HERE IS THE ORIGINAL POST:
A while back, I was browsing these newsgroups,
just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said
you could make thousands in CASH within a few weeks with only an investment
of $6.00 plus stamps! So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam!" But
like most of us I was curious and kept reading. It said that if you send
$1.00 to each of the 6 names and addresses listed in the article, you could
make thousands in a very short period of time. You then place your own name
and address at the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article to a least
300 newsgroups. (There are about 32,000 of them out there and that's quite a
large market pool). No catch, that was it. Even though the investment was a
measly $6.00, I had three questions that needed to be answered before I
could get involved in this sort of thing.
1. IS THIS REALLY Legal? I called a lawyer first. The lawyer was a little
skeptical that I would actually make any CASH but he said it WAS LEGAL if I
wanted to try it. I told him it sounded a lot like a chain letter but the
details of the system (SEE BELOW) actually made it a legitimate legal
business.
2. IS IT OK WITH THE POST OFICE OR IS IT MAIL FRAUD? I called
them:1-800-725-2161 and they confirmed THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! (See 18, h
section 1302 NS 1341 of the Postal Lottery laws.) This clarifies the program
of collecting names and addresses for a mailing list.
3.IS IT RIGHT? Well, everyone who sends me a buck has a good chance getting
A LOT of CASH... a much better chance than buying a lottery ticket!!!!!
So, having these questions answered, I invested EXACTLY $7.98...and six
stamps. And boy am I glad I did!!!! Within 7 days, I started getting CASH in
the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon and didn't give it
another thought. But the CASH continued coming in. In my first week I made
between $20 and $30. By the end of the second week I had made a total of
$1000.00 In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it was 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....It's certainly worth $6.00 and six stamps!!! I
love the power of the internet!
SUGGESTION: Read this entire message carefully! (print it out and download
it now) Follow the simple directions and watch the CASH come in! It's that
easy. It's legal. And, your investment is only $8.00.
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,
that CASH 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 4 EASY STEPS TO SUCCESS:
STEP1: 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. Place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal
them. You now have 6 sealed letters 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
worried about the legal aspects of it all. So checked it out with the U.S.
Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal!
Mail the 6 enveloped to the following addresses:
#1) Dana Hall 125 Chestnut Street, Irondale, Ala 35210
#2) Ken Anderson P.O. Box 5224 sierra Vista, Arizona 85635
#3) Roger Harper P.O. Box 321007 Birmingham, Alabama 35232
#4) Rita Hodges 1498 Jefferson Ave.#502, Miami, Fla 33139
#5) Dayse Martins 170 Ocean Lane Dr. #805, Key Biscayne, Fla 33149
#6) Valrena Bolus 2027 Broadleaf Crescent. Burlington, Ontario L7L 6S4
Canada
STEP2: 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.
STEP3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to
the original as possible. Now, post your amended article to a least 300
newsgroups (message boards). All you need is 300, but remember, the more you
post, the more CASH you make! This is perfectly legal! Keep a copy of these
steps for yourself and, whenever you need CASH, 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 a person of integrity the
program will continue and the CASH 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 to
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 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 letter, and select 'copy' from the edit
menu. This will copy the entire letter into the computers 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. Delete
all extra wording not related to the article.
Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you want to do your
posting in defend settings, you'll always have the file to go back to.
Step 4) Using search engines like Yahoo, AltaVista, AOL 'keyword', etc. try
searching for various newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat
sites, discussions.) It takes a little time to research but there are many
boards out there!!
Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new message by
clicking on 'notepad'...select copy...place cursor in the message board
space...click once...then click paste...this should post the article. (Refer
to your 'help' section for the simplest way to paste.) 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'T IT! All you have to do
is jump to different newsgroups and post away, after you get the hang of it,
it will take you about 30 seconds for each group! **REMEMBER, THE MORE
NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE CASH YOU WILL MAKE! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST TO
A MINIMUN OF 300**
That's it! You will begin receiving CASH from around the world within days!
You may eventually want to rent a P.O. Box due to the large amounts 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 THE
ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT"
Now the WHY part:
Out of 300 postings, say I receive only 7 replies (a very low example). So
then I make $7.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 7
persons who just sent me $1.00 make a MINIMUM 300 postings, each with myname
at #5 and only 7 persons respond to each to the 7 original 7, that's
another $49.00 for me, now those 49 each make 300 minimum posts with my name
at #4 and only 7 replies each, I will bring in $343.00. Now, those 343
persons turn around and post the 300 with my name at #3 and receive only 7
replies each, I will make an additional $2401.00! OK, now here is the fun
part, each of those 2401 persons post a minimum 300 letters with my name at
#2 and they each only receive 7 replies, that just made me $16,807.00!!!
Those 16,807 persons will all deliver this message to 300 newsgroups with my
name at #1 and if still 7 persons per 300 newsgroups react I will receive
$117,649.00. With an original investment of only $6.00 and some stamps.
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 the 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 CASH? 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. This is the
fairest and most honest way I have ever seen to share the wealth of the
world without costing anything but your time!! You also may want to buy
mailing and e-mail lists for future CASH. Make sure you download this
article RIGHT NOW! Also, try to keep a list of everyone that sends you money
and always keep an eye on the newsgroups to make sure everyone is playing
fairly. REMEMBER, HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. You don't need to cheat the
basic idea to make the CASH!! GOOD LUCK to all and please play fairly and
reap the huge rewards from this, which is tons of extra CASH!
