Please read the following and think it over. If you don't like it,
then Don't do it - it's no big deal. But if you've got a dream,
maybe this is for you!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here's what one successful participant has to say:
THIS MAY BE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT LETTER YOU RECEIVE THIS YEAR!
WOULD YOU LIKE TO START 1998 OFF WITH A BANG!?!?!
GREETINGS!
Hopefully my name is still on the list below. I am a retired
attorney and about two years ago a man came to me with a letter.
The letter he brought me is the same as the letter in front of you
now. He asked me to verify the fact that this letter was legal. I
told him that I would review it and get back to him. When I first
read the letter I thought it was some off-the-wall idea to make
money.
A week later I met again with my client to discuss the issue. I
told him that the letter originally brought to me was not 100%
legal. My client asked me to alter the letter to make it 100% legal.
I advised him to make a small change in the letter and it would be
allright. I was curious about the letter so he told me how it works.
I thought it was a long shot, so I decided against participating.
Before my client left, I asked him to keep me updated as to his
results.
I couldn't believe it, about two months later he called to tell
me that he had received over $90,000 in cash! I didn't believe him
so he asked me to try the plan myself. I thought about it for a few
days and decided there was not much to lose. I followed the
instructions exactly and mailed out 200 letters (via snail mail of
all things!). Sure enough the money started coming in!
It came slowly at first but after three weeks I was getting more
than I could open in a day. After about three months the money
stopped coming. I kept a precise record of my earnings and at the
end it totaled $94,439.00. I was earning a good living as a lawyer,
but as anyone in the profession will tell you, there is a lot of
stress that comes with the job.
I told myself if things worked out I would retire from practice
and play golf. I decided to try the letter again but this time I
sent 500 letters out. Well, three months later I had totaled
$243,178.00!I just couldn't believe it. I met my old client for
lunch to find out exactly how this works. He told me that there were
a few similar letters going around and what made this one different
is that there are seven names on the letter not five like most
others. That fact alone resulted in more returns.
The other factor was the advice I gave him in making sure the
whole thing was perfectly legal, since no one wants to risk doing
anything illegal. I bet now you are curious what little changes I
told him to make. Well, if you send a letter like this one out, to
be legal, you must sell something if you expect to receive a dollar.
I told him that anyone sending a dollar out must receive something
in return.
What we did to make it legal was make it work out so people
sending you $1 we're actually asking you to put them on your mailing
list. So when you send a dollar to each one of the seven names on
the list, you must include a slip of paper saying "please put me on
your mailing list, $1 processing fee enclosed" and include your name,
address (your phone number is optional).(I actually like an
occasional e-mail address too - it's exciting to chat with other
people who are making such simple money! But of course, that's up
to you!)
This is the key to the program! The item that you will receive for
the dollar you send is the letter, your name on the "mailing list"
and
the right to earn thousands!
Follow the simple instructions below and in less than three months
you can receive over $97,000.00!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

>> IS THIS POSSIBLE? ON THE INTERNET IT IS !!! >>
>> >>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
TO BEGIN THE MONEY MAKING PROCESS NOW,
HERE ARE THE STEPS:
A) Immediately send one dollar to each of the seven people listed
below. Wrap the dollar in a piece of paper saying "please add me to
your mailing list, $1 processing fee enclosed" and include your name
and mailing address. Your phone number and/or e-mail address is
optional. (I also like to add what number the person is on the list
so they can figure out how much more they can expect to receive).
B) Take the person in the #1 position off the list, bump the rest of
the names up a position, and then add your name and address to slot
#7.
(Be sure to proofread so no one else gets your mail!)
C) Post this new letter, with your name and address and post it to at
least 200 newsgroups (there are currently over 22,000 newsgroups
with
thousands of new subscribers every day - no need to worry about
overlapping with someone else) Of course, another option would be to
rent names and addresses from a list company, but in my honest
opinion, posting to newsgroups reaches more people, is faster, and
saves you money that you would have to otherwise spend on bulk
postage! (both ways are 100% legal)
D) Sit back and wait for the envelopes to roll in. THAT'S ALL!
THIS IS A SERVICE AND IS 100% LEGAL
(Refer to title 18, section 1302 &1342 of the U.S. Postal and Lottery
Laws or call the U.S. Post Office at 1-800-725-2161)
HOW DOES IT WORK? CAN I REALLY MAKE MUCH MONEY?
Assume for example you get a 5% return rate, which is very
conservative.
1) When you post 200 letters 5 people send you $1.00
2) Those 5 people post 200 letters and 25 people send you $1.00
3) Those 25 people post 200 letters and 125 people send you $1.00
4) Those 125 people post 200 letters and 625 people send you $1.00
5) Those 625 people post 200 letters and 3,125 people send you
$1.00
6) Those 3,125 people post 200 letters and 15,625 people send you
$1.00
7) Those 15,625 people post 200 letters and 78,125 people send you
$1.00
At this point your name drops off the list. Think about it. With
only
the first six levels you have received over $19,530.00, and at seven
levels 97,655! Even if it doesn't come out exactly, you STILL make
SOME
amount of money!
EVERYONE SIMPLY POSTS UNTIL THEY GET ONLY 5 REPONSES!
