***Oprah Winfrey and ABC's investigative team 20/20 also can prove
it
can be done***
***Proven by various, highly- respected U.S. TV and radio programs
as
being 100%% legal, feasible and true***
IF A 15 - YEAR OLD BOY COULD MAKE $71,000 IN JUST 5 WEEKS AND OTHER
$250,000 IN FEW MORE WEEKS - SO CAN YOU!!
THIS REALLY CAN MAKE YOU EASY MONEY!! IT WORKS!! BUT YOU HAVE TO
FOLLOW THE LETTER FOR IT TO WORK!!
THIS IS NOT A PYRAMID SCAM!!!
I came across an article similar to this that said you could make
thousands of dollars within Weeks with only an initial investment of
$12.00!
...HERE'S HOW!!
PayPal verifies that this $12 investment program is 100%% legal and
is
a big hit this year see their note below or ask them directly...
For a simple investment of 15-30 minutes and just $12, it is 100%%
worth it to make thousands so quickly.
This is not another scam that takes lots of your hard earned money;
this is a no risk investment that will make you thousands of dollars
very easily and quickly.
If you would like to take part in this opportunity or would like a
bit more information then please see the information below that was
kindly donated to me.
Thank you for using PayPal!"
Turn $12 into $30,000 in only 30 days...here's how! You have most
likely seen or heard about this project on TV programs such as 20/20
and Oprah or you may have read about it in the Wall Street Journal.
If not, here it is below - revealed to you in step-by-step detail.
This program is by no means new.
It has been in existence in many forms for at least a decade. In the
early days, it required a lot more time and effort, as well as an
investment of a few hundred dollars.
However, thanks to PayPal and the Internet, the investment is now
virtually ZERO!
And what's more, the entire process is FASTER, EASIER, and MORE
LUCRATIVE than it has EVER been!
I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it: Make Money
with your PayPal account as shown on Oprah!
"A little while back, I was browsing through news groups and came
across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands
of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $12.00!
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 only
$2.00 to each of the 6 email addresses stated in this article.
Within days, I started getting money coming into my Pay Pal account!
I was shocked!
I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In
my
first week; I made about $50.00, which means that 25 people joined
the
group after they saw my posted messages. By the end of the second
week
I had made a total of over $1000.00!
In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This
is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000.00
and it's still coming in rapidly.
It's certainly worth $12.00, and the few minutes it took to join
PayPal.
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!
Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in, it's that
easy! It's legal. And, your investment is only $12.00.
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.
AGAIN, PLEASE NOTE:
Follow these directions EXACTLY, and $20,000 or more can be yours in
4 to 6 weeks. This program remains successful because of the honesty
and integrity of the participants.
Please continue its success by carefully adhering to the
instructions.
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.
STEP 1:
Take a few minutes to join PayPal: http://www.paypal.com/ PayPal The
Internet's most trusted Internet banking system for your future
income. When creating your PayPal account make sure you use the same
Email address as your user name in the list below so people can send
money to your account.
STEP 2
Once you have a PayPal account running. Send $2.00 dollar donation
from your PayPal account to THE FIRST e-mail address on the list
along
with a note saying "Please add me to your list". Then use PayPal to
post $2 to EACH of the additional 5 Email Addresses below because you
pay people with an email address in PayPal.
To do this you may need to use a credit card, which is very easy,
and
secure so nobody but PayPal may see it.
If you don't have a credit card show this great lucrative offer to
someone that has one and get them to help you pay the $12.
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.
But I looked around and did some homework and found it was perfectly
legal.
Here are the 6 individual Email addresses that you have to send $2
to
through PayPal for this to work properly and for you to receive
money.
(If you don't send the money and decide to post the message with your
name in it anyway, PayPal will instantly pick this up and terminate
your account, immediately, besides the other penalties!!
If you did this you could get into serious trouble because it is
fraud. (So follow the instructions and post the $12 and you will make
lots of money with no hassles.)
Now send $2 to each of these following emails - addresses through
your PayPal account and pay $2 to each the following 6 email-
addresses.
These email addresses are PayPal IDs or usernames.
1.) kayciewh...@yahoo.com
2.) fox...@aol.com
3.) usbn...@gmail.com
4.) quitra....@yahoo.com
5.) celeste96...@aol.com
6.) jamessjoblom@yahoo.com

