Fellow Debtor: Hello! Would you like to make thousands of dollars, quickly, legally, with NO CATCH? Then keep reading....please take five minutes to read this article it will change your life, just like it did mine. It's true! You can make up to or over $50,000 dollars in 4-6 weeks, maybe sooner! I SWEAR IM NOT LYING TO YOU, AND THIS IS NOT A SCAM! If you're interested, keep reading; if you're not, I apologize for wasting your time. My name is John Gilmore. A little while ago, my life was miserable. In September 1995 my car was repossessed and the bill collectors were hounding me like you wouldn't believe. I was laid off and my unemployment checks had run out. I had just moved in with my lover High and we were $95,000 in debt! I couldn't make the payments and the bank repossessed my car. I remember the day my lover Hugh phoned me, crying. The landlord had shown up at the house with an eviction notice because we hadn't paid the rent in three and a half months. We stayed at our relatives until we found a new apartment that we could afford. Talk about embarrassing! My life sucked, and it seemed to be getting worse every day. The only escape I had from the pressures of failure was my computer and my modem. I longed to turn my avocation into my vocation. Things are different now. In January 1997 my boyfriend and I went on a ten day cruise to the tropics. I bought a brand new Lincoln Town Car with CASH in December 1996. I am currently building a new home in Sausalito, with a private pool, boat slip, an a beautiful view of the bay from my breakfast room table and patio. I will never have to work again. Today I am RICH! I have earned over $800,000.00 (Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars) to date and will become a millionaire within 4 or 5 months. Anyone can do the same. I own and rent out three large homes in San francisco. My own house is worth over $450,000. My lover drives a Mercedes and I drive a Porsche. I have more money in the bank than I think I could ever spend! When I buy something I always pay cash, and let me tell you, it's a powerful feeling to finally have control of my life. I have no financial worries anymore. I couldn't ask to be happier. My life is perfect! Best of all, I have time to enjoy life. No more 50 and 60 hour weeks, working two jobs, just trying to pay the bills. No more fighting with my lover from the stress of never having enough money for grocieries. I work about three hours a day. The rest of the time is left to have fun, to do the things I really love. I finally have time to spend with my family. That's better than all the money in the world! My favorite thing is to go on picnics with my boyfriend I also like to travel. My lover and I just got back from a three week second honeymoon in Cancun. I'm not tryng to brag or impress you with my wealth. What I'm trying to do is prove to you that if I wasn't lucky enough to have learned about PGP that day, I would still be poor, probably bankrupt. It was only because of that amazing money-making encryption program that I was able to become debt free, and very wealthy. I hate to think of where my boyfriend and I would have been today." It works because of basic mathematical and statistical principles. This process is somewhat similar to a pyramid process, only bigger and broader. It is definitely more profitable for all who participate. This money-making program works perfectly every time, 100% of the time. I have NEVER failed to earn $50,000.00 or more whenever I wanted. Best of all, you never have to leave home except to go to your mailbox or post office. Follow these instructions exactly and you could make $100,000 in the next 30 days. This program REALLY works. It makes money for those who use it honestly! Take the time to read it COMPLETELY! First of all, yes, this is another one of those "let's try to make some easy money fast" things that you often see on the NET. If you wish to find out more and possibly participate, read on. If you do not believe in this sort of thing, please move on to the next post - BUT DO NOT FLAME ME FOR "ABUSE" OF THE NET. Fact is, this wonderful electronic world is for the exchange of ideas and experimentation, so why not try something new? Mathematically it works out, so it is all up to your honesty. This is no scam. It is perfectly legal. Forward this around to all of your friends. Tell them to get involved too. I know, ordinarily, we disregard these letters because they usually don't work like they are supposed to, but this ONE is DIFFERENT! Ray Arachelian used this legal program last year and made $82,360 in cash the first time he used it. Needless to say, he quit his job at Earthweb LLC immediately paid off all debts in full, and started another mailing. Believe me, this is an EASY opportunity. You can do this all on your computer, by "JUST PRESSING A FEW BUTTONS". You will EASE YOUR FINANCIAL PRESSURES, and begin to make GOOD things happen for you and your family. Knowing public key cryptography changed my life completely. It brought me success, wealth, happiness, anonymity, freedom and time to be with my friends who I love. But most importantly, it gave me peace of mind. This MLM will change your life, too! It will give you everything you need and allow you to solve ALL your money problems. Of course, you don't have to take my word for it. You can try it out for yourself. This is going to sound like a con, but in fact it works! The person who is now #3 on the list was #4 when I got it, which was only a few days ago. Five dollars is a small investment in your future. Forget the lottery for a week, and give this a try. It can work for ALL of us. Why am