DO YOU SEE HOW THAT WORKS?
It works every time, but how well depends on how many letters you
post.
In the example above you posted 200 letters, if you posted 500
letters
you could receive over $244,000.00. Check the math yourself, I
want you to, but I guarantee it's correct! With this kind of return,
you've got to try it. Try it once and you will do it again,
GUARANTEED!
So, are you still skeptical? If you are, at least do yourself a
favor and print or save a copy of this letter right now and think
about it. That way, when you realize that's there's no way that you
can get scammed from this, you can just go back to it, add your
address, send your $1 to the 7 people listed, post your letter to
some newsgroups, and then wait for the dirty looks from the postal
worker when he/she has to stuff your mailbox full of envelopes day
after day!
So here's the list:
****IMPORTANT**** You must send one dollar to the people listed or
this
program will not work properly. It's a very small risk. A very small
expense, HUGE potential returns!

~~~~~~~~~
HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS FAST WITH YOUR WEB BROWSER:
*** JUST COPY AND PASTE! ***
*** HIGHLIGHT and COPY the text of this posted message.
*** Then PASTE it into a plain text editor (Wordpad or Notepad).
*** SAVE IT.
*** THEN, simply COPY and PASTE the text into the message
composition
window, after selecting a newsgroup, and post it! That's it!
(Or you can "ATTACH" the file - see below)
When you first COPY this message in this newsgroup, you need to
highlight entirely with the cursor. Then to PASTE into a text program
you can either use CTRL-V, SHIFT-INSERT, or at the top from your menu
bar click "EDIT" and then "PASTE" (All 3 will work).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have Netscape Navigator 3.0 do the following:
1. Click on any newsgroup like normal, then click on 'TO NEWS'. This
will bring up a box to type a message in.
2. Leave the newsgroup box like it is, change the subject box to
something flashy, something to catch the eye, as "$$$ NEED
CASH$$$?!!READ HERE!$!$!$" or "$$$!!!MAKE FAST CASH, YOU CAN'T
LOSE!!!$$$". Or you can use my subject title.
3. Now click on 'ATTACHMENTS'. Then click on 'ATTACH FILE'. Find your
file on your Hard Disk (the one you saved from the text editor).
Once you find it, click on it and then click 'OPEN' and 'OK'. You
should now see your file name in the attachments box.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE ENTIRE LETTER COPIED BEFORE YOU DO !!!
4. Now click on 'SEND'/'POST'. THAT'S ALL!
You see? Now you just have 199 to go!!!
(You can post to multiple newsgroups with a single posting,
however,
use netiquette and only post to 10-20 at a time...no one wants to
scroll through a long list of additional newsgroups before they
can
read your message!)(Don't worry, it's easy and quick once you get
used to it.)
NOTE: All the versions of Netscape Navigator's are similar to each
other, so you'll have no problem doing this if you don't have
Netscape
Navigator 3.0.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(FOR A QUICK TIP)!
Netscape Navigator 3.x and above)
You can post this message to many newsgroups at a time, by simply
selecting a newsgroup near the top of the screen, hold down the
SHIFT,
and then select a newsgroup near the bottom of the screen. All of the
newsgroups in/between will be selected. After that, you follow/do the
basic steps, stated below in this letter, except step #1.
You can go to the page stated below in this letter and click on a
newsgroup to open up the newsgroups window. Once you've done this, in
the
same window go to 'OPTIONS', and then mark 'SHOW ALL NEWSGROUPS' and
'SHOW ALL MESSAGES'. Now you can see all the newsgroups and you can
apply
easier the above tip.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have MS INTERNET EXPLORER do the following:
1. Go to the newsgroups and press 'POST AN ARTICLE'. To the new
window
type your headline in the subject area and then click in the large
window below. There either PASTE your letter (which it's been
copied
from the text editor), or attach the file which contains it.
2. Then click on 'SEND' or 'OK'.
NOTE: All versions of MS Internet Explorer are similar to each
other,
so you won't have any problem doing this.
GENERAL NOTES ON POSTING:
A nice page where you'll find all the newsgroups if you want help
is http://www.liszt.com/ (When you go to the home page, click on
the link 'Newsgroup Directory'). But I don't think you'll have any
problem posting because it's very easy once you've found the
newsgroups. All these web browsers are similar. It doesn't matter
which one you have. (But it makes it very easy if you have Netscape
Navigator 3.0 or later. You may download it from the Internet if you
don't have it.) You just have to remember the basic steps, stated
below.
BASIC STEPS FOR POSTING:
1. Find a newsgroup and you click on it.
2. You click on 'POST A NEW ARTICLE' or 'TO NEWS' or anything else
similar to these.
3. You type your flashy headline in the subject box.
4. Now you PASTE the letter. (You have to COPY it from the text
editor, of
course, from before.)
5. Finally, you click on 'SEND' or 'POST' or 'OK', whatever is there.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*** REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY
YOU WILL MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**
That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world
within
days! You may eventually want to rent a P.O. Box due to the large
amount
of mail you 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.**
(*** CAN ALSO USE: 1) CHAT GROUPS 2) WORD OF MOUTH 3) REGULAR MAIL)

================================================================
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 $7.00.
================================================================
