> Hello,
> 
>   You have just received the letter that will change your life forever. 
> This email contains six sections;  TESTIMONY, LEGALITY, MECHANICS, DETAILS,
> METHODS and SUMMARY.  Please read through each section very carefully.  This
> a great opportunity to make a substantial amount of money with as little 
> as $6.00 invested with two hours time! 
>   You may or may not have read emails like this one and thought is was too
> good to be true, but it's real!  This is the best of any letters you may or 
> may not have received because this letter provides you with the complete 
> information and tools you will need to be successful and affirm that this 
> is perfectly legal!  Please read through all sections and follow the 
> simple instructions step by step.

> Hopefully my name is still on the list below. I am a retired attorney,  and
> about two years ago a man came to me with a letter. The letter he  brought me
> is basically the same as the letter in front of you now.  He asked me to
> verify the fact that this letter was legal. I told him that I would review it
> and get back to him. When I first read the letter I thought it was some
> off-the-wall idea to make money. A week later I met again with my client to
> discuss the issue. I told him that the letter originally brought to me was
> not 100% legal. My client asked me to alter the letter to make it 100% legal.
> I advised him to make a small change in the letter and it would be all right.
>   I was curious about the letter, so he told me how it works. I thought it
> was a long shot, so I decided against participating. Before my client left,
> I asked him to keep me updated as to his results. About two months later he
> called to tell me that he had received over $800,000 in cash! I didn't
> believe him so he asked me to try the plan and see for myself. I thought
> about it for a couple of days and decided that there was not much to lose. I
> followed the instructions exactly and 
> mailed out 200 letters. Sure enough, the money started coming! It came slowly
> at first, but after three weeks I was getting more than I could open in a
> day. After about three months the money stopped coming. I kept a precise
> record of my earnings and at the end it totaled $868,439.00.
>   I was earning a good living as a lawyer, but as anyone in the legal
> profession will tell you, there is a lot of stress that comes with the job. I
> told myself if things worked out I would retire from practice and play golf.
> I decided to try the letter again, but this time I sent 500 letters out.
> Well, three months later I had totaled $2,344,178.00!!! I just couldn't
> believe it. I met my old client for lunch to find out how this exactly works.
> He told me that there were a few similar letters  going around. What made
> this one different is the fact that there are six names on the letter, not
> five like most others. That fact alone resulted in far more returns. The
> other factor was the advice I gave him in making sure the whole thing was
> perfectly legal, since no one wants to risk doing anything illegal.  I bet by
> now you are curious about what little change I told him to make. Well, if you
> send a letter like this out, to be legal, you must sell something if you
> expect to receive a dollar.
> I told him that anyone sending a dollar out must receive something in return.
> So when you send a dollar to each of the six names on the list, you must
> include a  slip of paper saying, "Please put me on your mailing list" and
> include your name and mailing address. Your phone # is optional. This is the
> key to the program! The item you will receive for a dollar you send to the
> six names below, is this letter and the right to earn thousands. We will be
> working together to improve each others lives!
> (Responses vary and income could be more or less than stated above)
> 
> ***************************************************************************
> **************************  LEGALITY  *************************************
> ***************************************************************************
> 
> This is basically a mail order opportunity.  As said above, you must receive
> something in return for money put forth.  For everyone who sends $1.00, you
> must in return put them on a mailing list.  Keep it on paper, computer or
> whatever is most convenient for you. You don't have to do anything with this
> list, just keep it updated with everyone's address who sends you money.  This
> is completely legal and you are welcome to verify it yourself by calling the
> US Post Office at 1-(800)-725-2161.  All extra income must be declared at tax
> time.  The sender of this letter assumes no responsibilities for any
> transactions that take place.  Total sums of money will vary due to response
> and number of letters sent. 
> Testimony was given by an anonymous source.  Each individual is conducting
>  a mail opportunity and is not responsible for letters sent out by other mail
> opportunist.  This is legal!  (Refer to title 18, Section 1302 & 1342 of the
> US Postal and Lottery Laws)

> So how does this work?  How could I potentially earn a substantial amount of
> money with such an insignificant investment?  The numbers are ASTOUNDING!!!
>  Provided here is a conservative example of how your mailing opportunity
> could earn you more money than you could DREAM!  Assume for example you get a
> 7.5% return rate, which is very
> conservative.
> 1) When you mail out 200 letters, 15 people will send you $1.00.
> 2) Those 15 mail out 200 letters, and 225 people will send you $1.00
> 3) Those 225 mail out 200 letters, and 3,375 people will send you $1.00
> 4) Those 3,375 mail out 200 letters, and 50,625 people will send you $1.00
> 5) Those 50,625 mail out 200 letters, and 759,375 people will send you $1.00
> At this point your name drops off the list, but so far you have received
> $813,615.00!!!!!
> 
>   It works every time, but how well depends on how many letters you send 
> out.  In the example above, you mail out 200 letters, if you mailed out  
> 500 letters, you would have received $2,006,917!!  Check the math yourself, 
> I want you to, but I guarantee it is correct!  With this kind of return, 
> you've got to try it. Try it once and you will do it again!!!
>   Why 6 names instead of 5?  As shown above in the math, if you stopped at 5
> names you would have received $54,240.00.  Why stop there?  With 6 names you
> could receive approximately 15 times that amount!  OVER $800,000.00!!!!!  
> And if you mailed out 500 letters, well you get the idea!
>
> ****************************************************************************

> Excited?  Here is what you need to do.  Follow the simple instructions below
> exactly, and in about three months you will receive AMAZING amounts of

> (Listed as A, B and C).
>

> catch the eye!!!

> 3) Now go to the message part of the box and retype this letter exactly as it

> number 6 and move the rest up)
> 
> 4) When your done typing in the WHOLE letter, click on 'FILE' above the send
> button.

> (click the 'SEND' button in the top left corner)
> 
> 6) This is where you post all 200! OK, go to ANY newsgroup article and click

> shaded.
>                       NOW POST AWAY!!
> 
> FOR INTERNET EXPLORER USERS:
> 
> 1)  It's just as easy, holding down the left mouse button, highlight this

> YOU WILL MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**
> 
> (B)  POST OFFICE MAILING LISTS
> 
> If you are going to use the traditional US Postal Service to do this program,
> you will want to order 200 names from a mailing list company.  Two that have

> Seekers" labels)
> 
> S.E. Ring Mailing List ($39 / 300)

> 
> (C)  BULK EMAIL
> 
> There are a few programs out there you can buy for a small price that will
> enable you to send mail out to thousands of people at the same time. 
> A couple examples of this software is listed below.  If you take this route
> to send out this letter, I beg you to run the mathematics of it above and
> see how much you could potentially pull in.  With this amount of mailing 
> and only a 1% return rate, which is unheard of, will send you into early
> retirement:
> 
> Ready Aim Fire @ "http://microsyssolutions.com"
> 
> and even better...
> 
> Extractor @ "http://extractor.com"
>  
> or...
> 
> Stealth @ "http://www.netpromos.com"
> 
> That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within 
> day's! You may eventually want to rent a P.O. Box due to the large amount
> of mail you 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** 
> (The companies listed above are in no way associated with this email. 
> They are simply suggested resources so you can be successful. When you 
> are successful, we all are successful!)
