MAKE MONEY WITH $6 - AS SEEN ON OPRAH & 20/20
**Proven by various, highly-respected U.S. TV and Radio programs as being 100% legal, feasible and true.** **Oprah Winfrey and ABC's investigation team 20/20 also prove it can be done.*** For a simple investment of 15-30 minutes and just $6, it is 100% worth it to make thousands so quickly.
From PayPal: "Dear Member, it has come to our attention that there is a paypal investing opportunity floating around at the moment you may have heard or seen the $6 investment. You may have even taken part in it. Well we have been asked a lot of questions about this investment the answer is yes it does work and yes it is safe to use providing you follow the rules it is legal and has made a big hit on the internet this year. If you would like to take part in this scheme or would like a bit more information then please see the attached file that was kindly donated to us. Thank you for using PayPal!"
Turn $6 into $15,000 in only 30 days...here's how! - revealed to you in step-by-step detail. 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 $6.00!
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 $1.00 to each of the 6 email addresses stated in this article. 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 thousands) 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 $6.00, right?" So I invested the measly $6.00 Well GUESS WHAT!!
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 $25.00, 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 $6.00, 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 $6.00. 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.
Here are the 3 easy steps to success: REQUIREMENTS: You must have a verified PayPal account. If you do not have an account, take a few minutes to join Paypal FREE: www.paypal.com Paypal is 100% secure and is used by millions of people worldwide. 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 1 once you have a PayPal account running, use Paypal to pay $1 to EACH of the 6 Email Addresses below because you pay people with an email address in Paypal. FOLLOW
THESE EASY STEPS: 1. Log in to PayPal. Go to SEND MONEY tab.
2. Type in Recipients name: (Email address) Subject:: "EMAIL LIST" Category:"SERVICE" Comments: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR EMAIL LIST".
3. Next screen: CHECK PAYMENT DETAIL - Select "NO SHIPPING ADDRESS REQUIRED"
4. Send Money. THAT'S IT. YOU'RE DONE!! What you are doing is creating a service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate service and you are paying for it! Send $1.00 to EACH of these Email addresses:
1) [email protected]
2) [email protected]
3) [email protected]
4) [email protected]
5) [email protected]
6) [email protected]
STEP 2 Now,... AFTER paying $1.00 to each of the email addresses 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 3 Keep this article as close to the original as possible. Post this 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! –
---------------¬--- HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS & MESSAGE BOARDS--------------- Step #1) You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own posting. Simply put your CURSOR at the beginning of this letter and drag your CURSOR to the bottom of this document, and select 'copy' from the edit menu. This will copy the entire letter into your computer's temporary memory.
Step #2) Open a blank 'Notepad' file and place your cursor at the top of the blank page. From the 'Edit' menu select 'Paste'. This will paste a copy of the letter into notepad so that you can add your email to the list.
Step #3) Save your new Notepad file as a .txt file. If you want to do your postings in different sittings, you'll always have this file to go back to.
Step #4) Use Netscape or Internet Explorer and try searching for various newsgroups, on-line forums, message boards, bulletin boards, chat sites, discussions, discussion groups, online communities, etc. EXAMPLE: go to any search engine like yahoo.com, google.com, altavista.com, excite.com - then search with subjects like millionaire message board? or money making message board? or opportunity message board? or money making discussions? or business bulletin board? or money making forum? etc. You will find thousands & thousands of message boards. Click them one by one then you will find the option to post a new message.
Step #5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new message by highlighting the text of this letter and selecting 'Paste' from the 'Edit' menu. Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that everyone sees as they scroll thru the list of postings in a particular group, click the post message button. You're done with your first one! Congratulations! 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!
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 one dollar 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!!! 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 $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 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 $25.00 for me. Now those 25 each make 200 minimum posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each. This brings in an additional $125.00. 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 $625.00. Oh, 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 $3,125.00!!! 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 $15,625.00!! With an investment of only $6.00!!
A - M - A - Z - I - N - G - !!

this is a pyramid scheme and if you know simple math, by the time you sign up, you'd be so far down the level of the pyramid that you'd need more than the total population on earth to support it.

also, this should probably be closed.

This is actually older than the internet... First time I saw this was sometime in the (early-mid) 90's on a mailing (yes, snail mail) and the currency was dollar bills... Yes, Washingtons.
It was bullshit then, and it is bullshit now, only stopping to have changed mediums of delivery in the meantime.
