   A little while back, I was browsing these newsgroups, just like you are
 now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make
 thousands of dollars within weeks 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 six names and address stated in the article. you then place
 your own name and address at the bottom of the list at #6, and post the
article in at least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands) No catch, that
 was it. The main difference between this system and others is that you
 have a mailing list of 6 instead of 5... This means that your average gain
 will be app. 15 times higher!!!  

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?

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!

Then I invested the measly $6.00............

WELL GUESS WHAT!!.... within 7 days, I started getting money in the 
mail I was shocked! I still figured it would end soon, and didn�t give it 
another thought. But the money just kept coming in. in my first week, I
 made about $20.00 to $30.00 dollars. 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 spent more than that on the 
lottery!! 

Let me tell you how it 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. the process is very simple and consists 
of 3 easy steps:

Step 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece 
of paper  �PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING � get 6 $ 1.00
dollar bills (or equivalent in your currency) 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 and a $1.00 dollar bill. What you are doing is creating a
service by this.

 THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL



Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:


#1 Chris Jung		#2 James Vanderlinden		
      P.O. Box 4643	                1180-1000 Islands Pkwy.	
      Gaithersburg,MD.             Mallorytown,Ontario,Canada
      20885                                koe 1RO

#3 Eddie Jacob                                 #4 Scott Carmichael
     1109 S Dexter                                  1640 Worcester Rd. #411D
     College Station, TX 77840              Framingham, MA 01702

#5 Jodi Meyer                                  #6 Randy Leonard
W1028 Aster Rd.                                  8137 misty Ln.
Genoa City, WI 53128                          Murfreesboro, Tn 37129-8160
                                                              USA         
                             


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 the 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.

Don�t know HOW to post in newsgroups? Well do exactly the following:

FOR NETSCAPE  USERS:
1) Click on any newsgroup,like normal. Then click on �TO NEWS�, which 
 is  in the top left corner of the newsgroup page. This will bring up a
message box.

2) Fill in the SUBJECT with a flashy title,like the one I used, something 
 that catches the eye!

3) Now go to the message box part of the box and retype this letter exactly 
as it is here,with exception of your few changes.(REMEMBER to add your name
 to number 6 and move the rest up.)

4) When your done typing in the whole letter,click on FILE above the send
button.
Then,SAVE AS.....DO NOT SEND YOUR ARTICLE UNTIL YOU SAVED IT!!
So you don�t  have to type this 200 times.:-)

5) Now that you have saved this letter, go ahead and send your first copy!
 ( click the send button in the top left corner)

6)THIS IS WHERE YOU POST ALL 200!!!!!!,OK,go to any newsgroup
 article and click the �TO NEWS� button again. Type in your FLASHY subject
 in the SUBJECT BOX, then go to the message and place your cursor here,
Now click on the ATTACHMENT which is right below the SUBJECT BOX.
Click on attach file then find your letter wherever you saved it. Click
once on 
your file, then click OPEN then click OK. If you did this right, you should see
your file name in the ATTACH BOX and it will be shaded.

NOW POST AWAY


IF YOU USING INTERNET EXPLORER:
It�s just as easy.holding down the left mouse button, highlight this entire
 article,then press the CTRL key and C key at the same time to copy this 
article, Then print the article for your records to have the name of those
 you will be sending $1.00 to.

NEXT
Go to the newsgroup and press POST AN ARTICLE type in your flashy subject
as click the large window below. Press  CTRL and V and the article will appear
in the message window.*** BE SURE TO MAKE YOUR  ADDRESS CHANGES
TO THE 6 NAMES***Now rehighlight the article and re-copy it so you can have
the changes.......then all you have to do  for each newsgroup is CTRL and
V and 
press POST. Its that easy!!!

THATS IT!!!!! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away.
After you get the hang of it, it takes about 30 sec. 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 with in
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 get 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 thoughs 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, thoughs 125 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my
name at #3 
and only 5 replies each, I will make an additional $625.00! OK, now here
is the fun part,
 each of thoughs 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 a original investment
of only $6.00! 
AMAZING! And as I said 5 responses is actually VERY LOW! Average is 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 another $6.00 to the names
on that list, and put 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 every day and
reading articles like these everday.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 joining
the internet and newsgroups everyday and are willing to give it a try?
Estimates are at 20,000_50,000 new users,everyday, with thousands 
of those joining the actual internet. REMEMBER, play FAIRLY and
HONESTLY and this will work.You just have to be HONEST!!!!

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,
HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. You don�t need to cheat the basic idea 
is to make money!!!!!

Good Luck to all and please play fairly and reap the HUGE rewards
from this,which is tons of extra CASH .

By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting this message with
your name in the list and not sending the money to the rest of the 
people  on the list,you WIIL NOT GET AS MUCH!!! Someone I talked to knew
someone who did that and he only made about $150.00,and thats after
seven or eight weeks! Then he sent the 6 $1.00 bills,people added him
 to their list ,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 may also want to buy mailing 
and E-mail list for future dollars.

Please remember to declare your extra income.Thanks once again.....
IS THIS TRUE OR WHAT?
