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 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. : IMPORTANT: This 
is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal; and it is 99% 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 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) 
T. M. Lever 
731 21st Ave South Campus Box# 2148 
Minneapolis, MN 55454 

#2) J. Youells 
36 North St. 
Plymouth, PA 18651 

#3)B. Parsons
100 lakeview DR.
APT. 510 
Clute,TX 77531

#4) William. Louis
1200 Ohio Ave.
Midland, PA 15059

#5)Holton-Payne
PO Box 18 
Kellyville, Sydney
Australia, 2155


#6)Greg Holton
PO BOX 61
Kellyville, Sydney
Australia, 2155


: 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! 
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, 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 ----- 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!
