Are you ready to retire yet??????
I thought, what the heck, I'll try it. It's only six dollars. I
didn't
do it right at first, I only sent out to about 30 newsgroups. But, I
got back my six dollars and actually made $159.37 in a week (someone
put
some change in the envelope). Anyway, now I'm going to do this the
right way; send out to 250 newsgroups! The rest of this letter is
just
a cut and paste from the original. All I can say is that it works. I
would never have believed it if it didn't happen to me. Just remember
that we must all follow the rules. Be HONEST and FAIR and you will
make
money! Sure is a lot of mail though!
Thanks for reading! - Dan

MAKE A FORTUNE - AND THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH!
IF YOU HAVE READ THIS FAR YOU HAVE ALREADY PROVED IT WORKS!!
Take just 5 minutes to read this and see. This is the newest updated
version.
As I was surfing the net, I read all these postings on how you can
make
over $50,000, even $800,000.
Well I believe that if all goes well, and you follow the rules
EXACTLY,
it will work. Just follow the instructions given in this letter, and
you
to can make over $800,000, perfectly legally according to USA Post
Office Laws (read on for specifics). Don't look at this as a
moneymaking scam, but rather a true-to-life example to test the above
statement. It will only cost you $6 dollars plus 6 stamps, and a few
hours of your time. Thus, there is some effort involved, because
nothing
in life is absolutely free. Are you ready and willing to accept that
you
deserve to receive a fair amount of money? If so, please continue
reading.
But if you think this is just another scam, I suggest that you don't
try
it.
PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS A 6-PERSON LIST, NOT THE USUAL 5. PLEASE DO NOT
TRY TO CHEAT THIS PROGRAM. JUST ADD ONE NAME AND REPOST THE ARTICLE.
IF
YOU DO NOT IT WILL NOT WORK, AND YOU WILL BE REMOVED. FROM THE LIST!
FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS AND JOIN US IN A GREAT OPPORTUNITY!
The program has been revised and you will notice six names instead of
five. The reason for this is the flood of five name programs and the
sixth name will add $50000 to $100000. This is proven mathematically
and in my bank account. I never really thought that this program would
work, but IT DOES and it will for you too. Just be patient and follow
the directions exactly. Print this article now, so you have all the
information for your version. Remember to keep the names right. Let's
go!
STEP 1
Invest your $6 by writing your name and address on six separate pieces
of paper along with the words:
"PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST". (In this way, you are not just
sending a dollar to someone; you are paying for a legitimate service.)
People have asked me if this is really legal. It is! You are using
the
Internet to advertise your business. What is that business? You are
assembling a mailing list of people who are interested in home based
computer and on-line businesses and methods of generating income at
home. Remember - people send you a small fee to be added to your
list.
It is legal. What will you do with your list of thousands of names?
That's up to you, but this is how it becomes legal. To be legal you
must
actually sell a product or service if you expect to receive a dollar.
Anyone sending a dollar back to you must receive something in return.
You have already received this letter due to the participation of each
of the 6 persons listed below. This letter and the plan given within
this letter are a "product" that you have received. Thus, you will be
sending
$1.00 to each of the 6 persons given below in exchange for receiving
this letter and for asking them to provide the "service" of adding you
to their mailing list.
THIS IS A SERVICE AND IS A 100% LEGAL BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, WHICH I
COVERED IN TITLE 18, SECTION 1302 AND 1342 OF THE POSTAL AND LOTTERY
LAWS.
Now, please follow the given steps exactly to receive your desired
amount of money:
STEP 1
Immediately send $1 US cash (a one-dollar bill, no checks, and no
money
orders) to each of the 6 people on the list below. Wrap this dollar in
a
note with the words: "Please add me to your mailing list." (In this
way,
you're not just sending a dollar to someone, you're paying for a
legitimate service.) Also, to discourage those who prey on cash in
the
mail, be sure the bill is completely hidden by the note. A woven
envelope is recommended.
Include your address. You do not need to include your name. This is
the
key to the program! Also, let each person know what number they are
in
your letter so he/she knows which cycle he is receiving the $1.00
from.
Make sure that you retain EVERY name and address sent to you, either
on
computer or hard copy, but do not discard the names and notes that
people send to you. This is PROOF that you are truly providing a
service, and should the IRS or some other government agency question
you, you can provide them with this proof.
Therefore, you will start a list of all the people who send you a
dollar
requesting to be added to a mailing list. Actually, you will want to
safeguard this list because it can generate even better responses and
much more money later! Fold a $1 bill inside each paper, and mail
them
by standard mail to the following six addresses:
1) Rudolfs Osins
Aspazijas 37-4
Jelgava, LV 3001
Latvia

2) F. Rome
1030 Hilltop Dr.
Grapevine, TX 76051
USA

3) Chris Leclair
39 Gurly Rd
Edison, NJ 08817
USA

4) R.M.
66 Navsink Dr
Monmouth Beach, NJ 07750
USA
5) CEP
174 Hillcrest Dr
Barrington IL 60010
USA

6) D Hanson
100 Biz point road
Anacortes WA
USA

STEP 2
Now remove the top name from the list, and move the other names up.
This way #6 becomes #5 and so on. Put your name in as the #6 on the
list
(Remember to take #1 off and change the numbers so #2 becomes #1, #3
becomes #2, #4 becomes #3, #5 becomes #4 and #6 becomes #5 and you
become #6.)
STEP 3
LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH MONEY YOU CAN MAKE.
How do the numbers work for potential income earnings? Assume for the
sake of example that you get a 7.5% return rate. This is very
conservative; my first attempt was about 9.5%, and my second was over
11%.
1. You send out 200 letters, and 15 people (7.5% x 200) will send you
$1
each. $15.00
2. Those 15 send out 200 letters each, and 225 people send you $1
each.
$225.00
3. Those 225 send out 200 letters each, and 3,375 people send you $1
each $3,375.00.
4. Those 3,375 send out 200 letters each, and 50,625.00 people send
you
$1 each. $50,625.00
5. Those 50,625 send out 200 letters each, and 759,375 people send you
$1 each. $759,375.00
6. Those 759,375 send out 200 letters each, and 11,390,625 people send
you $1 each. $11,390,625
TOTAL $12,204,240.00!! That's 12 million dollars. If those figures
sound incredibly high, figure that even with half the return rate, or
even a quarter, the total is still spectacular. It works every time,
but how well will depend on how many letters you send.
In the above example you mailed out 200 letters. This sounds like "pie
in the sky," but the numbers add up, and with over 40 million people
on
the NET, it works! TIP: For an even greater return, post to MORE
than
250 newsgroups initially; try for 300-350.
When your name drops off a list, simply access another message from a
newsgroup and start the process over again. Post the new article to
at
least 250 newsgroups. Remember, the more you post, the more people
see,
and the more you get.
There are at least 25,000 newsgroups at any one time. This is a $7.92
investment. It takes about a week or so to start seeing a return- so
be
patient. The money should flow for about 3months. At that point,
simply
add your name to the list and start over.
I've done this three times and now I can quit my job and start
investing
in real estate full time. I assure you this can work. If you mailed
out
500 letters, you could have received even more! Check the math
yourself, but I guarantee it's correct. With this kind of return, you
have got to give it a try!

Try it once, and you'll do it again. Just make sure you send a dollar
to
each of the addresses on the list above with a note asking to be added
to their mailing list. Together we will all prosper and we will be
able
to share our wealth with those less fortunate than ourselves.
GOOD LUCK!!

So, I’m confused Dan. I sent my $6 in 1997 but I haven’t received any money yet. When can I expect my embarrassment of riches to begin?
