Get your  piece of this action!!!   0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ; Hello - My name is Johnathon Rourke, I'm from Rhode Island.   B The enclosed information is something I almost let slip through myB fingers. Fortunately, sometime later I re-read everything and gaveI some thought and study to it. Two years ago, the corporation I worked for @ the past twelve years down-sized and my position was eliminated.E After unproductive job interviews, I decided to open my own business. B Over the past year, I incurred many unforeseen financial problems.E I owed my family, friends and creditors over $35,000. The economy was J taking a toll on my business and I just couldn't seem to make ends meet. ID had to refinance and borrow against my home to support my family and struggling business.  > AT THAT MOMENT something significant happened in my life. I amI writing to share the experience in hopes that this could change your life  FOREVER.   FINANCIALLY$$$!!!   A In mid December, I received this program in my e-mail. Six months < prior to receiving this program I had been sending away for B information on various business opportunities. All of the programsH I received, in my opinion, were not cost effective. They were either tooI difficult for me to comprehend or the initial investment was too much for I me to risk to see if they would work. But as I was saying, in December of G 1997 I received this program. I didn't send for it, or ask for it, they $ just got my name off a mailing list.  C THANK GOODNESS FOR THAT!!! After reading it several times, to make  C sure I was reading it correctly.  I couldn't believe my eyes! Here  F was a MONEY MAKING MACHINE I could start immediately without any debt.  J Like most of you I was still a little skeptical and a little worried aboutJ the legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Post OfficeC (1-800-725-2161 24-hrs) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal!   @ After determining the program was LEGAL I decided "WHY NOT!?!??"  E Initially I sent out 10,000 e-mails. It cost me about $15 for my time K on-line. The great thing about e-mail is that I don't need any for printing I to send out the program, and because I also send the product (reports) by # e-mail, my only expense is my time.   J In less than one week, I was starting to receive orders for REPORT #1.  ByC January 13, I had received 26 orders for REPORT #1. Your goal is to A "RECEIVE at least 20 ORDERS FOR REPORT #1 WITHIN 2 WEEKS. IF YOU  + DON'T, SEND OUT MORE PROGRAMS UNTIL YOU DO.   I My first step in making $50,000 in 90 days was done. By January 30, I had I received 196 orders for REPORT #2. Your goal is to "RECEIVE AT LEAST 100+ I ORDERS FOR REPORT #2 WITHIN 2 WEEKS. IF NOT, SEND OUT MORE PROGRAMS UNTIL H YOU DO. ONCE YOU HAVE 100 ORDERS, THE REST IS EASY, RELAX, YOU WILL MAKE YOUR $50,000 GOAL."   < Well, I had 196 orders for REPORT #2. 96 more than I needed.A So I sat back and relaxed. By March 1, of my e-mailing of 10,000, B received $58,000 with more coming in every day. I paid off ALL my ' debts and bought a much needed new car!   A Please take your time to read this plan, IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE 8 FOREVER$!!! Remember, it won't work if you don't try it.  7 This program does work, BUT you must follow it EXACTLY!   K Especially the rules of not trying to place your name in a different place. F It won't work and you'll lose out on a lot of money! In order for thisI program to work, you must meet your goal of 20+ orders for REPORT #1, and 6 100+ orders for REPORT #2 and you will make $50,000 or more in 90 days.  D I AM LIVING PROOF THAT IT WORKS!!! If you choose not to participate C in this program, I am sorry. It really is a great opportunity with  A little  cost or risk to you. If you choose to participate, follow B the program and you will be on your way to financial security. If B you are a fellow business owner and are in financial trouble like E I was, or you want to start your own business, consider this a sign.  	 I DID! $$   
 Sincerely,   Johnathon Rourke0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  4 A PERSONAL NOTE FROM THE ORIGINATOR OF THIS PROGRAM:  K By the time you have read the enclosed program and reports, you should have I concluded that such a program, and one that is legal, could not have been E created by an amateur. Let me tell you a little about myself. I had a H profitable business for 10 years. Then in 1979 my business began fallingH off. I was doing the same things that were previously successful for me,J but it wasn't working. Finally, I figured it out. It wasn't me, it was theI economy. Inflation and recession had replaced the stable economy that had  been with us since 1945.  B I don't have to tell you what happened to the unemployment rate...D because many of you know from first hand experience. There were moreK failures and bankruptcies than ever before. The middle class was vanishing. J Those who knew what they were doing invested wisely andmoved up. Those whoG did not, including those who never had anything to save or invest, were I moving down into the ranks of the poor. As the saying goes, "THE RICH GET H RICHER AND THE POOR GET POORER." The traditional methods of making moneyK will never allow you to"move up" or "get rich", inflation will see to that.   > You have just received information that can give you financialK freedom for the rest of your life, with "NO RISK" and "JUST A LITTLE BIT OF J EFFORT." You can make more money in the next few months than you have everE imagined. I should also point out that I will not see a penny of this G money, nor anyone else who has provided a testimonial for this program.   H I have retired from the program after sending thousands and thousands ofK programs. Follow the program EXACTLY AS INSTRUCTED. Do not change it in any I way. It works exceedingly well as it is now. Remember to e-mail a copy of 3 this exciting report to everyone you can think of.    K One of the people you send this to may send out 50,000...and your name will  be on everyone of them!   A REMEMBER though, ----- the MORE YOU SEND OUT, the more potential  D 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 DO IT!!   0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  A BEFORE YOU delete this program from your in box, as I almost did, I take a little time to read it and REALLY THINK ABOUT IT. Get a pencil and G figure out what could happen when YOU participate. Figure out the worst K possible response and no matter how you calculate it, you will still make a H lot of money! You will definitely get back what you invested. Any doubts4 you have will vanish when your first orders come in.   $$$ IT WORKS!!! $$$    Jody Jacobs Richmond, VA  0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  : HERE'S HOW THIS AMAZING PROGRAM WILL MAKE YOU THOUSANDS OF DOLLAR$$$$!!!!  A This method of raising capital REALLY WORKS 100% EVERY TIME. I am C sure that you could use up to $50,000 or more in the next 90 days.  ? before you say "BULL... ", please read this program carefully.  ? This is not a chain letter, but a perfectly legal money making  	 business.   < As with all multi-level businesses, we build our business byH recruiting new partners and selling our products. Every state in the USAH allows you to recruit new multi-level business partners, and we sell and, deliver a product for EVERY dollar received.  A YOUR ORDERS COME BY MAIL AND ARE FILLED BY E-MAIL, so you are not D involved in personal selling.