I willing to share this secret knowledge with you when it's worth so much? To make money? Not even close! First of all, I already have all the money and possessions I'll ever need. Second, I don't stand to lose any money by telling you how to make money for yourself. It doesn't involve any competition at all. Third, nothing pleases me more than helping out others who recognize an incredible opportunity and jump right on it. I wasted quite a bit of money sending away for one money- making scheme after another. I found out what you probably already know. They all turned out to be garbage. The only one who made any money were the companies who sold them, like RSA. About six months ago I received the enclosed post in letter form. I ignored it. I received about five more of the same letter within the next two week.I ignored them also. Of course, I was tempted to follow through and dreamed of making thousands, but I was convinced it was just another gimmick and could not possibly work. In October 1996, I received a letter in the mail telling me how I could earn $50,000.00 or more whenever I wanted. I was naturally very skeptical and threw the letter on the desk next to my computer. It's funny though, when you are desperate, backed into a corner, your mind does crazy things. I spent a frustrating day looking through the want ads for a job with a future. The pickings were sparse at best. That night I tried to unwind by booting up my computer and reading several newsgroups. I read several of the messages posted and then glanced at the letter laying next to the computer. All at once it became clear to me. I now had the key to my dreams. I was wrong! About three weeks later I saw this same letter posted on a local bulletin board in Montreal. I liked the idea of giving it a try with my computer. I didn't expect much because I figured, if other people were as skeptical as I, they would not be too quick to part with $5.00. But, I BUY LOTTERY TICKETS WEEKLY IN CALIFORNIA AND HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT BUT TICKET STUBS! This week I decided to look at this as my weekly lottery purchase. I addressed the envelopes and mailed out $1.00 in each as directed. Two weeks went by and I didn't receive anything in the mail. The fourth week rolled around and I couldn't believe what happened! I can not say that I received $50,000.00, but it was definitely well over $35,000.00! For the first time in 10 years I got out of debt. It was great. Of course, it did not take me long to go through my earnings, so I am using this excellent money opportunity once again. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND GET READY TO ENJOY! I realized that with the power of the computer I could expand and enhance this money making formula into the most unbelievable cash flow generator that has ever been created. I substituted the Usenet newsgroups in place of the post office and electronically did by computer what others were doing by mail. Now only a few letters are mailed manually. Most of the hard work is speedily downloaded to other bulletin boards throughout the world. If you believe that some day you deserve that lucky break that you have waited for all of your life, simply follow the easy instructions below. Your dreams WILL come true. This PGP MLM is completely different. It's unlike anything you could ever imagine! I used to be "the little guy". Poor, trying to make ends meet (and losing) and with no opportunity whatsoever. And now it's my turn to give something back to the "little guy". My PGP MLM is incredibly simple. Anyone can use it. You can get started for almost NO MONEY ($5) and the risk is ZERO! You don't need special training or even a high school education. There's no physical labor involved. It doesn't matter how young or how old you are. It's simple enough for a child to learn in a couple hours. You can use PGP in the comfort of your home or even while your on vacation! I'll tell you more about this amazing MLM: With the PGP MLM the money rolls in FAST. If you can follow easy instructions you can get started in a single afternoon and have CASH in your pocket the next morning! In fact, this just might be the fastest, most honest, legal method to make money ever invented! It's risk-free and it's not a dangerous gamble. Everything you do is proven and GUARANTEED. You can get started for absolutely nothing. The method is so simple, it would be hard to make a mistake even if you tried! This is a VERY safe way to get cash. Making money with PGP is a snap. You'll be amazed at how easy it really is. You can work whenever you want. You're not tied down to anything or anybody. You're your own boss and you make your own hours. One of the nicest things about this MLM is that anyone can do it in their own home. No office. No equipment. No staff. No overhead. NO hassles. It doesn't even matter where you live. It's perfect for students, homemakers, kids, seniors and anyone who likes the idea of being insanely rich! It's also perfect if you're just looking for a little bit of extra cash. PGP will blow your mind! When you use it to make money you never have to try to convince anybody of anything. There's no door-to-door selling, no telemarketing and no real estate or anything that involves personal contact. So you don't have to be a good sales person because there are no sales! PGP is completely legal and honest. You'll sleep good at night knowing that you are providing a very valuable key escrow service. You'll be proud of what you are doing. Professional care has been taken to insure that this Marketing Plan does NOT violate any laws! (Reference U.S. Code, Title 18 Section 