Subject: Make Up to a Half Million Dollars from HOME in LESS than 12 months!

Dear Friend & Future Millionaire:

AS SEEN ON NATIONAL TV :
''Making over half million dollars every 4 to 5 months from your home for
an investment of only $25 U.S. Dollars expense one time''

THANK'S TO THE COMPUTER AGE AND THE INTERNET !
==================================================
BE A MILLIONAIRE LIKE OTHERS WITHIN A YEAR!!!
Before you say ''Bull'', please read the following. This is the letter you
have been hearing about on the news lately. Due to the popularity of this
letter on the Internet, a national weekly news program recently devoted an
entire show to the investigation of this program described below, to see if
it really can make people money. The show also investigated whether or not
the program was legal.

Their findings proved once and for all that there are ''absolutely NO Laws
prohibiting the participation in the program and if people can -follow the
simple instructions, they are bound to make some mega bucks with only $25
out of pocket cost''. DUE TO THE RECENT INCREASE OF POPULARITY & RESPECT
THIS PROGRAM HAS ATTAINED, IT IS CURRENTLY WORKING BETTER THAN EVER.

This is what one had to say: '' Thanks to this profitable opportunity. I
was approached many times before but each time I passed on it. I am so glad
I
finally joined just to see what one could expect in return for the minimal
effort and money required. To my astonishment, I received total $
610,470.00 in 21 weeks, with money still coming in''.
Pam Hedland, Fort Lee, New Jersey.

=====================================================================
Here is another testimonial: ''' this program has been around for a long
time but I never believed in it. But one day when I received this again in
the mail I decided to gamble my $25 on it. I followed the simple
instructions and walaa ..... 3 weeks later the money started to come in.
First month I only made $240.00 but the next 2 months after that I made a
total of $290,000.00. So far, in the past 8 months by re-entering the
program, I have made over $710,000.00 and I am playing it again. The key to
success in this program is to follow the simple steps and NOT change
anything.'' More testimonials later but first,

If you would like to make at least $500,000 every 4 to 5 months easily and
comfortably, please read the following...THEN READ IT AGAIN and AGAIN !!!
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
$$

FOLLOW THE SIMPLE INSTRUCTION BELOW AND YOUR FINANCIAL DREAMS WILL COME
TRUE, GUARANTEED! INSTRUCTIONS:

================ Order all 5 reports shown on the list below
=================

For each report, send $5 CASH, THE NAME & NUMBER OF THE REPORT YOU ARE
ORDERING and YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS to the person whose name appears ON THAT
LIST next to the report. MAKE SURE YOUR RETURN ADDRESS IS ON YOUR ENVELOPE
TOP LEFT CORNER in case of any mail problems.

=== When you place your order, make sure you order each of the 5 reports.
You will need all 5 reports so that you can save them on your computer and
resell them. YOUR TOTAL COST $5 X 5=$25.00.

=== Within a few days you will receive, vie e-mail, each of the 5 reports
from these 5 different individuals. Save them on your computer so they will

be accessible for you to send to the 1,000's of people who will order them
from you. Also make a floppy of these reports and keep it on your desk in
case something happen to your computer.

=== IMPORTANT __ DO NOT alter the names of the people who are listed next
to each report, or their sequence on the list, in any way other than what is
instructed below in step '' 1 through 6 '' or you will lose out on majority

of your profits. Once you understand the way this works, you will also see
how it does not work if you change it. Remember, this method has been
tested, and if you alter, it will NOT work !!! People have tried to put
their friends/relatives names on all five thinking they could get all the
money. But it does not work this way. Believe us, we all have tried to be
greedy and then nothing happened. So Do Not try to change anything other
than what is instructed. Because if you do, it will not work for you.
Remember, honesty reaps the reward!!!

1.... After you have ordered all 5 reports, take this advertisement and
REMOVE the name & address of the person in REPORT # 5. This person has made

it through the cycle and is no doubt counting their fortune.

2.... Move the name & address in REPORT # 4 down TO REPORT # 5.

3.... Move the name & address in REPORT # 3 down TO REPORT # 4.

4.... Move the name & address in REPORT # 2 down TO REPORT # 3.

