IT IS NOT A PYRAMID NOR A SCAM. THIS IS A MONEY MAKING PROGRAM
SUPPOERTED BY MANY INTERNET USERS JUST READ ON AND YOU WILL BE GLAD
YOU DID IT . IT ONLY TAKES A FEW MINUTES.
---------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------
I saw an article in an internet newsgroup telling me I could make
$50,000 or more within a month for an investment of only $5.
I thought it was a silly joke. If making money was that easy I would
have been richer long time ago. I spoke to my friends, and they all
agreed it was some kind of scam. I can't stand scams, because usually
someone gets burned, and I didn't want it to be me. Of course, I
rejected the idea at first. After a short period of about one week I
thought : "I have already heard of such things. But on the
Internet?!?!? ". I made my own caluculation carefully, which I provied
below, trying to prove why such a scam won't work. After many many proof
reading I concluded: "Amazing... It works and it's perfectly
legitimate!!!" I decided that even if I had to throw $5 into the
fire, it was my decision based on my calucuIation. Besides I can test my
therory for OMLY 5 dollars!!! Carrying out such an experiment has never
been this easier. Just think of the amount of money those marketing
consultants would ask for to do this type of huge reseach. The
important thing, however, is that not only do I think it will work but
also it DID work for so many people already!
---------------------------------------------------------
Follow this simple, perfectly legal 3 step procedure and you can't go
wrong;
STEP 1.
Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on five seperate
pieces of paper along with the words, "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING
LIST." (In this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone;
you're paying for a legitimate service.) Now fold that paper with your
name and address around a $1 bill. (The folding of the paper around the
bill will insure its arrival to the recipient. THIS STEP IS
IMPORTANT!!) PLEASE, NO CHEQUES OR MONEY ORDERS!
Then MAIL TO THE FOLLOWING ADDRESSES:
1. Landon
#1 Lakeway Drive
Conroe, Texas 77304 USA
2. Beyond Technology
5641 Apgar Street
Houston, Texas 77032 USA
3. Daniel DeKonty
Lee College #88
1120 N. Ocoee Street
Cleveland, TN 37320 USA
4. Don Noel
222 NE Dogwood St #C103
Issaquah, WA 98027 USA
5. Admin
Ohno-cho Post Office, P.O. Box 7
Ohno-cho, Ibi-gun
Gifu, JAPAN 501-05
STEP 2
Now remove the top name from the list, and move the other four names
up. In other words, #5 becomes #4 and so on. Put your name as the
fifth one on the list. Use a simple text editor such as Notepad, in
your "accessories" window (If you have MS-Windows), or DOS editor. In
fact, any editor will do.
STEP 3
Post the article to at least 1,000 newsgroups. There are at least
17,000, so it shouldn't be hard to find that many. Try posting to
as many newsgroups as you can, and the bigger the newsgroup is, the
more people are to see your message!
TIP OF ADVICE
You are now in the an order services business, and should start
seeing returns within a week or two. If you wish to remain anonymous,
you may use a psuedonym, call yourself "The Manager", "The Investor",
whatever but make sure your address is correct.
Of course, THE MORE THE NEWSGROUP YOU POST TO , THE BIGGER THE
RETURN IS .
---------------------------------------------------------
Here are what some others said..."Well, two weeks later,I began
recieving money in the mail! I couldn't believe it! Not just a little ,
I mean big bucks! At first only a few hundred dollars, then a week
later, a couple of thousand ,then BOOM . By the end of the fourth week ,
I had Recieved nearly $47,000.00. It came from all over the world. And
every bit of it perfectly legal and on the up and up. I've been able to
pay off all my bills and still had enough left over for a nice vacation
for me and my family.
Markus Valppu says "he made $57,883 in four weeks."
Dave Manning claims "he made $53,664 in the same amount of time."
Dan Shepstone says "it was only $17,000 for him."
Do I know these folks? No, but when I read how they say they did it,
it made sense to me. Enough sense that I'm taking a similar chance with
$5 of my own money.
REMEMBER...ALL THIS COSTS YOU IS $5.00, 5 STAMPS, AND 5
ENVELOPES... and FREQUENT TRIPS TO YOUR MAILBOX TO COLLECT YOUR
INVESTMENT!
---------------------------------------------------------
Now, here is why the system works:
-Of every 1,000 posts you make, you'll receive approximately 25
responses. This data is based on a statistics from our predesesors'
experience. Yes, only 25. You make $25 for every 1,000 posts with your
name at #5.
-Each person who sent you $1 now also makes 1,000 additional
postings with your name at #4. ie. 25,000 postings. On average
therefore, each of 625 people will send you $1 with your name at #4.
$625.
-Your 625 new agents make 1,000 postings each with your name at #3
or 625,000 postings. Average return 15,625 people = $15,625.
-They make 1,000 postings each with your name at #2, that is 15,625,000
postings. It generates 390,625 return at $1 each. $390,625.
-Finally, 390,625 people make 1,000 postings with your name at #1
and you get a return of $390,625,000 before your name drops off the
list. AND THAT IS IF EVERYONE DOWN THE LINE MAKES 1,000 POSTINGS!
Total income in one cycle=$1,383,465. The following table shows what is
explained above . Verify the number for yourself.

Your estimated reward =25+625+15625+390625+9765625=1,383,465
------------------------------------------------------
From time to time, when you see your name no longer on the list,
you take the latest posting that appears in the newsgroups, and
send out another $5, and put your name at #5, and start posting again.
Remember, 1,000 postings is only a guideline. the more you post, the
greater the return.
Lets review why you should do this. THE ONLY COST IS $5. Anyone
can afford $5 for such an effortless investment with such SPECTACULAR
RETURNS.
Some people may ask. "what happens if the scheme is played out and
no one sends me any money? " Big Deal, so you lose $5-but what are the
chances of that happening ?? Do you realize that NOBODY cares for the
LEGAL chance of winning such a BIG money as 50,000.00 $$$$ ????
and all for a microscopic investment of five separate dollars? Just
think of all of the new Internet users that join the net every day!!!
There are millions of internet users, and millions of new net
surfers every month !!! This is the great plus of the Internet,
people all over the world can hear you and listen carefully if you talk
reasonably. Everyone will take that chance ! I agree, if it wasn't
the Internet, and was a small circle of people, the chance
wouldn't have been so small. The amount of money had to be 200 times
bigger, and the chances were zero. It wouldn't succeed.
But here, on the Internet, it is a giant village, where new
thousands of members join in every day ! You CAN'T lose !!!! Adding to
this, don't be content with only $50,000. You could make more! I'll
show you another example. What happens if you post to 2,000 newsgroup
and everyone else down the line do the same!

the only way this will work. Get a printout so you can refer back to
this article easily.
Try to keep a list of everyone that sends you money and always
keep an eye on the postings to make sure everyone is playing fairly.
You know where your name should be.
REMEMBER-HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. YOU DO NOT NEED TO

SO WE CAN ALL ENJOY THE INTERNET
GOLD MINE.
GOOD LUCK FOR YOU ALL, AND REMEMBER, PLAY FAIR ADN YOU'LL WIN
I don't want to mention what might happen to those
who won't.
AGAIN, SEE YOU NEXT TIME WITH SOMETHING YOU WANTED FOR A LONG
TIME !!!