302,1343, and TITLE 39, Section 3005). You're probably sceptical. I wouldn't expect less from you. It just shows you have good business sense. One enterprising young man learned to escrow PGP keys as described here and tried it his first day and made $2,000 profit in just a few hours. "This is the ultimate lazy man's way to riches. You'll be amazed at how easy it is. And you may very easily do better than $2,000 with the step-by-step instructions he will send you. Thanx John." Another man, from Chicago, lined up a $30,000.00 profit in his first two months. Now he works three days a week and takes the rest of the month off. "Gilmore's 'Incredible 7-Step Path to Success' is a MUST for anyone who contemplates making huge amounts of money as an independant entrepreneur." "I never really believed those success stories...never thought I'd be one of them...using PGP, in just 8 months I made over $203,000...made over $22,000 in the last two and a half weeks! It's simple...easy...very fast...Mr. Gilmore, thank you for your Cypherpunks MLM." "If you'd like to make some quick cash, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for. This is good and honest money. This MLM could make you more money then you would know what to with, though I'm sure you could figure out something! I was supplied with detailed instructions and cash was available the very next day. Thank you John!" "I'm amazed at my success! By using PGP I made over $600,000 in five months. That's more than 35 times what I used to make in a year. (I quit my job after using PGP for 2 weeks!) My whole life I was waiting for this miracle! Thank you John Gilmore." "... Your plan is awesome! I never expected something so different and easy that will actually make me an easy $3,000.00 on a weekly basis. A GREAT many thanks to you." ".... as an attorney, I come across a lot of money making opportunities, but I never even heard of anything like this before." "This is without a doubt the most powerful millionaire-maker in history.!" "Two years ago, I mailed you fifty dollars in sheer desperation for a better life... One year ago, from using PGP, a man called and offered me a partnership... I grossed over $160,000 cash business in seven months! You are a God sent miracle to me. Thank you Micheal and God Bless you and your family." "He does more than give general ideas. He gives people an easy to follow, A to Z plan to make big money." "I didn't believe you when you said PGP could make me money by the next morning. Man, was I wrong! By the VERY NEXT MORNING $7200 poured in, in less than 24 hours!! I am still dumbfounded to tell you the honest truth. To anyone who is considering using PGP: Just Do It! I was sceptical at first but trust me the $5 is well worth it! You literally make it back in a day. To the authors of PGP: thank you for making me rich rich rich! I'm not done using your plan yet! One man claims he and his wife can "make a million dollars in a few hours while watching television." PGP key escrow has been named the "most amazing money-making, life-changing, best-kept secret EVER!" "If you can't become a millionaire with this program, you can't become a millionaire at all." That's probably true. I heard an ex-auto worker from Detroit was one of the first to put PGP to work. He had been downsized recently from one of the big auto makers. Simply put, he had been laid off with no hope of returning soon. He took a chance on himself and, that' s right!.... He downloaded PGP and followed the easy instructions. Word has it within three weeks he made over $4,000.00. And this was just in his spare time. As you can tell by now, I've found something pretty good. I think I've come across the sweetest money-making program you could ever imagine. Remember- I GUARANTEE IT! Usually it takes big money to make big money. This is the exception. With PGP you can start in your spare time with almost no money. But you don't have to start small and you don't have to stay small. You can go as fast and as high as you wish. The size of your profits are totally up to you. I can't guarantee how much money you'll make by using PGP, because that part's up to your needs, your wants and your dreams. And there you have it. At last I've explained this remarkable program in a special money-making plan. I call it "GILMORE'S INCREDIBLE PLAN TO WEALTH". Some call it a miracle. Others call it "the crypto program that changed my life and gave me astounding wealth." You'll probably call it "The Money Program". You'll learn everything you need to know step-by-step. So you too can put this amazing money making program to work for you and make ALL THE MONEY YOU WANT. Do you realize what this means? You can use this incredible program FREE and without any risk. And if for ANY reason you are not 100% satisfied after using the MLM for 30 days, I will send you your $5 back, PLUS an extra $20 CASH, for absolutely FREE, just for giving PGP an honest effort according to the simple, easy to follow instructions! So if you'd like to make a quick ten grand in 24 hours this is just for you! I GUARANTEE IT! And with my guarantee there's absolutely NO RISK ON YOUR PART! I just read an article in an Internet newsgroup describing how to make $50,000.00 in only one month from a $5.00 investment. Of course I thought this was rediculous ,or some type of pyramid. I talked it over with my family, an attorney, and my friends, and they all agreed it was some sort of scam.I hate scams because usually someone gets burned, and I didn't want it to be me! I blew it off for a few weeks then saw another one in a newsgroup I go to alot and thought, "Maybe this is legitimate!". Besides, whats $5.00 , I spend more than that in the morning on my way to work on coffee and meals for the day. Well, two weeks later,I began recieving money in the mail! I couldn't believe it! Not just a little , I mean big bucks! At first only a few hundred dollars, then a week later, a couple of thousand , then BOOM . By the end of the fourth week , I had recieved nearly $47,000.00. It came from all over the world.And every bit of it perfectly legal and on the up and up. I've been able to pay off all my bills and still had enough left over for a nice vacation for me and my family. Not only does it work for me, it works for other folks as well. Ray Arachelian says he made $57,883 in four weeks. Zach Babayco claims he made $53,664 in the same amount of time. Chris Lewis says it was only $17,000 for him. Do I know these folks? No, but when I read how they say they did it, it made sense to me. Enough sense that I'm taking a similar chance with $5 of my own money. Not a big chance, I admit--but one with incredible potential, because $5 is all anyone ever invests in this system. Period. That's all Markus, Dave, or Dan invested, yet their $5 netted them tens of thousands of dollars each, in a safe, legal, completely legitimate way. You can make up to, or over, $50,000 in only 4-6 weeks. I was browsing through these newsgroups, just like you are now, and I came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars in only weeks with an initial investment of ONLY $5! And, like you, I thought " Yeah, right, must be a scam...". But, I was intrigued... like most of us are...and so I kept reading. Anyway, the article said that you were to send $1.00 to each of the 5 names and address and the article in at least 250 newsgroups... there are thousands!.. no catch...that was all you had to do. So after thinking it over and talking to a few friends first, I decided to try it...ofter all, if it really was a scam all I would loose would be my $5 and the cost of 5 stamps, right...? Well, guess what... within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail...No kidding! I have to tell you, I was suprised to say the least. I still figured it would end soon and didn't give it too much thought. But then money kept coming in...tripling in numbers and multiplying by 10 nad 20 times the amount that I got the first week! In my first week I made about $20 or $30 . But by the end of the second week, I had made a total of over $1,000!! In the third week, I had over $10,000, and it's still growing. This is my fourth week and I've made about $42,000 TOTAL...and the money is still coming in. Sincerely yours, John Gilmore INSTRUCTIONS Follow these instructions EXACTLY, and in 20 to 60 days you will have received well over $50,000.00 cash, all yours. This program has remained successful because of the HONESTY and integrety of the participants. Please continue its success by CAREFULLY ADHERING to the instructions. Welcome to the world of Public Key Cryptography! This little business is somewhat different than most mail order houses. Your product is not solid and tangible, but rather a service. You are in the business of escrowing Public Keys. Many government agencies are happy to pay big bucks for public keys. (The money made from the key escrow is secondary to the income which is made from people like yourself requesting that their keys be escrowed.) 1. First, you must obtain the program called PGP. These FTP sites have it: ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/crypt/pgp/ ftp://ftp.cert.dfn.de/pub/pgp/ ftp://idea.sec.dsi.unimi.it/pub/security/crypt/PGP ftp://ftp.nl.net/pub/crypto/pgp ftp://ftp.nic.surfnet.nl/surfnet/net-security/encryption/pgp ftp://menja.ifi.uio.no/pub/pgp/ ftp://ftphost.vuw.ac.nz ftp://leif.thep.lu.se ftp://nctuccca.edu.tw/PC/wuarchive/pgp/ ftp://sable.ox.ac.uk/pub/crypto/pgp ftp://ftp.csua.berkeley.edu/pub/cypherpunks/pgp/ If you have access to email, but not to ftp, send a message saying "help" to ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com or mailserv@nic.funet.fi 2. Now you must install PGP as described in its documentation and run the PGP key generation command "pgp -kg". PGP shows you a menu of key sizes. Pick the biggest one available. It also asks for a user ID, which means your name and e-mail address. Spaces and punctuation are allowed in the user ID. It would help if you put your E-mail address in <angle brackets> after your name, like so: John Gilmore <gnu@toad.com> PGP also asks for a "pass phrase" to protect your secret key in case it falls into the wrong hands. Nobody can use your secret key file without this pass phrase. The pass phrase is like a password, except that it can be a whole phrase or sentence with many words, spaces, punctuation, or anything else you want in it. Don't lose this pass phrase-- there's no way to recover it if you do lose it. This pass phrase will be needed later every time you use your secret key. The pass phrase is case-sensitive, and should not be too short or easy to guess. It is never displayed on the screen. Don't leave it written down anywhere where someone else can see it, and don't store it on your computer. 3. Now use the "pgp -kxa userid keyfile" command to copy your new public key from your public key ring and place it in a separate public key file suitable for distribution to your friends for escrow and inclusion in their public key rings. 