5.... Move the name & address in REPORT # 1 down TO REPORT # 2

6.... Insert YOUR name & address in the REPORT # 1 Position.
PLEASE MAKE SURE you copy every name & address ACCURATELY!
=====================================================================

**** Take this entire letter, with the modified list of names, and save it
on your computer. DO NOT MAKE ANY OTHER CHANGES.

Save this on a disk as well just in case if you lose any data. To assist
you with marketing your business on the internet, the 5 reports you purchase
will provide you with invaluable marketing information which includes how
to send bulk e-mails legally, where to find thousands of free classified ads
and much more. There are 2 Primary methods to get this venture going:

METHOD # 1: BY SENDING BULK E-MAIL LEGALLY
=====================================================================
Let's say that you decide to start small, just to see how it goes, and we
will assume You and those involved send out only 5,000 e-mails each. Let's
also assume that the mailing receive only a 0.2% response (the response
could be much better but lets just say it is only 0.2%. Also many people
will send out hundreds of thousands e-mails instead of only 5,000 each).
Continuing with this example, you send out only 5,000 e-mails.

With a 0.2% response, that is only 10 orders for report # 1. Those 10
people responded by sending out 5,000 e-mail each for a total of 50,000. Out
of those 50,000 e-mails only 0.2% responded with orders. That's=100 people
responded and ordered Report # 2.

Those 100 people mail out 5,000 e-mails each for a total of 500,000
e-mails. The 0.2% response to that is 1000 orders for Report # 3.

Those 1000 people send out 5,000 e-mails each for a total of 5 million
e-mails sent out. The 0.2% response to that is 10,000 orders for Report # 4.

Those 10,000 people send out 5,000 e-mails each for a total of 50,000,000
(50 million) e-mails. The 0.2% response to that is 100,000 orders for
Report # 5 THAT'S 100,000 ORDERS TIMES $5 EACH=$500,000.00 (half million).

Your total income in this example is: 1..... $50 + 2..... $500 + 3.....
$5,000 + 4..... $50,000 + 5..... $500,000 ........ Grand Total=$555,550.00

NUMBERS DO NOT LIE. GET A PENCIL & PAPER AND FIGURE OUT THE WORST POSSIBLE
RESPONSES AND NO MATTER HOW YOU CALCULATE IT, YOU WILL STILL MAKE A LOT OF
MONEY !

=====================================================================
REMEMBER FRIEND, THIS IS ASSUMING ONLY 10 PEOPLE ORDERING OUT OF 5,000 YOU
MAILED TO. Dare to think for a moment what would happen if everyone or half
or even one 4th of those people mailed 100,000 e-mails each or more? There
are over 150 million people on the Internet worldwide and counting. Believe
me, many people will do just that, and more!

METHOD # 2 : BY PLACING FREE ADS ON THE INTERNET
=====================================================================
Advertising on the net is very very inexpensive and there are hundreds of
FREE places to advertise. Placing a lot of free ads on the Internet will
easily get a larger response. We strongly suggest you start with Method # 1

and add METHOD # 2 as you go along. For every $5 you receive, all you must
do is e-mail them the Report they ordered. That's it. Always provide same
day service on all orders.

This will guarantee that the e-mail they send out, with your name and
address on it, will be prompt because they can not advertise until they
receive the report.

====================== AVAILABLE REPORTS====================

ORDER EACH REPORT BY ITS NUMBER & NAME ONLY. Notes: Always send $5 cash
(U.S. CURRENCY) for each Report. Checks NOT accepted. Make sure the cash is

concealed by wrapping it in at least 2 sheets of paper. On one of those
sheets of paper, Write the NUMBER & the NAME of the Report you are
ordering, YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS and your name and postal address.

$$$$$$$$$ YOUR SUCCESS GUIDELINES $$$$$$$$$$$

Follow these guidelines to guarantee your success:

=== If you do not receive at least 10 orders for Report #1 within 2 weeks,
continue sending e-mails until you do.

=== After you have received 10 orders, 2 to 3 weeks after that you should
receive 100 orders or more for REPORT # 2. If you did not, continue
advertising or sending e-mails until you do.

