> MESSAGE CAREFULLY!! Print it out or download it.
> Follow the simple directions and watch the money come

> only $6.00 (Plus postage) IMPORTANT: This is not a
> rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal; and,
> it's 99% risk-free. Best of all-- 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 IN 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 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 $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). --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 $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) Joe Laycock
> 36-1825 Atkinson Street Penticton B.C. Canada V2A 6Y5 #2) Darren
Winfield,
> 26 Worton Drive, Darlington, Co.
> Durham, England,DL1 4JY
> #3) Jason Rekeweg 5690 N SR
> 301 Craigville, IN 46731 #4) Cody Killebrew 2319
> Ridgestone Dr. Dallas, TX 75287-5847 #5) Debbie Lynn
> 3020 Passaic Ave Malabar, Fl 32950 #6) Kristen Baker 517 Landry Dr. Port
> Neches Tx,77651
> STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that
> you see above, move the other names up (6 becomes 5,
> 5becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR name
> as #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 24,000 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 and honesty, 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 $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 document, 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 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 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 $1.00 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 $25.00 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 $125.00! 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 $625.00! 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 $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125
> 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 $15,625,00!
> With an original investment of only $6.00! AMAZING!
> When your name is no longer on the list, you just take

> another $6.00 to names on the list, putting your name