4. Invest your $5 by writing your name and e-mail address on five separate pieces of paper along with the words, "Please escrow my PGP key. You are number __", and a copy of the keyfile. In this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone. Key escrow is a legitimate service that you are requesting and you are paying $5.00 for this service. Fold a $1 bill (or a loonie), money order, or bank note inside each piece of paper that you just wrote on and fold the piece of paper so the bill will not be seen in the envelope (otherwise, nosey people who like to steal mail with money in it will get yours!) and mail them by standard U. S. Mail to the five addresses listed below. #1 John Gilmore <gnu@toad.com>, P.O.Box 170608, San Francisco, CA 94117, 415-221-6524 #2 Timothy C. May <tcmay@got.net>, 427 Allan Lane, Corralitos, CA 408-728-0152. #3 Ray Arachelian <ray@earthweb.com>, 48-21 40th St, Apt 2B, Long Island City, NY 11104-4111, 718-786-4227 #4 Alan Bostick <abostick@netcom.com>, 680 66 St., Oakland, CA 94609, 510-658-7176 #5 Jason Durbin <jed@poisson.com>, 8 Avocet Drive, #211, Redwood Shores, CA 94065, 415-637-0435 5. Remove the name that appears as number 1 on the list. Move the other 4 names up one position (Number 2 becomes number 1, number 3 becomes number 2, and so on). Place your name, address, zip code, and e-mail address in the number 5 position. 6. With your name in the number 5 position, upload this ENTIRE amended file to at least 250 different Usenet newsgroups. I'm told that there are close to 30,000 of them, and all you need is 250 or so. Use the subject header to draw attention to this file and its great potential for all of us. See Netscape and Internet Explorer instructions below. Try posting to as many newsgroups as you can. Remember: the more groups you post to, the more people will see your article and send you cash! 7. Sit back and relax. You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing returns within 7 to 14 days! Remember, the Internet is new and huge. There is no way you can lose. HOW TO POST TO USENET: If you use Netscape Navigator 3.0, do exactly the following: A) Highlight all newsgroups you want to mail your letter to which as you know is done by holding down CTRL while left clicking. This way you can select multiple newsgroups in one go, choose perhaps a dozen each time. You will then see all the newsgroups you highlighted displayed in the Newsgroups Field. Then click on "TO NEWS" which is on the far left when you're in the newsgroup page. This will bring up a box to type a message. B) Leave the "Newsgroups" box like it is. CHANGE the "Subject:" box to something eye-catching like "NEED CASH $$$ READ HERE $$$" or "FAST CASH!!" or "$$$ PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY AND MAKE MONEY FAST $$$" C) Tab once and you should be ready to type. Now, paste (only once) this entire article, word for word, except to insert your name at #5 and to remove #1 off the list, plus any other small changes you think you need to make. Keep almost all of it the same however. It works!!! D) If you still have all of your text, send or post to this newsgroups now by just clicking the "SEND" button (just below the "FILE" dropdown menu and just above the CC: button) E) Here's where you're going to post to 250 or more, newsgroups. OK... click on any newsgroup then click on "TO NEWS".. again, in the top left corner of your screen. Leave the newsgroups box alone again, put a flashy subject title in the SUBJECT BOX, hit TAB once and you're in the body of the message. Now paste this article again. If you use Microsoft Internet Explorer, it's just as easy: Holding down the left mouse button, highlight this article. Then press the "CTRL" key and the "C" key at the same time to copy the article. Or, go to the EDIT dropdown menu and select COPY. Next, go to the newsgroups and press "POST AN ARTICLE". A window will open. Type in your flashy headline in the SUBJECT area and then click in the large window below. Press "CTRL" and then "V" and the article will be pasted in the window. (Or, go to EDIT and then PASTE.) If you want to edit the article, you can do so and then highlight and copy it again (so your edited article will be copied again and again to each newsgroup). Now, every time you post the article in a new newsgroup all you have to repeat is "CTRL" and "V" and press POST. F) That's it! Each time you do this, all you have to do is choose a different newsgroup so you can post this message to 250 or more, DIFFERENT, newsgroups. I know, I know,... you've still got 249 to go! Don't worry, each successive article will only take about 30 SECONDS once you get the hang of it. Remember, 250 is the MINIMUM ... The more you post, the more money you will make! Repeat the process over and over again by selecting further newsgroups in multiples of 10's but try to be selective with the groups by posting to high volume locations, and don't choose a subject that appears TOO flashy, this will only put people off. This is an honest and legitimate way of making a reasonable amount of money, and making it on a regular basis. But only if your message is sincere and clearly understood by others will you succeed. You are now in the key escrow business and will start receiving your $1 envelopes from various people all over the world within days. REMEMBER... The more newsgroups you post to, the more money you will make! You may want to rent a P.0. Box eventually because of all the mail. