HOW TO BECOME A MILLIONAIRE IN WEEKS !!!$$$$

HOW TO TURN $30 INTO $50,000!! OR MUCH MORE!! READING THIS COULD
CHANGE
YOUR LIFE!

I started with $30 and I am now a 28 year old millionaire in only 3
months.

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 $30! 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 $5 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 $30, right?" Then I invested the
measly $30.
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 $125.00. By the end of the second week
I had
made a total of over $10,000.00! In the third week I had over
$40,000.00
and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a
total
of just over $100,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. It's
certainly
worth $30, 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!
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 $30 (Plus postage)

IMPORTANT
This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal; and it
is
virtually no risk - it really works!!!! If all of the following
instructions are adhered to, you will receive extraordinary dividends.
PLEASE NOTE
Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $120,000 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," followed by your
name and address.
Now get 6 US $5 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).
Next,
place one paper in each of
the 6 envelopes and seal them, MAKE SURE THAT THERE ARE ENOUGH STAMPS
ON
YOUR ENVELOPES!!(also for international purposes). You should now have
6
sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase,
your name and address, and a $5 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) Eric LILET, 215 Boulevard E. BOCKSTAEL, 1020 Brussels, Belgium
#2) Antonio Bobanac, Dubrovacka 1, 51000 Rijeka, Croatia
#3) Robert De Bruin, 511 N. West Street # A, Visalia, CA 93291-4807,
USA

#4) Linda Baugh, 3220 Duval Rd. apt. # 2806 Austin, Texas, 78759, USA
#5) Maris Serge, Steynstraat 361/4 , 2660 Hoboken , Belgium
#6) R. Northcott, 92 High Street, Moorsholm, Saltburn-by-the-Sea,
Cleveland, TS12 3JH, England/UK.

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

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! **
EVERYBODY AROUND THE WORLD CAN DO IT, BUT REMEMBER TO PUT ENOUGH
STAMPS ON YOUR
EVELOPES!!!!** 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 $5 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 5
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 $30 ($5 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 (Massage-boards etc.) 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.**

Now the WHY part: Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a
very low example). So then I made $25.00 with my name at #6 on the
letter.
Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $5 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 $125.00 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 $625.00! 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
$3125.00! 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 $15625.00!!! 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 $78125,00! With an original
investment
of only $30! AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the list, you
just
take the latest posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $30 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 $30 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 really work. Don't let this exciting opportunity pass you by! GO
FOR IT, AND YOU WILL SMILE WITHIN WEEKS!!!, AS MANY DID
