Turn $6 into $50,000

Turn 6$ into 50,000$ It's true.Read this carefully or download to read A while back, I was browsing these newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of CASH within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00 plus stamps! So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam!" But like most of us I was curious and kept reading. It said that if you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and addresses listed in the article, you could make thousands in a very short period of time. You then place your own name and address at the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article to at least 300 newsgroups. (There are about 32,000 of them out there and that's quite a large market pool). No catch, that was it. Even though the investment was a measly $6, I had three questions that needed to be answered before I could get involved in this sort of thing. 1. IS THIS REALLY LEGAL? I called a lawyer first. The lawyer was a little sceptical that I would actually make any CASH but he said it WAS LEGAL if I wanted to try it. I told him it sounded a lot like a chain letter but the details of the system (SEE BELOW) actually made it a legitimate legal business. 2. IS OK WITH THE POST OFFICE OR IS IT MAIL FRAUD? I called them: 1-800-725-2161 and they confirmed THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! (See 18, h sections1302 NS 1341 of Postal Lottery Laws). This clarifies the program of collecting names and addresses for a mailing list. 3. IS IT RIGHT? Well, everyone who sends me a buck has a good chance of getting A LOT of CASH ... a much better chance than buying a lottery ticket!!! So, having these questions answered, I invested EXACTLY $7.92 ... six $1.00 bills and six 32 cent postage stamps ... and boy am I glad I did!!! Within 7 days, I started getting CASH in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon and didn't give it another thought. But the CASH continued coming in. In my first week I made between $20 to $30. By the end of the second week I had a made a total of $1,000.00. In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it was still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000 and it's still coming in ..... It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 stamps !!! 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 CASH than you thought possible by doing something so easy! Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (print it out or download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the CASH come in! It's easy. It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus postage) 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 NOTE: Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue its success by carefully adhering to the instructions. You will now become part of the Mail Order business. 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 CASH 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 4 easy steps to success: STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 6 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope (to prevent thievery). Place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them. You should now have 6 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name and address, and a $1.00 bill. 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. So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal! Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses: #1) J. Thomas 36 Easterly Drive East Sandwich, MA 02537 #2)Christopher L. Sloan 2200 Hickory St. H.S.U. Box #14579 Abilene, TX 79698 #3) Kristen DeJoseph 138 Jansen Street Staten Island, NY 10312 #4) Baraquin Yannick 10 Charlemagne L-1328 Luxemburg Luxemburg #5)Le Huynh Ngoc Phan 75/11 Nguyen Van Cu P1Q5 Ho Chi Minh City Viet Nam #6) Ngocchau Tran 9742 Hibiscus Drive Garden Grove, Ca 92841 STEP 2: Now take the #1 off the list that you see above, move the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, 5 becomes 4, 4 becomces 3, 3 becomce 2, 2 becomes 1 ) and add YOUR Name and address as number 6 on the list. STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at least 300 newsgroups. (I think there are close to 32,000 groups) All you need is 300, but remember, the more you post, the more CASH you make! This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to 18 Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need CASH, you can use it again, and again. PLEASE REMEMBER that this program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants and by their carefully adhering to the directions. Look at it this way. If you are a person of integrity, the program will continue and the CASH that so many others have received will come your way. NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to you, either on a computer or hard copy and keep the notes people send you. This VERIFIES that you are truly providing a service. (Also, it might be a good idea to wrap the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk of mail theft.) So, as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed, six members will be reimbursed for their participation as a List Developer with one dollar each. Your name will move up the list geometrically so that when your name reaches the #1 position you will be receiving thousands of CASH in CASH!!! What an opportunity for only $6.00 ($1.00 for each of the first six people listed above) Send it now, add your own name to the list and you're in business! ---DIRECTIONS ----- FOR HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS 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 letter, and select 'copy' from the edit menu. This will copy the entire letter into the computer's 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 name to the list. Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you want to do your postings in different settings, 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, chat sites, discussions.) 