Make Money Fast I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. 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 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?”
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… 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 is 99% no risk - it really works!. 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. 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) Z.Unruh: PO Box W: Hillsboro, KS 67063.
#2) T. Schmit : 2100 Date St. #1206 : Honolulu, Hi. 96826
#3) C. Concept : 301 N.Ocoee-Apopka Rd : Ocoee, Fl 34761
#4) K. Reardon : 215 Whitcomb Ave. : Littleton, Ma. 01460
#5) S. Purvis: 147 New Hope Road: Lucedale, MS 39452.
#6) K.janjua 4621 e 80th st appt 2d : tulsa, ok 74136
STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other names 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 money you make! This is perfectly
legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18 : Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws. 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, 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. 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. REMEMBER, THE : MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST
IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200 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?
