I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it: A little
: while back,
: I was browsing through news groups and emails, 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 $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
: addresses stated in the article. You then place your own name
: and address in the
: bottom of the list at $6.00, 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 $6.00 right,
: right?" Then I invested the measly $6.00. 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 $25.00. 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 $6.00 and six stamps, but I have spent more than on the
: lottery!! 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 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 $6.00 (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 6 U.S.
: $1.00 bills and
: place ONE inside of EACH of the six pieces of paper so the bill
: 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 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 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) Fred K. Doulous
:P.O.B. 93655
:Los Angeles, C.A. 90093-9998

:2) Thomas Gauss
:1600 Hicks Rd
:Rolling Meadows,IL.60008

:3) Tony Butler
:2700 Hood Rd
Ridgeway, SC 29130

:4) Zoner Tykie
P.O.Box 8402
Dothan, Al, 36303


5) Ralph Bonham
78472 Parkside Dr.
Boardman, Or. 97818

6)John E Hairston
1812 Spur Dr. So 
Islip Terrace NY 11752

: 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 one dollar
: each. Your name will
: move up thelist 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!!!
