- Make alot of $$$$$ in 5 weeks!! This is the real thing ! No B.S.!! -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

			Have you ever wondered "how do I make 1000s of $$$$$ in 
			some 3 weeks?" Well just read below and folow it to the dot. 
			You will be rich in no time!!


- Fist off it this SAFE??

			Yes, this is safe, easy and realy works!! For $6 (U.S.), 6 
			stamps, and about an hour of your time you could earn a 
			year's salary in a month.
	
			Does this sound too good to be true?? Well yea but just 
			imagin... WHAT IF??


- How did I come across this artical.

			A littel while I was browsing these newsgroups, just like you 
			are now and I came across an artical 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 os us, I was curious. Like
			most of us I kept reading. Anyway, it said that if you send 
			$1.00 to each of the 6 names and addresses stated in the
			articale, you could make thousands in a very short period of
			time. So I tryed, thinking the most I can loose is $6.00 and
			today I have an account already in the  6 digits!

			No B.S.!! That was all I had to do, just read this artical very 
			closly and follow every word...

- Is this an illegal scam??

			1. Is this realy legal??
							I called a lawyer first. The lawyer was a little skeptical that
							I would actually make any money but he said it WAS LEGAL 
							if I wanted to try it. I told him it sounded a lot like a chain 
							letter but the details of the system (SEE BELOW) actually 
							made it a legitimate legal business.

			2. Would the Post Office be OK with this?
							I called them: 1-800-725-2161 and they confirmed THIS IS 
							ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! (See Title 18,h sections 1302 NS 1341 
							of Postal Lottery Laws). This clarifies the program of collecting
							names and addresses for a mailing list.

			3. Is this moral?
							Well, everyone who sends me a buck has a good chance of 
							getting A LOT of  money ... a much better chance than buying 
						 a lottery ticket!


			So, having these questions answered, I invested EXACTLY $7.92... 
			six $1.00 bills and six 32 cent postage stamps ... and boy am I 
			glad I did! Within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I 
			wasshocked! I still figured it would end soon, and didn't give it
			another thought. But the money just continued coming in. In my
			first week, Imade about $20.00 to $30.00 dollars. By the end of
			the second week I had made a total of $1,000.00! In the third
			week I had over $10,000.00 and it was 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... It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 stamps!
			So now I'm reposting this so I can make even more money! The
			*ONLY* thing stopping *ANYONE* from enriching their own bank
			account is pure laziness!

			It took me all of 5 MINUTES to print this out, follow the directions,
			and begin posting to newsgroups. It took me a mere 45 minutes
			to  post to over 200 newsgroups. And for this GRAND TOTAL
			investment of $ 7.92 (US) and under ONE HOUR of my time, I have
			reaped an incredible amount of money -- like nothing I've ever
			even heard of anywhere before!


- Nuff said!!! How do I get started??

			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 when you need it. The
			process is very simple and consists of THREE easy steps.


 ============
HOW IT WORKS
============

			STEP 1:
			---------
						Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each
						piece of paper:

																								PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST.
																						$1 US DOLLAR PROCESSING FEE IS ENCLOSED.

						(THIS IS KEY AS THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT LEGAL SINCE YOU ARE
						PAYING FOR AND LATER OFFERING A SERVICE).

						Now get 6 $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 theft/robbery.

						Then, 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 and an U.S. $1.00 bill.

						Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:  (CHECK FOR
						INTERNATIONAL	POSTAGE - REMEMBER - USE REGULAR STAMP
						FOR CANADA, FOR IT IS NO EXTRA FEE)


			#1 - Mark Cantelon
										33 Owen Blvd.
										Willowdale, ON
										M2P 1G2 - Canada

			#2 - SP
										PO BOX 10179
										Zephyr Cove, NV 
										89448 - U.S.A.

			#3 - Wayne Charles
										4255 Gulf Drive
										#229 Holmes Beach FL
										34217 - U.S.A.

			#4 - Stefan G
										1910 Mewuk Drive
										South Lake Tahoe, CA
										96150 - U.S.A.

			#5 - Jc Cole
										1113 Palma Sola Blvd
										Bradenton, FL
										34209 - U.S.A.


			#6 - Josh
										box 1138
										Gravelbourg Sk.
										S0H 1X0 - Canada


			(If you think you can just go without sending the 1$ the each of
			the 6 above, well you can't because doing that will be an automatic
			violation of the postal lottery law, started above - and if you get
			caught doing that, it is a felony - and remember the definition
			of felony is a crime punishable by jail.. and 6$ + stamps is a SMALL
			fee!!)

