I'll make a deal with you.  Use your own $5 to get things going, and I'll
reimburse you after you pay me only HALF of the $50k that you'll be
collecting for me.  You'll get $25k for very little effort and you won't
be risking any of your own money!

:      ** FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW EXACTLY ! ! ** 
:  (and within 8 weeks you too will have received $50K CASH! or MORE!)

: 1)  ADDRESS FIVE (5) ENVELOPES with the name and address
:     of the first 5 " Mailing List Brokers"  listed below (#'s 1-5).
:     - Do NOT attempt to cheat - you will only cheat yourself. 

: 2) INSERT A $1 BILL (CASH ONLY) INTO EACH ENVELOPE along with a note
:    that reads, "Please put my name & address into your Mailing List"
:    (Make sure you write legibly your name & address) 
:    - This step is important since you are providing payment for a
:      legitimate service that you are requesting. (See bottom details)

: 3)  SEAL ENVELOPES, APPLY POSTAGE & MAIL - Be sure you have
:     enclosed: a. Your Name & Address, b. Your request, c. $1 bill (cash)

: 4)  DELETE THE TOP (1st)  NAME ON THE LIST BELOW & RENUMBER 
:     the other 7 names by moving each name up one position 
:     (i.e., the second name is now #1, third is #2, etc.,..). Type your name
:     and address as the last (8th) name on the list.
:     - Don't cheat here; Although payment goes only to the first 5 names,
:       having your name last gives the "multi-level" distribution process
:       a chance to achieve an exponential advantage for you while your name
:       hits each pay level on ALL the mass redistributed mailings/postings 
:       (instead of just the few initial postings/mailings. Remember the top
:       names get deleted at each progression).

: 5)  COPY this ENTIRE message (with your name at the bottom of the list)
:     and UPLOAD it onto 10+ different bulletin boards, E-MAIL it to others
:     and/or MASS-MAIL hard copies to a list of "Opportunity Seekers". Use
:     an interesting title in the file's Description/Subject, if posting,
:     that will get the readers' attention so that they too can benefit 
:     (and in turn benefit us all).

: 6)  Within the next few weeks you should get a larger mailbox in order to 
:     accomodate the massive overflow of mailed responses you will be 
:     receiving, which as each step progresses grows exponentially into
:     THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS (expect >$50,000.00 in CASH)!

: 7)   LOG & SAVE THE NAME & ADDRESS of EACH of your responses. 
:      You are being paid ($1.00)  to perform this service. This list will not 
:      only provide evidence of the legitimacy of your business but you can
:      also get additional income from providing that information to a mailing
:      list broker you may find in the yellow pages. The legalities of this 
:      service are discussed in Title 18, Sections 1302 & 1341 of the 
:      Postal Lottery Laws for your reference. Following this plan exactly
:      conforms with those guidelines.

:      By posting/mailing (advertising) this notice to others you'll
: effectively be in the mail order business. This goes along with all 
: the other benefits that come with running a business from your home 
: (like tax advantages). Advertising & Mail Order are perfectly respectable 
: industries which you should feel proud to be a part of, especially once you 
: experience the tremendous wealth you are helping yourself and OTHERS obtain 
: simply by making the relatively easy efforts of passing along this 
: opportunity. 
:      A key to success in any business which deals with other people is 
: to conduct that business HONORABLY, using ethical judgement and 
: values. When you give others the degree of respect and honor you 
: would come to expect for yourself, then it is returned TENFOLD. That
: is what the concept of this plan depends upon, it is imperative and 
: vital that you respect its integrity if you expect to reap its rewards!
:      I sincerely believe that my own success directly correlates to the 
: fact that I participated in this program HONESTLY by following the
: plan exactly and paying each of the first 5 names their due. There are
: security measures built into this plan that account for each participant's
: integrity and your results will be measured reciprocally. If you are in
: it for mere selfish motives, it will be manifested in your results. 

: There are LOTS of HONEST PEOPLE out there! And if you're one too
: then here's your ticket to financial independence.There's no need to 
: apologize for being ambitious, provided you're also honest & sincere.
