   Many of you would like to win the lottery, with this you have a better   
   chance with only a $7.00 investment. Note this service is 100% legal   
   (Refer to Title 18, Section 1302 and 1342 of the U.S. Postal & Lottery   
   Laws).   
   I really prayed and hope you will help. There are over 6 million   
   people in the world. What if each one of them sent you just $1.00? The   
   following request requires and investment of $7.00. I pray and hope   
   that everyone can afford that amount. I found this article on the web   
   and feel it is a way we can be blessed and bless others. I will keep   
   you updated by posting back to this web group in 90 days. Thanks and   
   may God bless you. (He wants to, but will you let Him!) Think of the   
   purpose driven life you could lead through financial freedom and   
   helping others along the way. This is the opportunity you have prayed   
   would come. Just follow the directions below and watch the blessings   
   begin to flow!   
      
      
      
   NO SCAM! THIS WORKS! EARN SERIOUS MONEY NOW! IT'S SO EASY! BLESSED and   
   LEGAL!   
      
   Category: Invest only $7.00 dollars (God's number) and make money!   
   MAKE SOME SERIOUS MONEY. SERIOUSLY IT'S SO EASY AND COMPLETELY LEGAL.   
   (Please reinvest 10% of your profits into charity, remember you reap   
   what you sow!)   
   This method really does work! This really does work and is a very easy   
   way to make fast money. A little while back, I was searching on the   
   web for easy ways to make money and I kept thinking that all of the   
   ways I was reading would never work and were just scams until I read   
   this one! The article that I had found said that I could make   
   thousands of dollars easily in a matter of weeks with only an initial   
   small payment of $7.00. I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam   
   like most of the rest", but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept   
   reading. Anyway, it said that if I sent $1.00 to each of the 7 names   
   and addresses listed at the bottom of the article that I would make   
   great money but only if I followed the following steps. After sending   
   the $1.00 to each person you were then instructed to rewrite the list   
   by taking the 1st person off of the list then moving the 2nd person to   
   the 1st spot, and the 3rd person to the 2nd spot, etc, etc. Finally   
   you should be left with the number 6spot empty and this is where you   
   place your name and address. After reconfiguring the list you then   
   must post it on about 200 newsgroups (doesn't matter but the more   
   places you post the more money you make!). There are thousands and   
   thousands of newsgroups from around the world so this task is easy and   
   that was it when I was done! No catch. So after thinking it over, and   
   talking to a few people that were on the list, I thought about trying   
   it. I figured what have I got to lose except 7 stamps and $7.00,   
   right? Like most of us I was a little skeptical because it seemed so   
   easy and a I was 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) they   
   confirmed that it is indeed legal! After reviewing the pro's and con's   
   of the investment I decided to carry out with it. I invested the   
   measly $7.00 and guess what??... Within 7 days, I started getting   
   money in the mail!! I was very 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   
   $1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's still   
   growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just   
   over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth   
   $7.00, and 7 stamps…. Now let me explain to 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. (I changed it to 7 and have mailed the original $6.00 to the   
   recipients on the list.)   
      
   STEP 1 • Get 7 separate pieces of paper and write the following on   
   each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." • Now get 7   
   US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 7 pieces of paper so   
   the bill will not be seen through the envelope to prevent thievery. •   
   Next, place one paper in each of the 7 envelopes and seal them. You   
   should now have 7 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating   
   the above phrase (PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST), your name and   
   address, and a $1.00 bill. What you are doing with this letter is   
   creating a service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! • Now mail the 7   
   envelopes to the following addresses (Please start the chain of   
   blessings by sending the $1.00 to each of these people. You have to   
   send the money for it to work.Consider it a seed offering.)

   3. Joseph Brown, 14 Mount Pleasant Street, Winchester, MA 01890

    STEP 2 • After you have mailed out your letters creating a service   
   and making this legal, take the #1 name off the list that you see   
   above, move the other names up (7 becomes 6, 6 becomes 5, etc...) and   
   add YOUR Name as number 7 on the list. STEP 3 • Change anything you   
   need to in this article, but try to keep this article as close to   
   original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at least 200   
   newsgroups. (I believe there are close to 24,000 groups in USA alone).   
   All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post the more money   
   you make!
