Schemers would be if this post was crammed down their throats via email

INSTRUCTIONS


Follow these instructions EXACTLY, and in 20 to 60 days you will have
received over 50,000 musical notes ON DAT.

[1] Immediately mail a DAT containing one note or tone to the first 5
names listed below, starting at number 1 through number 5. SEND
DAT ONLY. (Total investment: 5 notes)

ENCLOSE A LETTER WITH A NOTE SAYING: "Please add my note to your composition
list". Include your name and mailing address.

[2] Remove the name that appears as number 1 on the list. Move the
other 9 names up one position (Number 2 becomes number 1, number 3
becomes number 2, and so on). Place your name, address, and zip
code in the number 10 position.

[3] With your name in the number 10 position, upload this ENTIRE file
to 15 (Fifteen) different bulletin boards. You may post it to the
BBS's message base or to the file section. Name it FASTMUSC.TXT,
and use the file description comments to draw attention to this
file and its great potential for all of us.

[4] Within 60 days you will receive over 50,000 notes on DAT. All you have
to do then is to arrange the notes in the proper order and you will
have a beautiful song. Keep a copy of this file for yourself so that you
can use it again and again whenever you need music. As soon as you mail
out these letters you are automatically in the music making business.
People will be sending YOU 1 note to be placed in your song. This
music can then be rented to a composer that can be found in your
local yellow pages listings for additional income on a regular basis.

The list will become more valuable as it grows in size. This is a
service. ** IT IS PERFECTLY LEGAL ** If you have any doubts as to the
legality of this service, please refer to Title 18, Sections 1302 and
1341 of the Postal Symphony Laws.

NOTE: Make sure that you retain EVERY note sent to you, either on DAT or
Vynil, but do not discard the tapes and notes that people send to you.
This is PROOF that you are truly composing a symphony, and should the
I.R.S. or some other government agency question you, you can provide them
with this proof!

Remember, as each post is downloaded and the instructions
carefullyfollowed, five members will be reimbursed for thier participation
as Song Developer with $1.00 each. Your name will move up the list
geometrically so that when your name reaches the number 5 position you
will be receiving thousands of notes on DAT. REMEMBER - THIS PROGRAM FAILS
ONLY IF YOU ARE NOT HONEST - PLEASE!! PLEASE BE HONORABLE...IT DOES WORK!
THANK YOU.

The following letter was written by a participating member in this
program.

*****************************************************************

To those with the COMMON sense to participate in this easy music
opportunity: About six months ago I received the enclosed post in letter
form. I ignored it. I received about five more of the same letter within
the next two week. I ignored them also. Of course, I was tempted to
follow through and dreamed of making beautiful sonatas, but I was convinced
it was just another gimmick and could not possibly work.

I was wrong! About three weeks later I saw this same letter posted on a
local bulletin board in Montreal. I liked the idea of giving it a try
with my voilin. I didn't expect much because I figured, if other people
were as gullible as I, they would not be too quick to part with 5 music
notes. But, I ATTEND CONCERTS WEEKLY IN MY PROVINCE AND HAVE NOTHING TOO
SHOW FOR IT BUT TICKET STUBS! This week I decided to look at this as my
weekly concert purchase. I addressed the envelopes and mailed out one
note in each as directed. Two weeks went by and I didn't receive anything
in the mail. The fourth week rolled around and I couldn't believe what
happened! I can not say that I received 50,000 notes, but it was
definitely well over 35,000, and certainly enough for me to make THREE
covers of "black and white" and a Coca-Cola jingle. For the first time in
10 years I got out of my rut. It was great. Of course, it did not take me
long to go through my music, so I am using this excellent music making
opportunity once again. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND GET READY TO ENJOY!

Please send a copy of this letter along with the enclosed letter so
together we can convince people who are skeptical that this really does
work!

Good Luck,
Michael Jackson

ROTFL...STC !!!

If only the post was dated April 1 instead of April 10 it would be absolutely
perfect, but I enjoyed it anyway :*)