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can come up with a name, such as "Manager" or "Investor" ... Just make sure all the address that you have typed in for the 4 people plus yourself are correct, PLEASE. Now here is how and why this public key escrow system works: The Internet is growing daily at a phenomenal rate, quadrupling once a year. Perhaps you already know this. With millions of people surfing the Internet and an estimated 100,000 users scanning the newsgroups of which there are nearly 30,000. This exposure is the key factor and the reason why: You me and all those who take part cannot fail not to be disappointed. Just think about it, if you became interested in this article, why shouldn't thousands of others! At first, I posted to nearly 250 newsgroups, but due to the response soon increased this to 300, which brought in mail from Europe the Far east, Australia and America. So with my first dozen replies I made $12.00. But to simplify matters and keep the arithmetic easy, suppose I had posted to 200 newsgroups with my name at five and just had five replies which would have meant I earned $5.00. In theory you make $5.00 for every two hundred postings with your name at #5. Each person who sent you a $1.00 now also makes two hundred postings with your name at four equating to $50.00. Your fifty new agents also make two hundred postings each with your name at three, say ten thousand postings equating to $500.00. These five hundred agents again make two hundred postings each with your name at two equating to $10.000 or one hundred thousand postings. Finally, five thousand people once again make two hundred postings with your name at one and this would equate to the mathematical statistic of $50.000 before your name drops off the list. Which is pretty exciting and mind boggling considering these figures are based on only two hundred postings at a time being made down the line! Most people may think these figures are ridiculous, but they do add up. After all they do say the success of the Internet is due to it's sheer capacity of over 40 million. Technically, you only need an average return of 2.5% from the 200 postings that each person makes in order to achieve these high figures. So with the Internet comprising of 40 million user's the sky really is the limit!!! It's a never ending money making process because when your name finally drops off the list, or indeed before if you really need the cash (and who doesn't) you simply access another newsgroup posting and begin the process over again, placing your name at Five. Please remember to upload this article to as many newsgroups, local bulletin boards, message areas and file sections as possible. The financial rewards are guaranteed, but as stated, the level of success depends upon your efforts! And how much posting you do. This posting has been appearing for quite some time and has now literally got thousands of people actively involved. No doubt like me, you may have seen it before and become a little confused by the way it's been explained. However, I personally have never believed in a so called "Free lunch" and have always worked hard to support my family. But this idea is so simple involving only a modest $5.00 investment that I simply had to try it. At first, it took me quite a while to figure it out - my first impressions led me to believe that there must be someone behind it who alone is benefiting. But this isn't so, you only have to look at the various postings to realise this; the thousands of postings that are made all carry different names and addresses. So with so many people involved I became convinced that with this particular program I too could benefit. Although many of the postings have been modified the basic principal remains the same, in my opinion the only problem has been the way the initial concept has been repeatedly changed. With this in mind I have set out to explain what I consider to be a clearer version, in the hope there is no doubt in people's minds that it's fully understood. Because believe me, this system does work! In general, these postings lead you to believe you can make $50,000 within a month, which I think is a little over the top. But now ten days after my initial involvement, I'm beginning to get a reasonable and realistic return with a further understanding of just how big this concept is. I still cannot believe it - the money is coming in from all over the world. That money sure comes in useful, but what's more important is the fact I have proved this is a totally workable and legitimate system involving no risk and no major cash outlay. My other concern was the legal aspect, so I checked this through and was told that providing I mail one dollar to the person I am asking to escrow my PGP key, I am in fact paying for a service. As a personal note: The above figures are for demonstration purposes only with the whole concept and current success based upon the number of people participating. And the number of newsgroups and file sections you post this article to. Yes, it really depends on you the individual! How much money you want to make rests in your hands. Accessing newsgroups is very easy considering there are nearly 30,000 to choose from. Your success rate is determined by the amount of newsgroups accessed, you must follow through and post this or your own similar article to hundreds of newsgroups; maximise your postings and you maximise your cash intake. The end result depends on you. You must follow through and repost this article everywhere you can think of. The more postings you make, the more cash ends up in your mailbox. It's too easy and too cheap to pass up!!! So that's it. Pretty simple sounding stuff, huh? But believe me, it works. There are millions of people surfing the net every day, all day, all over the world. And 100,000 new people get on the net every day. You know that, you've seen the stories in the paper. So, my friend, read and follow the simple instructions and play fair. Thats the key, and thats all there is to it. Print this out right now so you can refer back to this article easily. Try to keep an eye on all the postings you made to make sure everyone is playing fairly. You know where your name should be. If you're really not sure or still think this can't be for real, then don't do it. But please print this article and pass it along to someone you know who really needs the bucks, and see what happens. 