 TURN $6 into $6000, IT REALLY WORKS 

WANT TO EARN CASH?? NO SCAMS!! NO TRICKS!! 
Have you fell for the DON LAPRE/CARLTON SHEETS 
SCHEMES. You're 
not the only
one! Although these programs do have some 
valuble info, they 
don't tell you anything that you can't find at 
your local 
library. Just look up "mail order" or "Money 
Making 
Opportunities"! Yeah Don Lapre is rich but his 
wealth comes 
from 
selling us his program for $39.99. 
KEEP READING!!! IMPORTANT!!! CHECK THIS OUT, 
BELOW IS A 
PERFECTLY LEGAL PROGRAM THAT IS MORE EFFECTIVE 
THAN DON 
LAPRE'S 
AND IT ONLY COSTS $6.00! HOW TO TURN SIX 
DOLLARS INTO SIX 
THOUSAND: READING THIS COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE! 
IT DOES WORK! 
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 
$1,100.00! In the third week I had over 
$8,750.00 and it's 
still 
growing. This is now my fourth week and I have 
made a total of 
just over $17,000.00 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!
KEEP READING TO FIND OUT HOW THIS WORKS!!! 
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 on only 6 envelopes...one time 
only...no repeat 
mailing) 
IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not 
indecent; no 
misleading promises or claims; 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. 
JUST KEEP READING!!! 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 US $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 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 bill. 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.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they 
confirmed that it 
is 
indeed legal. Mail the 6 envelopes to the 
following addresses: 

#1) M.J. CONAWAY
P.O. 27
Houston, TX 77035

#2) J. Finzel
9595 S. Harford Ct.
Highlands Ranch, CO xxxxx

#3)Ryan Moore
2557 64th St. E.
Inver Grove Heights, MN 55076

#4) Chris Parsons
11914 Twinlakes Dr. Apt 4
Beltsville MD, 20705

#5) Patrick Clifford
26 Townley Drive
Berkley,MA,02779
                                                                          
#6 J. Arciero
10 Wilbur st
Taunton,Ma.02780 
                                                     
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 
bill 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 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 message by highlighting the text of this 
letter and 
selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in the 
Subject, this 
will be the header that everyone sees as they 
scroll through 
the 
list of postings in a particular group, click 
the post message 
button. You're done with your first one! 
Congratulations...THAT'S IT! All you have to do 
is jump to 
different newsgroups and post away, after you 
get the hang of 
it, it will take about 30 seconds for each 
newsgroup!
**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 will 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.** 
HERE'S HOW $6.00 DOLLARS TURNS INTO THOUSANDS!! 
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 $625.00!
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!
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...
Thousands of people are 
joining the internet each day and reading 
articles like 
these just as you are right now. So this can 
never be played 
out. 
Just keep it going and you can make tons of 
money too!!!! 
Please 
try it now and make big bucks in a few short 
weeks!!!!!!