STEP 3
Now... after paying $2.00 to each of the email placements above, take
the #1 Email Address off the list, move the other Email Addresses up
(6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc.) and add Your Email Address as number
6 on the list.
STEP 4
Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to
the original as possible.
Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups (there are
thousands of groups).
And email your message to as many people you can. Remember, the more
you post and email the more money you make! This is perfectly legal!
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 REMEMBER this program remains successful because of the
honesty
and integrity
of the participants and by their carefully adhering to the
directions.
You are simply paying into a money making chain of participants and
if the chain is broken you are screwing someone else out of their
fair
share.
So, as each person who joins the family and the directions are
followed, six members will be reimbursed for their participation as a
List Developer with two dollars each.
You then insert your Email Address into the list and it will move up
geometrically. So that when your name reaches the #1 position you
will
have potentially received thousands of dollars into your account!!!
What an opportunity for only a total of $12.00!!
$2 for each of the first six people listed above.
To begin with, please send you're joining fee now (which is $2.00 to
each email address listed above) then add your own Email Address to
the list and you're in business!
HOW TO POST TO NEWS GROUPS:
Use Netscape or Internet Explorer and try searching for various
newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.)
Log on any search engine like yahoo.com, google.com, altavista.com,
excite.com, etc., then search with the subject ''millionaire message
board'' or ''money making message board'' or ''employment message
board'' or ''money making discussions'' or ''money making forum'' or
''business message board'' etc.
You will find thousands and thousands of message boards. Click on
them
one by one and you will find the option 'post a new message'. Then
Post this article as a 'new message' by highlighting the text of this
letter and selecting copy then 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! It only takes about 60 seconds to
complete postings on message boards after you catch on.
REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL
MAKE!!
BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200!
That is it!!
You will begin receiving money in your account from around the world
within days!
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
$10.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Each of the 5 persons who
just sent me $2.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my name
at
# 5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5, this is an
additional $50.00 for me. Now those 24 each make 200 minimum posts
with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each.
This brings in an additional $250.00. Those 125 persons turn around
and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and receive 5 replies
each, I will make an additional $1,250.00. Ok, now here is the FUN
part, each of those 625 people post a MINIMUM of 200 letters with my
name at #2 and they receive 5 replies each. That just made me
$6,250.00!!!
Those 3125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups
with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 react, I will
receive an additional $31,250.00!!
With an investment of only $12.00!!
A - M - A - Z - I - N - G - !!
When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest
posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $12.00 to Email
Addresses using PayPal on the list, putting your name at number 6
again.
And start posting again.
The thing to remember is that thousands of people all over the world
are joining the Internet and reading these articles every day.
JUST LIKE YOU ARE NOW!!
This works year round, but the holidays are coming up. Would'nt you
want to get what you want for christmas? Your children or even give
to
charities? Grand Opportunity!
So, can you afford $12.00 to 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.
Remember what goes around comes around, if you don't make the initial
$12 investment you won't receive any of the benefit.
And this program works GREAT by mail too!!
Download a printable file to use by mail. Download and print a PDF
File or a Word Document.
You then place your name and address at the bottom of the list at
the
# 6th position and email it to your friends as well as post this
message (with your email address in the list) to at least 200
newsgroups.
(There are hundreds of 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
$12.00, right?"
So I invested the measly $12.00
Well GUESS WHAT!!

enough to seriously compromise the fund-raising role of these shop
chains).

They are now going after alternative therapy centres that play ambient
music to relax their clients.

The friend who told me this is in a good position to tell them to get
stuffed, as she can just record herself playing mediaeval harp music
from the original manuscripts and use that in her treatment room. But
not every massage or aromatherapy practitioner can do that.

I would also bet that not many people do Reiki or Hopi ear candling
to the accompaniment of Cliff Richard or Andrew Lloyd Webber, who
will doubtless get most of the money.

of very simple or home-made instruments - ukuleles, melodicas,
tin-box banjos, bongos. The ukulele in particular is making a
big comeback. I'm seeing more of these things than I have for
many years.

Is this a general trend? I guess Pete McClelland would be the
best-placed regular here to know, from what he's selling these
days.