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 through the list of postings in a particular group, click the post message button. You're done with your first one! Congratulations...THAT'S IT! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away, after you get the hang of it, it will take about 30 seconds for each newsgroup! **REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE CASH YOU WILL MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 300** That's it! You will begin receiving CASH from around the world within days! You may eventually want to rent a P.O.Box due to the large amount of mail you will 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.** Now the WHY part: Out of 300 postings, say I receive only 7 replies (a very low example). So then I made $7.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 7 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 300 postings, each with my name at #5 and only 7 persons respond to each of the 7 original 7, that is another $49.00 for me, now those 49 each make 300 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 7 replies each, I will bring in an additional $343.00! Now, those 343 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 300 with my name at #3 and only receive 7 replies each, I will make an additional $2401.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 2401 persons post a MINIMUM 300 letters with my name at #2 and they each only receive 7 replies, that just made me $16,807.00!!! Those 16807 persons will all deliver this message to 300 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 7 persons per 300 Newsgroups react I will receive $117,649.00! With an original investment of only $6.00! And some stamps. AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to names on the list, putting your name at number 6 again. And start posting again. The thing to remember is: do you realize that thousands of people all over the world are joining the internet and reading these articles everyday? JUST LIKE YOU are now!! So, can you afford $6.00 and see if it really works?? I think so... People have said, "what if the plan is played out and no one sends you the CASH? 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? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with thousands of those joining the actual internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will really work. By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages with your name in the list and not sending the CASH to the rest of the people already on the list, you will NOT get as much. Someone I talked to knew someone who did that and he only made about $150.00, and that's after seven or eight weeks! Then he sent the 6 $1.00 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks he had over $10k. This is the fairest and most honest way I have ever seen to share the wealth of the world without costing anything but our time!!! You also may want to buy mailing and e-mail lists for future CASH. Make sure you print this article out RIGHT NOW! Also, try to keep a list of everyone that sends you CASH and always keep an eye on the newsgroups to make sure everyone is playing fairly. Remember, HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY. You don't need to cheat the basic idea to make the CASH!! GOOD LUCK to all and please play fairly and reap the huge rewards from this, which is tons of extra CASH. Please remember to declare your extra income. Thanks once again... "People have asked me if this is really legal. Well, it is! You are using the Internet to advertise your business. What is that business? You are creating a mailing list of people who are interested in home based computer and online business and methods of generating income at home. Remember, people send you a small fee to be added to your mailing list. It is legal. what will you do with your list of thousands of names? That's up to you." So, build your mailing list, keep good accounts, declare the income and pay your taxes. By doing this you prove your business intentions. Keep an eye on the newsgroups and when the cash has stopped coming (that means your name is no longer on the list), you just take the latest posting at the newsgroups, send another $6.00 to the names stated on the list, make your corrections (put your name at #6) and start posting again. NOTES: *1. In some countries, the export of the country's exchange is illegal. But you can get the license to do this from the post office, explaining the above statements (that you have an online business, etc. You may have to pay an extra tax, but that's OK, the amount of the incoming CASH is HUGE! And as I said, a few countries have that restriction . *2. You may want to buy mailing and e-mail lists for future CASH. (Or Database or Spreadsheet software.) *3. If you're really not sure or still think this can't be for real, please print a copy of this article and give it to someone who really needs the CASH, and see what happens. *4. You will start getting responses within 1-2 weeks, it depends. ***ALSO REMEMBER*** SEND YOUR $1 OUT TO EVERYONE ON THE LIST, EVEN IF THEY ARE NOT FROM THE U.S. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? $$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!!$$$!!! _______________________________________ CoolEmail -- Now you're talking.

The cypherpunks list routinely receives posts from hotmail, aol and other domains with the text "help me X", where X = something inadvisable or even illegal. Your query ranks right up there with these apparently clueless yet trolling, provocative solicitations - post something silly, expect silly responses. Paladin Press regularly provides a catalog for bundling with one particular magazine, they advertise in nearly all the magazines of that particular and also in related genres. I have seen their catalogs offered for sale by some reputable book/magazine sellers. Not to mention, diligent searchers can easily find the Paladin Press website. Are you a law enforcement officer searching for a good samaritan to prosecute, or are you just stupid? Don't send me offlist mail.

