: 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 of CASH within weeks
with only an initial
: 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 at 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, 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 OFFICE OR IS IT MAIL FRAUD? I called them:
1-800-725-2161 and they
: confirmed THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! (See 18, sections 1302 NS 1341 of
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 of
getting A LOT of CASH ...
: a
: much better chance than buying a lottery ticket!!!
: So, having these questions answered, I invested EXACTLY $7.92 ... six
$1.00 bills and six 32-cent
: postage 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 to $30. By the end of the
second week I had made a
: total of $1,000.00. 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 and it's still
coming in..... It's certainly
: worth $6.00 and 6 stamps!!!
: 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
: CASH 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 CASH 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 there 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
: CASH made from the mailing lists is secondary to the income that 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). Place one paper in each of the
: 6 envelops 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) Praveen Kalla, 1818 Irish Way, South Bend, IN-46637
: #2) Hichem Souahi, 204 Gillespie, Sherbrooke, Quebec, J1H 4X3 CANADA
: #3) Fakhzan Firdaus, 19 Jalan 18/41A, 40200 Shah Alam, Selangor, MALAYSIA
: #4) X. Zhang, PO Box 6612 Lancaster, CA 93534
: #5) J.Stroud, 1516 Reavis Rd Yadkinville, NC 27055
: #6) C. Dodds 1418 Tyandaga Park Dr. Burlington On L7P 1N3 Canada
: 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 the original as
: possible. Now, post your amended article to at least 300 newsgroups. (I
think there are close to
: 32,000 groups) All you need is 300, but remember, the more you post, the
more CASH you make!
: This is
: perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Sec. 18 1302 NS & 1341
of the Postal lottery laws.
: 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 them 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 addresses 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 CASH 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
letter, 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 the
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 CASH YOU WILL MAKE!!
BUT YOU
: HAVE TO POST A
: MINIMUM 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 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 300 postings, say I receive only 7 replies (a
very low example). So then I
: made $7.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 7 persons
who just sent me $1.00
: make
: the MINIMUM 300 postings, each with my name at #5 and only 7 persons
respond to each of the 7
: original 7, that is another $49.00 for me, now those 49 each make 300
MINIMUM posts with my
: name at
: #4 and I get 7 replies each, I will bring in an additional $343.00! Now,
those 343 persons turn
: around and post the MINIMUM 300 with my name at #3 and only receive 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 16807 persons will all deliver this message to 300 newsgroups with
my name at #1 and if 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 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.
: By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages with your
name in the list and
: not sending the CASH to the rest of the people already on the list, you
will NOT get as much. Someone
: I talked to knew someone who did that and he only made about $150.00, and
that's after seven or
: eight
: weeks! Then he sent the 6 $1.00 bills, people added him to their lists,
and in 4-5 weeks he had over
: $10k. This is the fairest and most honest way I have ever seen to share
the wealth of the world
: without costing anything but our time!!! You also may want to buy mailing
and e-mail lists for future
: CASH. Make sure you print this article out RIGHT NOW! Also, try to keep a
list of everyone that sends
: you CASH 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
CASH!! GOOD LUCK to
: all
: and please play fairly and reap the huge rewards from this, which is tons
of extra CASH.
: Please remember to declare your extra income. Thanks once again...
: "People have asked me if this is really legal. Well, it is! You are using
the Internet to advertise
: your business. What is that business? You are creating a mailing list of
people who are interested in
: home-based computer and online business and methods of generating income
at home. Remember,
: people
: send you a small fee to be added to your mailing list. It is legal. What
will you do with your list
: of thousands of names? That's up to you." So, build your mailing list,
keep good accounts, declare
: the income and pay your taxes. By doing this you prove your business
intentions. Keep an eye on the
: newsgroups and when the cash has stopped coming (that means your name is
no longer on the list),
: you
: just take the latest posting at the newsgroups, send another $6.00 to the
names stated on the list,
: make your corrections (put your name at #6) and star posting again.
: NOTES: *1. In some countries, the export of the country's exchange is
illegal. But you can get the
: license to do this from the post office, explaining the above statements
(that you have an online
: business, etc. You may have to pay an extra tax, but that's OK, the amount
of the incoming CASH is
: HUGE! And as I said, a few countries have that restriction. *2. You may
want to buy mailing and
: e-mail lists for future CASH. (Or Database or Spreadsheet software.) *3.
If you're really not sure or
: still think this can't be for real, please print a copy of this article
and give it to someone who
: really needs the CASH, and see what happens. *4. You will start getting
responses within 1-2 weeks.
: ***ALSO REMEMBER*** SEND YOUR $1 OUT TO EVERYONE ON THE LIST, EVEN IF THEY
ARE NOT
: FROM THE U.S. BY
: DOING SO, YOU'RE EXPANDING YOUR BUSINESS TO THE ENTIRE WORLD AND SECURING
YOURSELF
: AN EVEN LARGER
: INCOME.
: WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? $$$!!! $$$!!! $$$!!! $$$!!! $$$!!! $$$!!!
$$$!!! $$$!!! $$$!!!
: GOOD LUCK!!!