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 every day and are willing to give it a try? Estimate are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, EVERYDAY, with thousands of those joining the actual Internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this WILL WORK... I promise you. You just have to be honest. Make sure you print this article out RIGHT NOW (if it's not done yet). Also... try to keep a list of everyone that sends you money and always keep an eye on the newsgroups to make sure everyone is playing fairly. PLEASE NOTE: This system is based on everyone being honest, but it's all too tempting not to bother mailing out envelopes with dollar bills inside. The success for all participating is dependant upon this taking place and if carried out will mean a 500% increase on your article being redistributed! The system won't work to yours or indeed other people's advantage if you don't follow the procedure. You can however, if you wish to remain anonymous use a pseudonym - but please ensure your address is correct. AS A FINAL NOTE: Many business ideas for making money, no matter how well thought out and implemented simply don't get off the ground. And in most cases is due to advertising costs, but the exposure obtained through the Internet is quite honestly - pretty awesome, so please study this article carefully taking all the time you want, because the moment you begin participating you will be on track for some serious financial rewards. By the very nature of the way the system works you may not see the benefits the first week. BUT COMMENCING THE SECOND WEEK, YOUR INTAKE OF MAIL FROM AROUND THE WORLD WILL TRULY ASTONISH YOU! Please give this some serious thought, because this is one of the few money making schemes that really does work... GOOD LUCK!!! REMEMBER... HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY... YOU DON'T NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE MONEY!! Good luck to all and please play fairly and you will reap hugh rewards from this! By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages with your name on the list and not sending the money to the people already on the list, YOU WILL NOT GET MUCH RETURN! Someone I talked to (mean and cheap) just did that and he only made $150 after 7 to 8 weeks!! Then he sent the five $1 bills out... people added him to their lists ... and in 5 weeks, he had OVER $10,000! He than realize that there is no way to cheat with himself. THIS IS THE FAIREST AND MOST HONEST WAY I HAVE EVER SEEN TO SHARE THE WEALTH OF THE WORLD WITHOUT COATING ANYTHING BUT FIVE DOLLARS AND A LITTLE OF YOUR TIME! DO IT LIKE IT'S LAID OUT HERE... IT WILL WORK!! Within 60 days you will receive over $50,000.00 in CASH. Keep a copy of this file for yourself so that you can use it again and again whenever you need money. As soon as you mail out these letters you are automatically in the mail order business. People will be sending YOU $5.00 to escrow their PGP keys. This is a service. ** IT IS PERFECTLY LEGAL ** If you have any doubts as to the legality of this service, please refer to Title 18, Sections 1302 and 1341 of the Postal Lottery Laws. NOTE: Make sure that you retain EVERY name, address, and PGP key sent to you, either on computer or hard copy, but do not discard the names and notes that people send to you. This is PROOF that you are truly providing a service, and should the I.R.S. or some other government agency question you, you can provide them with this proof! Remember, as each post is downloaded and the instructions carefully followed, two memebers will be reimbursed for their participation as a List Developer with $5.00 each. Your name will move up the list geometrically so that when your name reaches the number 2 position you will be receiving thousands of dollars in cash. REMEMBER - THIS PROGRAM FAILS ONLY IF YOU ARE NOT HONEST - PLEASE!! PLEASE BE HONORABLE...IT DOES WORK! THANK YOU Testimonials from satisfied PGP users: Hey.... I'm one of the people who downloaded PGP a while ago, and I've made quite a profit...not 50,000 dollars, but TONS more than the 5 bucks I sent in. It might take more than 60 days to get 50,000, but I think I can wait. Zach Babayco ANOTHER ADDITION BY A PARTICIPATING MEMBER PLEASE just try this and do it right it's only 5 dollars and its legal, but DON'T try to cheat the system or you are cheating yourself! WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOSE, A MAXIMUM OF ```5$ !JUST TRY IT! SPREAD IT EVERYWHERE, THE MORE YOU SPREAD THE MORE YOU MAKE! ****************************************************************** *** ANOTHER ADDITION BY -=XxX=- ********************************** ****************************************************************** THIS WORKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM PROOF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO IT...!!!!!!!!!! ***************************************************************************** THIS IS REAL AND LEGAL. AND IF U DO NOT FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY AND DO NOT RECIEVE ANY OR LITTLE MONEY. DO NOT BLAME IT ON THE MAILING LIST NAMES. JUST INCLUDE YOUR NAME OR WHERE U GOT THIS TEXT FILE FROM EXAMPLE AMERICA ON LINE ETC... ALSO THE NAMES ON THIS LIST HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IF YOU GET YOUR MONEY OR NOT. IT IS