First of all let me say that THIS IS NOT SPAM!, A LOTTERY, A SCHEME, A CHAIN
LETTER OR A PIRAMID MLM.
Although it may take the appearance of a "chain letter" it is actually a
unique legitimate opportunity for individuals to start their own home based
business by becoming Mailing List Creators and Providers by PROVIDING A
SERVICE.
THIS IS NOT ILLEGAL as I will point out.
Below I have pasted a section directly from the United States Post Office
Website.
"Chain Letters: They're illegal if they request money or other items of
value and promise a substantial return to the participants."
Although this is the only part that really matters the whole thing can be
read

First of all let me say that WE DO NOT PROMISE A SUBSTANTIAL RETURN OR ANY

EARN BIG ! $$$$ Read This Folks!!!!!!...
Turn a $6 Investment into Hundreds of thousands !!! Very Easy & Legal
...Read
This Now !!
EARN MONEY FAST, Easy, simple and legal !!---
EARN LOADS OF MONEY, HONESTLY, FAIRLY, AND LEGALLY Greetings All,
MAINTAIN DISCIPLINE, HONESTY AND PATIENCE...Above all else FOCUS! I found
this
on a bulletin board and decided to try it: A little while back, I was
browsing
through news groups and e-mails just like you are now, and came across an
article similar to this that said you can make thousand 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 six names and addresses stated in
the
article. You then place your own name and address on the bottom of the list
and
post the article in at least 200 news groups. {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 six
stamps
and $6.00 right, right?" Then I invested the measly $6.00. WELL GUESS
WHAT?........Within seven days, I started getting money in the mail. I was
in
awe. I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my
first week I made about $47.00. By the end of the second week I had made a
total of more than one thousand dollars. In the third week I had
considerably
more than the previous week and it is still growing! This is my fourth week
and
I have made a few thousands and it is still coming rapidly. It is certainly
worth the six-dollar investment and six stamps, believe it or not I have
spent alot
more on other home based business' with no returns. Let me explain how this
works and most
important, why it works.....Also, make sure you print this article out NOW,
so
you can get the information. STOP NOW: Print this article out so you can get
the information you need off of it. I promise you that if you follow the
directions exactly you will start making more money than you thought
possible
by doing something so easy. Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully,
and
follow the simple directions and watch the money come in. It is easy, It is
legal, and your voluntary donations total only $6.00 plus postage.
Important: This is not a
rip-off, it is decent, it is legal; and it virtually without risk- it really
works! If all of the following instructions are adhered to, you will receive
extraordinary dividends. PLEASE NOTE: Please follow the directions EXACTLY,
and up to
50-thousand-dollars or more may 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 a part of the Mail Order business. You are in the business of
developing
and providing Mailing Lists. Many large corporations are happy to pay big
bucks for quality
lists. However, this money made from the mailing lists is secondary to
income
which is made from people like you and me asking to be included on that
list.
1 of 4 Here Are The Four Easy Steps To Success:
(Let me just interupt and say you are in no way obligated or required to
participate in helping to build mailing lists of the others named on this
page and that asking to be placed on their mailing list for a $1.00 donation
for this service is totally voluntary and that you do so of your own free
will )
(Let me also state that this is the only way to create a mailing list using
this technique, as asking to be placed on a mailing list has to be totally
voluntary and that it is rocommended that participants use an e-mail address
so that should a volunteer asked to be taken off the mailing list they can
do so.)
Get six (6) separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece
of paper.
"PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST."
Now get six (6) U.S.1.00 bills and place One inside of Each of
the six pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope
(to
prevent thievery). Next, place one paper in each of the six envelopes and
seal
them with the dollar bill enclosed. You now should have six sealed envelopes
each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase with your name and
address
written thereon [don`t forget to enclose the $1.00]. What you are doing is
creating a service-THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate
service and you are paying for it. Clearly, I was a little skeptical and a
little worried about the legal aspects of it all. Therefore, I checked it
out
with the U.S. Postal Service (1-800-275-8777) and they confirmed that it is
indeed legal. Mail the six envelopes to the following addresses:
[1] J. Dough
2309 Catalpa Drive
Dayton, Ohio 45406
[2] Jamie Dunphy,
27 Townspark,
Darru, PortLis, Eire.
[3] Joy Moore
400 S Kingsley Drive
Los Angeles, CA 90020-3224
[4] Richard J. Dunne,
Erkindale Drive,
Durrow, Laoise, Rep.Ireland.
[5] Matt O'Neill
15 Indian Trail Rd.
Randolph, NJ 07869
[6] Ed Harvey ,
7040 Foxthorn,
Canton, Michigan 48187
To have your name removed from my mailing list please email me at
mymail...@yahoo.com with Remove Me as the subject.
.....Now take the #1 name off the list that you
see above, move the other names up (six becomes 5, and 5 becomes 4, and
etc.)
and add YOUR NAME as number 6 on the list. Change anything you need to but
try
to keep this article as close to the original as possible. Now post your
amended article to other news groups.(200 is recommended) (I think there are
close to 24,000
groups). Remember, the more news groups you post to, the more money
you may make! This is perfectly legal. If you have any doubts, refer to
Title 18
Section 1302 & 1341 of the Postal Lottery Laws. Keep a copy of these
directions
for yourself and whenever you need money you can reuse it again. Please
Remember: That this program remains successful because of the honesty and
integrity of the VOLUNTARY participants and by their carefully adhering to
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 is a good practice to wrap the $1.00 bill in dark paper
to
avoid the risk of mail theft. So, as each post is downloaded and the
directions
carefully followed, all members should be reimbursed for their participation
as a
List Developer with one dollar each. Your name will be moved up the list
geometrically so that when your name reaches the #1 position you may be
receiving Thousand of Dollars in Cash! When your name finally comes off the
list you will have 1 complete mailing list. What an opportunity for only
six-dollars
($6) one-dollar ($!) for each of the six people listed above. Send it now
(remember this is voluntary), add
your own name to the list and you are in business. Directions For How To

