Arrow Turn $6 into a profit.....Or a bunch of BS??

What’s up guys, saw this on a Costa Rican Forum. Thought I’d post it. What's everyone option?

I know there alot of folks that have Paypal Accounts...


You can make from $20,000 to $50,000 in as little as 4 -6 weeks just by
your cooperation; with only an initial investment of $6,by using a
simple secure internet account called Paypal, that takes only a few minutes
to join and get started. I've actually taken the 10 minutes it requires to join this wacky bunch of optimists and I'm hoping that there are others out there that will spare the change to try this.

READ ON: I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. "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 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, and or
email addresses.
(There are thousands) No catch, that was it. 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 PayPal 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! (Print it out or download it.)
Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in! It's that
easy. It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00.
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.
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 4 easy steps to success:
STEP 1:
Take a few minutes to join Paypal:
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 2
Once you have a Paypal account running, use Paypal to post $1 to EACH
of the 6 Email Addresses below because you pay people with an email
address in Paypal.
To do this you may need to use a credit card, which is very easy, and
secure so nobody but Paypal may see it. If you don't have a credit card
show this great lucrative offer to someone that has one and get them to
help you pay the $6.
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. But I looked around and did some homework and
found it was perfectly legal.
Here are the 6 individual Email addresses that you have to send $1 to
through Paypal for this to work properly and for you to receive money.
(If you don't send the money and decide to post the message with your
name in it anyway, Paypal will instantly pick this up and terminate your
account, immediately, besides the other penalties!!
If you did this you could get into serious trouble because it is fraud.
(So follow the instructions and post the $6 and you will make lots of
money with no hassles.)
Now send $1 to each of these following email - addresses through your
paypal account: (Just in case you still haven't one yet, use this link
to open one in your name: https://www.paypal.com
and pay $1 to each the following 6 email- addresses
1.) [email protected]
2.) [email protected]

3.) [email protected]

4.) [email protected]

5.) [email protected]

6.) [email protected]

Add a subject "Please add me to your mailing list"
and a note with "Thanks, I have joined"
STEP 3
Now take the #1 Email Address off the list that you see above, move the
other Email Addresses up (6 becomes 5, 4 becomes 3 etc¡K) and add Your
Email Address as number 6 on the list.
STEP 4
Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to
the original as possible.
Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups (there are
thousands of groups).
And email your message to as many people you can, But remember, the
more you post and email the more money you make! This is perfectly legal!
If you have any doubts, refer to Sec. 1302 & 1241 of the Postal Lottery
laws.
Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money,
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.
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!!!
What an opportunity for only a total of $6.00 !! $1 for each of the
first SIX people listed above
To begin with, please send you're joining fee now and then add your own
Email Address to the list and you're in business!
HOW TO POST TO NEWS GROUPS?
Use Netscape or Internet Explorer and try searching for various
newsgroups(on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.)
Log on any search engine like yahoo.com,google.com,altavista.com,
excite.com, etc., then search with the subject ¡¥¡¥millionaire message board''
or¡¥¡¥money making message board'' or ¡¥¡¥employment message board''or
¡¥¡¥money making discussions'' or ''money making forum'' or ¡¥¡¥business
message board'' etc.
You will find thousands & thousands of message boards. Click on them
one by one and you will find the option 'post a new message'. Then Post
this article as a 'new message' by highlighting the text of this letter
and selecting copy then 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! It only takes about 60 seconds to
complete postings on message boards after you catch on.
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 You will begin
receiving money in your account from around the world within days!
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.
A - M - A - Z - I - N - G - !!
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 Email Addresses
using Paypal on the list, putting your name at number 6 again. And start
posting again.
The thing to remember is 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 to see if it really
works?? I think so!
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 & newsgroups
everyday and are willing to give it a try ??
Anyway, it is only $6.00 for a chance at thousands. Estimates are at
20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with thousands of those joining
the actual Internet.

Sounds like a pyramid scheme to me. Those at the top of the pyramid get some money, those at the bottom do not.

There is no reason to pay the people on the list. However, send it out to your freinds/message boards etc with YOUR name and your 4 buddies and someone will be dumb enough to pay you. I know this for a fact, I did that in college (only not paypal, it was on paper) and made a semester's tuition and never paid a single penny to anyone! There are fools all over, no doubt.

Nothing legal about it

I always get a chuckle when I see these things and read the line "... it's not illegal."

There's absolutely nothing legal about it, and I speak from experience and knowledge of the legalities I gained as former head of marketing for one of the largest lottery corporations in world. It's a simple pyramid scheme where money is brought in as a result of signing people up (with no transaction or provision of legitimate goods or services) and is used to pay people who previously signed up. Eventually it crumbles.

In this case, there is no "legitimate" service being provided, merely a bogus attempt at a smokescreen. Federal regulators and enforcement agencies aren't that dumb when it comes to prosecuting these. Of course an email scam like this is difficult, if not impossible, to prosecute, but there are many multi-level marketing companies that cross this line (many are completely legitimate) and get shut down on an ongoing basis.

That's my .02
