 19:39:46:

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 address stated in the article. You then place
your own name and address in 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! Then I invested the
measly $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT!!... within 7 days, I started
getting $$$$$ in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it
would end soon, but the CASH 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. 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.

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 by this.

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!
Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:


#1) Brittany, 17 Corrine Place, Key Largo, FL 33037
#2) Jerry Lacson, 1535 M. Adriatico St. ( SMC ) Malate,
Manila ,Phillipines Zip 1000
#3) Brian Lewis, 4106 Bikini, San Antonio, Texas 78218
#4) Dustin Wollenburg, RR. 5 Box 13, Austin, MN 55912
#5) Tyane Steward, 1917 Kimberly Drive, Phenix City, AL 36867
#6) Asaah Jackson, Loevesteinlaan 13, 6825 CN Arnhem, Netherlands.

STEP 2: Now take out the #1 name of the list that you see above,
move the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...)
and add YOUR Name as number 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 CASH 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 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 computers memory.

Step 2) Open a blank "notepad" file under accessories in
windows
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 newsgroupes 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 CASH YOU WILL MAKE!!
BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**
That's it!

You will begin reciving $$$$ 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 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 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 a
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