notepad
file as a text File, if you want to do your posting in different settings,
you
will always have this file to go back to. Use Netscape or Internet explorer
and
try searching for various new groups (on-line forums, message boards, chat
sites, discussions). Visit these message boards and post this article as a

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 are finished You have finished your first posting.
Congratulations! 3 of 4 THAT`S IT. All you have to do is jump news groups
and
post away, after you get the hang of it, it will take about 30 seconds for
each
news group. ***REMEMBER THE MORE NEWS GROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU
MAY MAKE! AND THE BIGGER THE MAILING LIST YOU WILL CREATE (the bigger the
list the more valuable it will be to companies who purchase mailing
lists)*** IT IS RECOMMENDED YOU POST TO A MINIMUM OF 200. "That`s It" You
should begin receiving money from around the world within days from people
just like you asking to be placed on your mailing list. You may eventually
want to rent a P.O. Box due to the heavy volume of mail you may start
receiving. If you wish to remain anonymous you can adopt another name to
use,
if it agreeable with the postman to deliver the mail.
MAKE CERTAIN THAT ALL ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT.
Now the Why part:
Assume for example you get a 7.5% return, which is very conservative.
Please view the following estimated breakdowns.
( THE FOLLOWING IS AN EXAMPLE ONLY. YOU MAY MAKE MORE OR LESS. INDIVIDUAL
RESULTS WILL VARY)
Estimated breakdowns: When you mail 200 letters, 15 volunteers send
you $1.00 Those 15 volunteers mail out 200 letters, 225 volunteers will mail
you $1.00 Those
225 volunteers mail out 200 letters, 3,375 volunteers will mail you $1.00
Those 3,375 volunteers mail out
200 letters, 50,625 volunteers will mail you $1.00 Those 50,625 volunteers
mail out 200
letters, 759,375 volunteers will mail you $1.00 By now your name has dropped
off
the list, but so far you may have received at least $759,375. With an
original
investment of only $6.00 [plus postage]. AMAZING!
When your name finally comes off the list you will have 1 complete mailing
list.
Now take the latest posting in the news groups, and do the same thing
creating a 2nd mailing list and so on, putting you name at number six [6]
again.
And start posting again. You have to remember and realize that thousands of
people all over the world are joining the Internet and reading these
articles
every day, JUST LIKE YOU right now. So you can get $6.00 and see if it
really
works. 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 people who are joining every day and are willing to give it a
try? Estimates are at 20 to 50-thousand new users, everyday, with thousands
of
those joining the actual Internet, Remember, play FAIRLY AND HONESTLY and
this
will really work.
Sincerely,
Ed Harvey