GUARANTEED YES THAT YOU WILL GET YOUR MONEY BUT THIS PROTECTS ALL NAMES ON THIS TEXT FILE. AND JUST REMEMBER IT IS NOT OUR FAULT THAT YOU READ THE DIRECTIONS WRONG AND DID NOT RECIEVE ALL YOUR MONEY. IF U DID NOT SEND IN ONE DOLLAR TO EACH 5 NAMES THAT WILL MAKE IT SO YOU WILL NOT GET MONEY SO FOLLOW AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY!!!!!!!!!!!! AND PROMISED 50,000 DOLLARS WILL COME!!!!!!!! Timothy C. May This system works equally well if mailed out manually. Mind you it takes more effort to hand address the envelopes and the cost goes up proportionately to cover the postage and envelopes. You must also photo copy the instructions, cross out the name in number one position, write in your name in the number ten slot and change the rest of the numbers accordingly. (It might be neater to use white out or paste over the names.) In order to achieve the same results you must send out the $1.00 to the first five names and then send out another 100 letters with copies of the program enclosed. It has been suggested not to put a return address on the outside of the envelope in order to encourage the recipient to open it. The return will approximate that then received from the posts listed on the bulletin boards. OK HERE'S THE DEAL. AT PRESENT I AM A BUSINESS MAJOR AT VANDERBILT AND THIS PROGRAM MAKES A WORLD OF SENSE TO ME. I RECENTLY READ ABOUT A GUY THAT TOOK A PENNY FROM EVERY PERSON'S BANK ACCOUNT AT THE NEW YORK CITY BANK. AFTER 2 YEARS OF DOING THIS ILLEGALY HE BECAME A MILLIONAIRE. BUT GOT GREEDY AND GOT CAUGHT. SAME PRINCIPLE HERE. TAKE A DOLLAR FROM EVERYONE WHO GETS THIS AND ALTHOUGH THEIR GIVING PRACTICALLY NOTHING, THE RECEIVER IS GETTING LOTS. SORTA THE HUMANE THING TO DO. IF YOU COULD GIVE A GUY A BUCK AND HELP HIM HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY OFF A DEBT OR SAVE MONEY FOR RETIREMENT WHY NOT? THEN AFTER YOU SEND A DOLLAR JUST MANIPULATE THIS FILE LIKE IT STATES ABOVE AND PEOPLE WILL BE HELPING YOU OUT TOO. MY DAD TAUGHT BE TO BE CAREFUL OF THINGS THAT SOUND TO GOOD TO BE TRUE CAUSE THEY USUALLY ARE BUT WHAT CAN YOU LOSE BY GIVING $5!!! YOU HAVE ALL TO WIN AND NOTHING TO LOSE. L8R Hi all, I will not say my name, as I wish to remain anonymous, but I have something to say. IT WORKS. I am THE most sceptical person on the face of the earth. I saw this, and say _-=BS=-_..no way...impossible..then my friend told me he did it.. he said he made about 50 bucks..I said no way..he proved it to me.. I decided, what the hell...I sent out my 5 bucks, and Sent this thing to about a 400 people, not to BBS's, just E-mail. 3 weeks went by, and I FINALLY got ONE dollar in the mail. It has been about 3 months since that day I got my first dollar, and now every day when I go to get my mail, there are about 3 dollar bills in my box waiting for me. I have made almost 300 dollars. I dunno about that guy and his 50 thous., but if someone offered you 300 dollars for FREE, would you take it? Do this guys...it WORKS!!! Jason Durbin Hey guys, I am #5. I just got this a few days ago as an e-mail. Over my life I have received over 50 e-mails just like this, which I avoided. Finally I am gonna give it a shot. If it works, great, but if it doesn't than oh well. Its only 5 bucks guys. That's it. And forwarding this to everyone you know, and U/Load it to Newsgroups and BBS's. So far, I have sent this to over 2000 people on the net, including BBS's, Newgroups, IRC, and America Online. The more copies you send out, the more of a chance you have of getting money in the mail. You guys may not $50,000 heh ehh. I doubt anyone can. They all just say that to get your attention. But possibly you could get at least $500. But hey, if someone offerd you $500 would you take it? Of cource would. All it is, is just 5 dollars. That's it. Send a dollar each to each address listed below. Include your name, address, e-mail address, and where you got "FASTCASH.TXT" from. Just give it a shot guys. Its perfectly legal, I know that cause a few of my friends did and they together all made about $750. heh heh, the IRS is not gonna come knocking on your door or the FBI or any other government agency. Those are all rumors from people who were unsuccessful at doing this. HONESTY COUNTS. Once you've sent the dollar to someone you are added to their mailing list. Just give it a shot guys. Its only $5. What do else are you gonna do. Just be patient for your money to arrive. Its not all gonna come the day you send the 5 bucks. It may take 2 or 3 weeks for the money to role in. Then for the next 2 months, everyday you will be receiving letters with dollar bills in your mailbox. Alan Bostick 10-20-96 Hi I have found that the best way to do this is to use the news part of Netscape 3.0. All you have to do is click on "To News" in the upper lefthand corner. Copy this article to your clipboard, if you are using windows, then go into your clipboard while you still have the News box open. Edit the artile as necessary and then select edit "copy". Next go back to your News box and select edit "paste" and you will find that the article is posted in the box with all the necessary changes. Put a flashy subject in the subject box to attract attention, then you can send it to a newsgroup and your on your way to make big bucks. ********************************************************** *** REMEMBER....HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.YOU DON'T *** *** NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE THE MONEY! *** *** GOOD LUCK TO ALL,AND PLEASE PLAY FAIR AND YOU WILL *** *** WIN AND MAKE SOME REAL INSTANT FREE CASH! *** **********************************************************
