   Postal Lottery: Turn $6 into $60,000 in 90 days, GUARANTEED   
      
   I found this in a news group and decided to try it. A little while   
   back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now and   
   came across a message just like 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 addresses stated in the message. You then   
   place your own name and address at the bottom of the list at #6 and   
   post the message in at least 200 news groups. (There are thousands to   
   choose from). 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? So I invested the measly $6.00!!! 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 had 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 is still growing!!! This is now my fourth week and I   
   have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it is 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 message 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!!! Your investment is only $6.00 (plus   
   postage).   
      
   IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off!!! It is not illegal!!! ? It is   
   almost entirely risk free and it really works!!! If all of the   
   following instructions are adhered to, you will receive extraordinary   
   dividends!!!   
      
   Please note: Follow these directions EXACTLY, and $60,000.00 or more   
   can be yours in 20 to 90 days!!! This program remains successful   
   because of the honesty and the 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 or tangible, it is 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   
   a mailing list is secondary to the income which is made from people   
   like you and me asking to be included on your mailing 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 U.S. dollar bills and place ONE inside each of the 6 pieces   
   of paper so the bills will not be seen through the envelopes (to   
   prevent mail theft). 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.   
      
   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 aspect of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Postal   
   Service and they confirmed that it is indeed legal!!!   
      
   Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:-   
      
      
   S. A. Blair   
   14601 Portland Ave #219   
   Burnsville, MN 55306   
      
   D. Kumar   
   Room 2.36 Burkhardt House   
   Oxford Place, Victoria Park   
   M14 5RR Manchester   
   ENGLAND   
      
   T. Perce   
   11505 Headley Avenue   
   Cleveland, Oh 44111   
      
      
      
   T. Beckers   
   Rijksweg 46   
   6267AH Cadier en Keer   
   The Netherlands   
      
   J. Eddolls   
   144 Pursey Drive   
   Bradley Stoke   
   Bristol   
   BS32 8DP   
   United Kingdom   
      
   Louis Joseph   
   1933 Highway 35, #104   
   Wall, NJ  07719-3502   
      
   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 message as   
   close to what you see as possible. Now, post your amended message to   
   at least 200 news groups. 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!!! This is perfectly legal!! If you have any doubts, refer to   
   Title18 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.   
      
   Please remember that this program remains successful because of the   
   honesty and the 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 your 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 bills 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 your in business!!!