=== Once you have received 100 or more orders for Report # 2, YOU CAN
RELAX, because the system is already working for you, and the cash will
continue
to roll in ! THIS IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER: Every time your name is moved
down
on the list, you are placed in front of a different report.

You can KEEP TRACK of your PROGRESS by watching which report people are
ordering from you. IF YOU WANT TO GENERATE MORE INCOME SEND ANOTHER BATCH
OF E-MAILS AND START THE WHOLE PROCESS AGAIN. There is NO LIMIT to the
income
you can generate from this business !!!

=====================================================================

FOLLOWING IS A NOTE FROM THE ORIGINATOR OF THIS PROGRAM:
You have just received information that can give you financial freedom for
the rest of your life, with NO RISK and JUST A LITTLE BIT OF EFFORT. You
can make more money in the next few weeks and months than you have ever
imagined. Follow the program EXACTLY AS INSTRUCTED. Do Not change it in any

way. It works exceedingly well as it is now. Remember to e-mail a copy of
this exciting report after you have put your name and address in Report #1
and moved others to #2 ...........# 5 as instructed above. One of the
people you send this to may send out 100,000 or more e-mails and your name
will be

on every one of them. Remember though, the more you send out the more
potential customers you will reach. So my friend, I have given you the
ideas, information, materials and opportunity to become financially
independent. IT IS UP TO YOU NOW!

==================== MORE TESTIMONIALS======================

'' My name is Mitchell. My wife, Jody and I live in Chicago. I am an
accountant with a major U.S. Corporation and I make pretty good money. When
I received this program I grumbled to Jody about receiving ''junk mail''. I
made fun of the whole thing, spouting my knowledge of the population and
percentages involved. I ''knew'' it wouldn't work. Jody totally ignored my
supposed intelligence and few days later she jumped in with both feet. I
made merciless fun of her, and was ready to lay the old ''I told you so''
on her when the thing didn't work. Well, the laugh was on me! Within 3 weeks
she had received 50 responses. Within the next 45 days she had received
total $ 147,200.00 ........... all cash! I was shocked. I have joined Jody
in her ''hobby''.
Mitchell Wolf M.D., Chicago, Illinois
=====================================================================
'' Not being the gambling type, it took me several weeks to make up my mind
to participate in this plan. But conservative that I am, I decided that the
initial investment was so little that there was just no way that I wouldn't
get enough orders to at least get my money back''. '' I was surprised when
I found my medium size post office box crammed with orders. I made
$319,210.00 in the first 12 weeks. The nice thing about this deal is that it
does not matter where people live. There simply isn't a better investment
with
a faster return and so big''.
Dan Sondstrom, Alberta, Canada
=====================================================================
'' I had received this program before. I deleted it, but later I wondered
if I should have given it a try. Of course, I had no idea who to contact to
get another copy, so I had to wait until I was e-mailed again by someone
else.........11 months passed then it luckily came again...... I did not
delete this one! I made more than $490,000 on my first try and all the
money came within 22 weeks''.
Susan De Suza, New York, N.Y.
=====================================================================
'' It really is a great opportunity to make relatively easy money with
little cost to you. I followed the simple instructions carefully and within
10 days the money started to come in. My first month I made $ 20,560.00 and
by the end of third month my total cash count was $ 362,840.00. Life is
beautiful, Thanx to internet''.

WOW, I can't believe I'm going to get paid to do linux hacking!

Matti, Davem, Ralf, <other list owners>,

Anybody interested in the ~100 anti-spam regexps I'm using
on NL.linux.org at the moment ?

I think I could even setup something where we keep the
anti-spam regexps in a publicly accessible CVS tree (with
of course a nice script to automatically generate the
majordomo.cf).

[and yes ... I'm pretty sure the majordomo setup on NL.linux.org
will filter out this message if it's sent there]

there is a much simpler method:
drop any mail, which does not contain the address of the mailing list
in To: or Cc:.
Bcc: mails (who wants to post with a bcc legitimately?) and bulk
mailers (which don't put the receipients into the headers) are
rejected. this does not only protect from spam, but also from the
jerks, that subscribe one mailing list to another.
or did i miss some important point?

best regards

Unfortunately, spam to lists often *does* contain the list
address in the To: or Cc: header these days ...

... but it does contain all the usual spam disclaimers.
