I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A little while back I was browsing through newsgroups just like you are now and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $60.00! 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 $10.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6 and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. (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 6 stamps and $60.00 right?"
Then I invested the measly $60.00. Well GUESS WHAT!?... within 7 days I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon but the money just kept coming in. In my first week I made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made a total of over $1000.00! In the third week I had over $10000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth $60.00 and 6 stamps I have spent more than that on the lottery!! Let me tell you how this works and most importantly WHY it works... Also make sure you print a copy of this article NOW so you can get the information off of it as you need it.

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 money 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 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 $10.00 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). Next place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes 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 $10.00 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) J. Linley
4324 Beechgrove Dr.
Grove City, OH 43123
#2) J McClintock
80 Lenard LN
Northglenn, CO 80233
#3) R McRae
3125 Sebring Dr.
Plano, TX 75023
#4) Lambert, LLC
P.O. Box 860
Attalla, AL 35954
#5) Elliott Thompson
330 Arrowhead blvd unit 55-F
Jonesboro GA 30236
#6) Thurl, LLC
PO Box 162401
Atlanta GA 30321
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 original as possible. Now post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. (I think there are close to 24000 groups) All you need is 200 but remember the more you post the more money you make! You won't get very much unless you post like crazy.
This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts refer to Title 18 Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and whenever you need money 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 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 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 dollars in CASH!!! What an opportunity for only $60.00 ($10.00 for each of the first six people listed above) Send it now add your own name to the list and you're in business!

**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 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 each of the 5 persons who just sent me $10.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings each with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5 that is another $250.00 for me now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each I will bring in an additional $1250.00! Now those 125 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each I will make an additional $6250.00! OK now here is the fun part each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with my name at #2 and they each only receive 5 replies that just made me $31250.00!!! Those 3125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive $156250.00! With an original investment of only $60.00! AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the list you just take the latest posting in the newsgroups and send out another $60.00 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 $60.00 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 money? 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 20000 to 50000 new users every day with thousands of those joining the actual internet. Remember play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will really work! You will Be Glad You Made The Effort !