			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. (If you want to remain
						anonymous	put a nickname, but the address MUST be correct.
						It, of course, MUST contain your Country, state/district/area,
						zip code, etc! You wouldn't want your money to fly away,
						wouldn't you?).

			STEP 3: 
			---------

						Now post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups.
						Remember that 200 postings are just a guideline. The more
						you post, the more money you make!

						Don't know HOW to post in the news groups? Well do exactly
						the following:


			HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS FAST WITH YOUR WEB BROWSER:
			------------------------------------------------------------------------------

			The fastest way to post a newsletter: Highlight and COPY the
			text of this posted message and PASTE (Ctrl-V) it into a plain
			text editor (as Wordpad) and save it. After you have made the
			necessary changes that are stated above, simply COPY (Ctrl-C)
			and PASTE (Ctrl-V) the text into the message composition window,
			after selecting a newsgroup, and post it! (Or you can attach the
			file, without writing anything to the message window.)

			--------------------------------------------------------------------------

						If you have Netscape Navigator 3.0 do the following:

			1. Click on any newsgroup like normal, then click on 'TO NEWS'.
						 This will bring up a box to type a message in.

			2. Leave the newsgroup box like it is, change the subject box to
						 something flashy, something to catch the eye, as "$$$ NEED
						 CASH $$$? READ HERE!" Or "$$$! MAKE FAST CASH, YOU CAN'T
						 LOSE! $$$". Or you can use my subject title.

			3. Now click on 'ATTACHMENTS'. Then click on 'ATTACH FILE'.
						 Find your file on your Hard Disk (the one you saved from the
						 text editor). Once you find it, click on it and then click 'OPEN'
						 and 'OK'. You should now see your file name in the attachments
						 box.

			4. Now click on 'SEND'/'POST'. You see? Now you just have 199
						 to go! (Don't worry, it's easy and quick once you get used to it.)
						 
			NOTE: All the versions of Netscape Navigator's are similar to
												 each other, so you'll have no problem to do this if you
													don't have Netscape Navigator 3.0.

			------------------------------------------------------------------------


			! QUICK TIP!
			(For Netscape Navigator 3.x and above)

						You can post this message to many newsgroups at a time, by
						simply selecting a newsgroup near the top of the screen, hold
						down the SHIFT, and then select a newsgroup near the bottom
						of the screen. All of the newsgroups in/between will be selected.
						After that, you follow/do the basic steps, stated below at this
						letter, except of step #1. You can go to the page stated below
						in this letter and click on a newsgroup to open up the newsgroups
						window. Once you've done this, in the same window go to 'OPTIONS',
						and then mark 'SHOW ALL NEWSGROUPS' and 'SHOW ALL MESSAGES'.
						Now you can see all the newsgroups and you can  apply easier
						the above tip.

			------------------------------------------------------------------------

						If you have MS Internet Explorer do the following:

		1. Go to the newsgroups and press 'POST AN ARTICLE'. To the
						new window type your headline in the subject area and then
						click in the large window below. There either PASTE your letter
						(which it's been copied from the text editor), or attach the file
						which contains it.

		2. Then click on 'SEND' or 'OK'. NOTE: All versions of MS Internet
						Explorer are similar to each other, so you won't have any problem
						doing this.

			GENERAL NOTES ON POSTING: 
						A nice page where you'll find all the newsgroups if you want
						help is http://www.liszt.com/ (When you go to the home page,
						click on the link 'Newsgroup Directory'). But I don't think you'll
						have any problem posting because it's very easy once you've
						found the newsgroups. All these web browsers are similar. It
						doesn't matter which one you have.  (But it makes it very easy
						if you have Netscape Navigator 3.0 or later. You may download
						it from the Internet if you don't have it.) You just have to remember
						the basic steps, stated below.

			BASIC STEPS FOR POSTING:

						1. Find a newsgroup and you click on it.

						2. You click on 'POST AN/NEW ARTICLE' or 'TO NEWS' or anything
					    	else similar to these.

						3. You type your flashy headline in the subject box.

						4. Now, either you attach the file containing your amended letter,
					    	or you PASTE the letter. (You have to COPY it from the text
			    			editor, of course, from before.)

