Does this headline look familiar? Of course it does. You most likely have 
just seen this story recently featured on a major nightly news program 
(USA).
His mother was cleaning and putting laundry away when she came across a 
large brown paper bag that was suspiciously buried beneath some clothes and 
a skateboard in the back of her son's closet. Nothing could have prepared 
her for the shock she got when she opened the bag and found it was full of 
cash. Five dollar bills, twenties, fifties and hundreds- all neatly 
rubber-banded in labeled piles. "My first thought was that he had robbed a 
bank", says the 41-year-old woman, "There was over $71,000 dollars in that 
bag- that's more than my husband earns in a year." The woman immediately 
called her husband at the car-dealership where he worked to tell him what 
she'd discovered. He came home right away and they drove together to the 
boy's school and picked him up. Little did they suspect that where the money 
came from was more shocking than actually finding it in the closet. As it 
turns out, the boy had been sending out via E-mail on the internet a type of 
'chain-letter' to E-mail addresses that he obtained off of the internet. 
Everyday after school for the past 2 months, he had been doing this right on 
his computer in his bedroom. "I just got the E-mail one day and I figured 
what the heck, I put my name on it like the instructions said and I started 
sending it out", says the clever 15-year-old. The E-mail letter listed 3 
addresses and contained instructions to send three $5 dollar bills to the 
people on the list, then delete the top address and move the other 2 
addresses up, and finally to add your name to the bottom of the list. The 
letter goes on to state that you would receive several thousand dollars in 
5$ dollar bills within 2 weeks if you sent out the letter with your name at 
the bottom of the 3-address list "I get junk E-mail all the time, and I 
really didn't think it was gonna work", the boy continues. Within the first 
few days of sending out the E-mail, the Post Office Box that his parents had 
gotten for his video-game magazine subscriptions began to fill up with not 
magazines, but envelopes containing $5 dollar bills. "about a week later I 
rode (my bike)down to the post office and my box had 1 magazine and about 
300 envelopes stuffed in it. There was a yellow slip that said I had to go 
up to the (post office) counter- I thought I was in trouble or something 
(laughs)". He goes on, "I went up to the counter and they had a whole box of 
more mail for me. I had to ride back home and empty out my backpack 'cause I 
couldn't carry it all". Over the next few weeks, the boy continued sending 
out the E-mail. "The money just kept coming in and I just kept sorting it 
and stashing it in the closet, I barely had time for my homework". He had 
also been riding his bike to several of the area's banks and exchanging the 
$5 bills for twenties, fifties and hundreds. "I didn't want the banks to get 
suspicious so I kept riding to different banks with like five thousand at a 
time in my backpack. I would usually tell the lady at the bank counter that 
my dad had sent me in (to exchange the money) and he was outside waiting for 
me. One time the lady gave me a really strange look and told me that she 
wouldn't be able to do it for me and my dad would have to come in and do it, 
but I just rode to the next bank down the street (laughs)". Surprisingly, 
the boy didn't have any reason to be afraid. The reporting news team 
examined and investigated the so-called 'chain-letter' the boy was sending 
out and found that it wasn't a chain-letter at all. In fact, it was 
completely legal according to US Postal and Lottery Laws, Title 18, Section 
1302 and 1341, or Title 18, Section 3005 in the US code, also in the code of 
federal regulations, Volume 16, Sections 255 and 436, which states a product 
or service must be exchanged for money received.
Every five dollar bill that he received contained a little note that read, 
"Please add me to your mail list". This simple note made the letter legal 
because he was exchanging a service (adding the purchasers name to his mail 
list) for a five dollar fee. Here is the letter that the 15-year-old was 
sending out by E-mail, you can do the exact same thing he was doing, simply 
by following the instructions in the letter.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are instructions on how to make $10,000 US cash in the next 2 weeks:
There are 3 addresses listed below. Send the three people on the list a $5 
bill wrapped in 2 pieces of paper (to securely hide it), along with a note 
that says: "Please add me to your mail list". Then delete the top name, move 
the other 2 up and put your name at the bottom.
You MUST SEND each of these people a $5 bill or you will never get any money 
yourself.
Think of it as karma in action..or the golden rule. Do for others what you 
want done to you.
Give each of them their fair share of the profits and you will be remembered 
when it is your turn to collect! You will thank yourself for being an honest 
person in a few weeks..
Now start sending this ENTIRE E-mail back out to everyone you know. To make 
it easy for you to copy this for emailing, go to this link online at:
                         http://www.angelfire.com/ut/gregp/71kincloset.html
Now, simply cut and paste this text onto a notepad or word document, then go 
download a mass emailer such as SpeedyMailer 1.22. Go to a search engine, 
and type in "SpeedyMailer", then once you've got the free demo of it in your 
computer, gather a list of target emails from any forwarded email sent to 
you and also by getting them from people in chatrooms. Now get busy sending 
those emails! When 20 people receive it, those 20 people will send you $5 
and move your name up to the middle position and they will each send out 20 
emails. That totals 400 people that will receive this letter with your name 
in the middle. Then, those 400 people will send you $5 and move your name to 
the top!
                        HERE IS WHERE IT GETS VERY INTERESTING!
When 400 people email it to 20 others, 8,000 will receive the email with 
your name at the top! 8,000 people each sending you a $5 bill = $40,000 
cash. That's if everyone responds to this E-mail, but not everyone will, so 
you can expect more realistically to receive about $10,000 cash $5 bills in 
your mailbox. But some of you may receive A WHOLE LOT MORE! This will work 
for anyone, anywhere in the world in any country, but send only a US CASH $5 
bill. The more E-mails you send out, the more cash you will receive. If each 
person sends out 100 E-mails, there will be 1,000,000 people that receive 
this letter when your name reaches the top. If only 1% of those people 
respond, you will get $50,000 cash.
Here is the list:
--------------------------------------------------------
1)       S .   K o c h
         1441 Forest Ln
         Garland, Tx 75042

2)       C .   N e r n
         812 Wedgewood Dr
         Lansdale, Pa 19446

3)       G . P l a z a
         P . O. Box  720892
         San Jose, Ca 95172
--------------------------------------------------------
THERES'S NOTHING MORE TO DO! When your email reaches others. you will start 
receiving $5 bills from people just like yourself, who are willing to invest 
three $5 bills to receive $10,000 or more in cash! So get started right 
away! Put your name at the bottom, send the three people $5 each, then send 
or email this to everyone you know!
If you don't try it-you will never know!

Here are some methods that you can use to advertise this opportunity:
1) Email     (send it out as targeted bulk email but dont spam people)
2) Newsgroups    (find places to post that haven't been used yet)
3) Postal Mail     (order a fresh list of addresses)
4) Dropping it in lockers at high schools   (do this at night when you wont 
be seen)
5) Taping it to house entrances   (be sure to tape it to the doorknob)

Steven's testimony on [February 06, 2001]:
I was curious so I decided I would try it just to see what would happen. I 
sent the money and I started to regret doing it afterwards. About two weeks 
went by and nothing happen. Then on the third week i received an envelope 
with a 5 dollar bill in it. I thought its just 5 dollars i still lost 10 but 
on the next day i found 3 envelopes each with 5 dollar bills now i was 
happy. i made 5 a dollar profit. two days past and what do u know there were 
5 envelopes with my name on it with 5 dollar bills each. Im still receiving 
envelopes till this day. my advice to everyone is give it a shoot, im sure 
glad i did.