Comedy On Tap Daily Newsletter For the weekend, baby! The Senate confirmed John Ashcroft to be attorney general, giving President Bush a victory in his first battle with congressional Democrats... ... He should be a lot like Janet Reno was, only a little more feminine... HOW ON EARTH DID PETS.COM BLOW ALL THAT DOUGH? http://www.comedyontap.com/features/tasteless.htm WHAT? The Fox television network has turned down a commercial for a female contraceptive product that its makers wanted to run during "Temptation Island."... ... "This is a show about affairs and illicit sex - we wouldn't want to advertise anything that could be a BAD INFLUENCE!!!" ENTERTAINMENT Backstreet Boy Kevin Richardson is replacing previously announced bandmate Nick Carter as a contestant for "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire's" Rock Star Edition... ... Can he just lip-synch to a really smart person...? POLITICS Horror movie director Wes Craven, the man behind "Scream" and "Nightmare on Elm Street," has made a film of former President Clinton giving a White House tour during his last days in office. The footage will be used for an hour-long documentary that will be shown at the Clinton presidential library in Arkansas... ... I never screamed louder at a shower scene - there wasn't a slasher or anything, I just saw Hillary naked... DEAD, DIVORCED, MARRIED, IN JAIL OR PREGNANT (or just fat) A Texas judge told former Playboy Playmate Anna Nicole Smith to stop lying in her testimony in a family battle over the billion-dollar oil fortune of her late husband. Probate Judge Mike Wood accused Smith on Wednesday of making wildly untruthful allegations against her stepson Pierce Marshall and said he would hold her in contempt of court if she did not answer questions accurately... ... I know how the defense can get her to lie again - ask her how much she weighs... OPENING MOVIE BUZZ - yeah, we hated them all... just shows 'ya we're not owned by the studios... although we open to all offers, mind you... VALENTINE (Warner Bros.) - Hmm. A horror flick about a masked killer stalking nubile young women - gee, I can't believe they didn't screen it for the press! Rated R. BUZZ: Here's what I glommed from the official website: Kate (Marley Shelton), Paige (Denise Richards), Dorothy (Jessica Capshaw) and Lily (Jessica Cauffiel) grew up together, "scorning the nerds and presenting a united front to the school bullies" - whatever the hell that means. They grow up, get careers, but remain friends... as well as remaining single (Ah! Single women. Of course they must be punished!) As Valentine's Day approaches each woman begins receiving creepy Valentines (not as creepy as receiving one from your stepfather, but still...), which a police detective tells them could be coming from some kid they dissed at a Valentine's Day dance way back in junior high. And since none of the women remember this loser, he could be any man, anywhere. (So lemme see - any guy these ladies pick up could be a psychotic scumbag? Isn't that pretty much every night in LA?) Think this sounds good? Go see it. Think it sounds crummy? Well... usually these films aren't previewed for a reason. Ticket buyer beware. HEAD OVER HEELS (Universal) - Monica Potter (who you'll remember from "Patch Adams" - if you haven't self-lobotomized in an effort to destroy all memory of that film) plays a naïve gal from the midwest who comes to the Big Apple to work for the Metropolitan Museum of Art... somewhere this movie will never, ever be shown. She moves in with four supermodels (But of course! It's New York!) and moons over her neighbor Jim (Freddie Prinze Jr.), a certified, grade-A hunk she peeps at from her window. But one night she thinks she's witnessed hunky ol' Jim murder someone, so she and the supermodels begin snooping around to find out whether Jim is a nice guy or just another cute New York psycho. If you can't tell by now that this is pure crap you knocked out a few too many brain cells during that "Patch Adams" lobotomy. Rated PG-13. BUZZ: Full disclosure: I think Freddie Prinze Jr. - while he might be a very nice guy - is easily the worst actor in movies today. And, lo and behold, "Head Over Heels" features yet another in a series of paper-thin, puddle-deep performances from the maestro. The impressive thing is, EVERYTHING in the film is as bad as he is. Oh my God, it's AWFUL! So awful it achieves a kind of majesty - can something really be this grotesque all the way around? Apparently so! It's like some nasty scientific experiment on dead bodies or something... y'know, you don't actually want to see it, but you're glad someone proved the theory. Potter and Prinze are dreadful, and even more dreadful together (they have chemistry, all right - kind of like two substances that, when combined, produce poison gas). The supermodel roomies are played by actual models. 