Default This might work!

I'm not sure if this is going to work or not, it came across my email
the other day so I thought why not try, the most I'd be out would be a
few bucks so here goes. Please read the following with an open mind.

¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬__ __________________________________________________ _________________________

THIS COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE!
I don't know if this really works, but for 6 bucks, I figure what the
hell
let's give it a try.
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 dubious, 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?"

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
virtually no risk - 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 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. R.L.
1601 Lakeside Ave. #108
Richmond Va. 23228

2. D.B.
5411 Shirlington
Memphis, TN 38115

3. C.F.
1 Prinsen Ave.
Pennsville, N.J. 08070

4. J. Turpin
1256 Mt. Moriah Rd.
Memphis, TN. 38117

5. G. Turpin
13 Ewing Street
Bridgeton, N.J. 08302

6. F.T.
P.O. Box 8274
The Woodlands, TX. 77387

--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
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. 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, 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 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. 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 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. Don't
let this exciting opportunity pass you by!

Default This might work!

SPAM never works (unless annoying others is your goal).
