   how to become a millionair (1/2)   
   30 May 06 09:07:36   
   
   From: niky@home.nl   
      
   I am a 22 year old millionaire investing £6 and here is how I done it:   
   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   
   £6.00! 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 £1.00 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 £6.00,   
   right?" Then I invested the measly £6.00. 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 £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 £6.00, 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.   
   I promise you that if you follow the directions exactly, that you   
   will start making more money than you thought possible by doing   
   something so easy!   
   Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (print it out or   
   download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come   
   in!   
   It's easy. It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus   
   postage)   
   IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not   
   illegal; and it is 99% no risk - 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 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 UK £1.00 and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of   
   paper so the money 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   
   piece. 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.k.   
   Post Office (020-87427820) and they confirmed that it is indeed   
   legal. Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:   
      
   #1)A. Testini   
   Baalder 41   
   9202 MA Drachten ,The Netherlands   
      
   #2)D v/d Waal   
   Suikerstraat 8   
   3311 vv Dordrecht,The Netherlands   
      
      
   #3)E. Benford   
   6656 Mableton Pwky APT. D4   
   Mableton, GA.. 30126   
      
   #4)T. Trimuel   
   1245 W. Chase   
   Chicago, IL 60626   
      
   #5)M. Smit tav Maus   
   Gelkingestraat 5   
   9711 NA Groningen, The Netherlands   
      
   #6)M. Hoogerwerf   
   G Doustraat 39   
   9718 RE Groningen, The Netherlands	   
      
      
      
   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 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, 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 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 pounds 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