'Nuff said. And the script is like a 13-year-old girl decided to rethink Hitchcock's "Rear Window" - but with cute guys and supermodels! And fart jokes! Can't forget the fart jokes. Hard to believe Hitchcock let those golden opportunities slip past. So, have I made myself clear enough? Good. Hopefully I've saved you from another self-induced lobotomy. You're welcome. Also: THE MILLION DOLLAR HOTEL ON FEBRUARY 2... In 1947, actress/calendar girl Farrah Fawcett was born. She played Jill Munroe on "Charlie's Angels," and was married to Lee Majors, who played "The Six Million Dollar Man'... ... After the divorce he was the THREE million dollar man... In 1966, Woody Allen wed Louise Lasser... ... Unfortunately she didn't give him any children, so he had nobody to date for the next 20 years... MORE WOODY http://www.comedyontap.com/pantheon/allen/allen.html In 1997, police arrested McDonald's employee Mence Powell, 19, for selling marijuana in Happy Meals from the drive-through window... ... They figured it out when his customers kept getting the munchies and circling back into the drive-thru lane... ... On top of that, they got him for asking if they'd like some Coke with their order... In 1997, Connie Hamzy, a the Little Rock, Arkansas, resident known as "Sweet Sweet Connie," told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette that she passed three polygraph tests over the weekend regarding an alleged encounter she had with then-Governor Bill Clinton in 1984. Hamzy is a self-professed sex groupie for rock bands... ... She's a music groupie? Apparently she's never heard him play the saxophone... A LITTLE MORE ABOUT CONNIE: http://www.comedyontap.com/presgirls/hamzy.html In 1997, the Broadway show "Cats," was sued by a woman who said one of the characters was too frisky. A woman says she was sitting in a orchestra seat with her fiancee when actor David Hibbard, dressed as the feline Rum Tum Tugger, came off the stage and attacked her as part of the show on Jan. 30, 1996. The New York Times says Amato filed suit asking for $6 million in punitive and compensatory damages for assault, battery, invasion of privacy and other charges... ... Not to mention the rabies shots... TASTELESS A group of Shriners has sparked a major uproar in Winnipeg after it was reported the fez-festooned members held a men-only fundraiser for sick children that featured nude dancers and public sex acts. The controversy erupted following newspaper reports that a "Gentlemen's Dinner" fundraiser, organized by the Shriners' motor patrol unit, included two nude dancers who climbed on top of a banquet table where several men touched and engaged in oral sex with them in front of hundreds of male guests... ... I guess that can't be described as "feeding the hungry..." FINALLY... You'll be happy to know that we got our financing for the movie "BachelorMan" yesterday. I had this HUGE check in my hand (largest amount of money I've ever held) and I really wanted to impress the tellers at my bank, so I go in there dressed in shorts and black sunglasses. There's six tellers and five of them are female, so I'm thinking, 'great - one of these chicks is really gonna be looking me over after she sees the amount of this check I'm depositing...' So, of course, my turn comes and it's the window with the guy. DAMN! Anyway, we got our money and we're going to make a great film.

Privacybuy.com sucks
by atek3 02 Feb '01

02 Feb '01

Ha, read this lil blurb from their site: PrivateBuy is the only personal payment account that lets you safely and anonymously shop anywhere online. PrivateBuy cloaks your identity, shields your money and offers the same universal acceptance as a credit card. It's the vehicle that ensures your peace-of-mind, security and privacy when shopping online. As a PrivateBuyer you have incredible buying power, protection and anonymity. Your purchases are kept private and off your credit card statement. You'll also stay off marketing and mailing lists. Whether you're concerned about using your credit card all over the Web, worried about identity theft, or just looking for a better way to buy -- PrivateBuy gives you the confidence you need to purchase whatever you want. Ya thats a load of shit! If you ask me they are either working for the government or making a fortune by turning in the idiots who use it under the guise of anonymity. The worst link in the system is payment. to use privacybuy you need to fund your account with a credit card I don't get it. What is the point of paying them a 4 dollar service charge if a 2 dollar subpoena will give away your name address and vital statistics! I'd hate to see the look on the basterds face who orders chemicals from fisher thinking he got away clean, when 20 jack booted thugs come in and kick his door down! Can one of the more educated cypherpunks inform me of the appropriate way to buy and pay for things anonymously online? Thanks atek3
