|    Spend $12, Make Thousands (1/2)    |

      From: not@here.com              MAKE THOUSANDS 4 ONLY TWELVE BUCKS              *******IT'S LEGAL NO JOKE*******              I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it: A little while       back, I was browsing through news groups and e-mails, just like you are now,       and       came across an article similar to this that said you can make thousands of       dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $12.00!! So, I       thought,       "Yeah right, this must be a scam, another pyramid scheme," but like most of       us, I was curious, so I KEPT       reading. Anyway, it said that you send $2.00 to each of the six names and       addresses stated in the article. You then place your own name and address       in the bottom of the list at $12.00, and post the article in at least 200       news       groups. (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 six stamps and $12.00 right, right?" Then I       invested the measly $12.00.              WELL GUESS WHAT!!!       Within seven 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 $28.00. By the end of the second week I had made a total       of       more than $1000.00!! In the third week I had more than $10,000.00 and it's       still growing! This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of       $42,000.00       and it's still coming rapidly. It's certainly worth $12.00 and six stamps,       and       I have spent more than that on the lottery without ever winning AND it's       allowing me to       save for the future of my little ones.              Let me tell you how this works and most important, why it works..........       also make sure you print this out NOW, so you can get the information off of       it, as you will 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 $12.00 (Plus postage)!!!              IMPORTANT:       This is not a rip-off, it is decent; it's legal; and it is virtually no       risk - it really works!! If all the following instructions are adhered to,       you       will receive extraordinary dividends.              PLEASE NOTE:       Please follow the 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 apart of the Mail Order business. 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 income, which is made from people like you and me       asking       to be included in that list. Here are the four easy steps to success.              STEP ONE: Get six separate pieces of paper and write the following on each       piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 12 U.S. $1.00       bills and place TWO inside of EACH of the six pieces of paper so the bills       will       not be seen through the envelope (to prevent thievery). Next, place one       paper in       each of the six envelopes and seal them. You now should have six sealed       envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name       and       address, and two $1.00 bills. 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 little worried about the legal       aspects       of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-238-5355)       and       they confirmed that it is indeed legal!!              Mail the six envelopes to the following addresses:                                   1) Q. Huda       1212- 1315 Bough Beeches Blvd.       Mississauga, Ontario, L4W 4A1              2) Chon Romero       1150 W. Central Avenue       Saint Paul, MN 55104              3) R. Ongaro       Apt 201-3195 Erindale Station Road       Mississauga, Ontario L5C 1Y5              4) W Hanagan       117 Oak st.       Ashland, Mass. 01721              5) M. Smith       15 Edmunds rd. Apt 151       Framingham,Mass. 01701              6) R. Wolfe       35 Wedgewood Road       Hazleton, Pa. 18202                     STEP TWO: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the       other names up (six becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, and etc.) and add YOUR NAME as       number 6 on the list.              STEP THREE: 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       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 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 directions. Look at it this way. If you were 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, all members will be       reimbursed for their participation as a List Developer with two dollars       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 $12.00 ($2.00 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 NEWS GROUPS!!!*****              STEP ONE: 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 TWO: 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 the notepad so that you will add your name to the list.                     [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
