 Turn $5 into $50,000!  

 Taking 5 minutes to read this text may be one of the best decisions you  ever made.  

 I could make $50 000 within 4 weeks for an investment of only $5. I  thought it was a huge joke! I spoke to my friends about it and they  thought likewise. But after three days of desperate struggle I decided  I had nothing to lose. I sent $1 by snail mail to each  of the 5 names and addresses specified in the article. I then placed my  name and address in the article and posted it into 200 other newsgroups.

 Two weeks later, I started receiving money in the mail! I could not  believe it! Hundreds of dollars turned into thousands, and in the 4  weeks, I received a total of $48,912. It came from all over the world. Suddenly, in 4 weeks I had made more than I made the previous 2 years!

 If you follow the 3 steps below, there is no reason whatsoever why the  same shouldn't happen to you. This is a perfectly legitimate investment  opportunity. You invest $5 and you receive a return on your investment.  So does the next investor. NOT ILLEGAL, NOT A CHAIN LETTER - PERFECTLY  LEGITIMATE!    OBVIOUSLY, IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED, THEN DON'T PARTICIPATE. BUT  PLEASE PRINT THIS ARTICLE AND GIVE IT TO SOMEONE WHO MAY WISH TO TAKE  ADVANTAGE.    The procedure is very simple.  

 STEP 1. Write your name and address on 5 separate pieces of paper with  the words "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST". Fold a $1 note in each of the pieces of paper and mail them to the  following five addresses:


  1. Jeff Katz, 7 Seir Hill Rd, #41, Norwalk, CT 06850
  2. Eric Johnson 14817 Holden Circle, Horizon TX, 79927
  3. Steven McAllister, 101 Worthington Drive, Marietta GA, 30068
  4. Scott Williams, 1625 Nottingham Place, Lancaster, OH, 43130
  5. Bill Church, 8536 W. 95th Street, Hickory Hills, IL, 60457

STEP 2. Now remove the 1st name on the list, move the other 4 names up (5 becomes 4, 4 becomes 3 etc) and put your name and address as number  5 on the list. You can do this by re-typing this article or simply editing and re-posting it in this or another newsgroup.  

 STEP 3. Post your amended article to at least 200 new groups (there are over
 17,000 of them).  

 You are now in the Mail Order Investment Business and you will start  receiving $1 returns by mail within a week or two. The more newsgroups  you post to, the bigger your return will be. You may want to rent a  Post Office Box to handle the volume of mail you are likely to receive.  If you wish to remain anonymous, you can use a pseudonym such as  "The Manager" or "The Investor", but make sure your address is correct!  

 NOW LET ME TELL YOU WHY THIS SYSTEM WORKS!    Of every 200 postings I made, I received an average of 5 replies, YES -  ONLY 5, each with a $1 bill enclosed. You make $5 for every 200  postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 5.

 Each person who sent you $1, now also makes let's say,only 200  additional postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 4, i.e. 1000 postings.  On average therefore, 50 people will send you $1 with your name at  number 4. You make $50.

 Your 50 new agents make 200 posting each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 3  or 10 000 postings - average return 500 at $1 each is $500. They  make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 2 = 100,000 postings

  • 5,000 returns at $1 each = $5,000.

 Finally, 5,000 people make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 1  and you get a return of $50,000 before you name drops off the list.  AND THAT'S IF EVERYONE DOWN THE LINE ONLY MAKES 200 POSTINGS! Total  income in one cycle = $55,500.  

 From time to time, when your name is no longer on the list, you take  the latest posting that is appearing in the newsgroups, SEND OUT  ANOTHER $5 TO THE NAMES THAT ARE ON THE LIST, PUT YOUR NAME IN  AT NUMBER 5 AND START POSTING AGAIN. Remember, 200 postings is only  a guideline. The more you post, the greater the return.

 Let's review the reasons why you should do this: THE ONLY COST FACTORS  ARE 5 STAMPS, 5 ENVELOPES, AND 5 $1 BILLS. Anyone can afford five  dollars to put into such an effortless investment with SPECTACULAR  RETURNS.    Some people have said to me "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 how many Internet Users there are? Do you realize how  many times this scheme can be utilized over and over again - with  COMPLETELY NEW people participating?  

 There are not HUNDREDS, NOT EVEN THOUSANDS, BUT HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS  OF NEW INTERNET USERS EVERY MONTH!    Remember, read the instructions carefully and play FAIRLY...that's  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 newsgroup postings to make sure everyone is playing fairly. You know where your name should be.

Don't wait until this offer is taken by someone else. Become part of this successful venture now!