						5. Finally, you click on 'SEND' or 'POST' or 'OK', whatever is
										there.


			------------------------------------------------------------------------


						**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 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 the WHY part:
			===============

			Out of 200 postings; say I receive only 5 replies (a very low
			example). So then I made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter.
			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 $626.00! 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! And as I said
			5 responses is actually VERY LOW! Average are probable 20 to 30!
			So lets put those figures at just 15 responses per person. Here is
			what you will make:

						at #6 $15.00

						at #5 $225.00

						at #4 $3,375.00

						at #3 $50,625.00

						at #2 $759,375.00

						at #1 $11,390,625.00

			When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest
			posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to names
			on the list, putting your name at number 6 again. And start posting
			again. The thing to remember is, do you realize that thousands
			of people all over the world are joining the internet and reading
			these articles everyday, JUST LIKE YOU are now!

			So can you afford $6.00 and see if it really works? I think so...
			People have said, "what if the plan is played out and no one sends
			you the money? So what! What are the chances of that happening
			when there are tons of new honest users and new honest people
			who are joining the internet and newsgroups everyday and are willing
			to give it a try? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users,
			every day, with thousands of those joining the actual Internet.
			Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will work. You just
			have to be honest.

			By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages
			with your name in the list and not sending the money to the rest
			of the people already on the list, you will NOT get as much. Someone
			I talked to knew someone who did that and he only made about
			$150.00, and that's after seven or eight weeks! Then he sent the
			6 $1.00 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks he
 		had over $10k. This is the fairest and most honest way I have ever
			seen to share the wealth of the world without costing anything but
			our time! You also may want to buy mailing and e-mail lists for
			future dollars. Make sure you print this article out RIGHT NOW, 
			also. Try to keep a list of everyone that sends you money And 
			always keep an eye on the newsgroups to make sure everyone is
			playing fairly. Remember that HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. You
			don't need to cheat the basic idea to make the money! GOOD LUCK
			to all and please play fairly and reap the huge rewards from this,
			which is tons of extra CASH. Please remember to declare your
 		extra income. Thanks once again...

			================================================

			LEGAL? ? ? (Comments from Bob Novak who started this new version.)

			"People have asked me if this is really legal. Well, it is! You are 
			using the Internet to advertise you business. What is that business?
 			You are assembling a mailing list of people who are interested in
			home based computer and online business and methods of generating
			income at home. Remember that people send you a small fee to
			be added to your mailing list. It is legal. What will you do with your
			list of thousands of names?

			Compile all of them into a database and sell them as "Mailing Lists"
			on the internet in a similar manner, if you wish, and make more
			money. How do you think you get all the junk mail that you do?
			Credit card companies, mail order, Utilities, anyone you deal with
			through the mail can sell your name and address on a mailing list,
			unless you ask them not to, in addition to there regular business,
			So, why not do the same with the list you collect. You can find
			more info about "Mailing Lists" on the internet using any search
			engine.

 			" So, build your mailing list, keep good accounts, declare the
			income and pay your taxes. By doing this you prove your business
			intentions. Keep an eye on the newsgroups and when the cash has
			stopped coming (that means your name is no longer on the list),
			you just take the latest posting at the newsgroups, send another
			$6.00 to the names stated on the list, make your corrections
			(put your name at #6) and start posting again.

 			===============================================

			NOTES:
						1. In some countries, the export of the country's exchange is
					    	illegal. But you can get the license to do this from the post
					    	office, Explaining the above statements (that you have an
					    	online business, etc. You may have to pay an extra tax, but
					    	that's OK, the amount of the incoming money is HUGE! And
					    	as I said, a few countries have that restriction.

					 2. You may want to buy mailing and e-mail lists for future
					    	dollars. (Or Database or Spreadsheet software.)

					  3. If you're really not sure or still think this can't be for real,
 					    	please print a copy of this article and pass it along to
					    	someone who really needs the money, and see what happens.

					 4. You should start getting responses within 1-2 weeks.
 
					 5. Don't be afraid to advertise this in anyway possible!  Try
					    	using (Ebay.com), even (www.freeclassifiedads.com)  both
					    	are FREE, and are a quick way to get responses.  Other ways
					    	include printing and mailing copies to friends and family - or
					    	even to post this at laundry mats or phone booths, if you can
					    	think of a way to get it to them -- DO IT!