 PLAN SUMMARY:   C (1) You order the 4 reports listed below ($5 each) They come to you 	 by email.   D (2) Save a copy of this entire letter and put your name after Report! #1 and move the other names down.   @ (3) Via the internet, access Yahoo.com or any of the other majorB search engines to locate hundreds of bulk email service companies D (search for "bulk email") and have them send 25,000 - 50,000 emails  for you about $49+)p  B (4) Orders will come to you by postal mail - simply email them theJ Report they ordered. Let me ask you - isn't this about as easy as it gets?  C *******************************************************************o  B By the way there are over 50 MILLION email addresses with millionsI more joining the internet each year so don't worry about "running out" or/K "saturation". People are used to seeing and hearing the same advertisements-/ every day on radio/TV. How many times have you mB received the same pizza flyers on your door? Then one day you are A hungry for pizza and you order one. Same thing with this letter. mA I received this letter many times - then one day I decided it waso time to try it.d  C *******************************************************************t  / YOU CAN START TODAY - JUST DO THESE EASY STEPS:a   STEP #1. ORDER THE FOUR REPORTS:  > Order the four reports shown on the list below (you can't sell= them if you don't order them). -- For each report, send $5.00,7 CASH, the NAME & NUMBER OF THE REPORT YOU ARE ORDERING,cB YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS, and YOUR NAME & RETURN ADDRESS (in case of a B problem) to the person whose name appears on the list next to the  report.   E MAKE SURE YOUR RETURN ADDRESS IS ON YOUR ENVELOPE IN CASE OF ANY MAILt	 PROBLEMS!e  ? Within a few days you will receive, by e-mail, each of the foura@ reports. Save them on your computer so you can send them to the / 1,000's of people who will order them from you.H  0 STEP #2. ADD YOUR MAILING ADDRESS TO THIS LETTER2 a. Look below for the listing of the four reports.E b. After you've ordered the four reports, delete the name and addresss; under REPORT #4. This person has made it through the cycle.)? c. Move the name and address under REPORT #3 down to REPORT #4.w? d. Move the name and address under REPORT #2 down to REPORT #3.s? e. Move the name and address under REPORT #1 down to REPORT #2.i6 f. Insert your name/address in the REPORT #1 position.B Please make sure you COPY ALL INFORMATION, every name and address, ACCURATELY!w  @ STEP #3. Take this entire letter, including the modified list of> names, and save it to your computer. Make NO changes to these A instructions. Now you are ready to use this entire email to send e by email to prospects.  E Report #1 will tell you how to download bulk email software and email-H addresses so you can send it out to thousands of people while you sleep!F Remember that 50,000+ new people are joining the internet every month.  C Your cost to participate in this is practically nothing (surely youaK can afford $20 and initial bulk mailing cost). You obviously already have a-7 computer and an Internet connection and e-mail is FREE!0  8 There are two primary methods of building your downline:  A METHOD #1: SENDING BULK E-MAIL Let's say that you decide to startsC small, just to see how it goes, and we'll assume you and all those tD involved email out only 2,000 programs each. Let's also assume that A the mailing receives a 0.5% response. The response could be much tA better. Also, many people will email outhundreds of thousands of 'C programs instead of 2,000 (Why stop at 2000?). But continuing with  J this example, you send out only 2,000 programs. With a 0.5% response, that is only 10 orders for   K REPORT #1. Those 10 people respond by sending out 2,000 programs each for ah@ total of 20,000. Out of those 0.5%, 100 people respond and order  A REPORT #2. Those 100 mail out 2,000 programs each for a total of a6 200,000. The 0.5% response to that is 1,000 orders for  D REPORT #3. Those 1,000 send out 2,000 programs each for a 2,000,000 5 total. The 0.5% response to that is 10,000 orders fors  2 REPORT #4. That's 10,000 $5 bills for you. CASH!!!B Your total income in this example is $50 + $500 + $5,000 + $50,000 for a total of $55,550!!!f  C REMEMBER FRIEND, THIS IS ASSUMING 1,990 OUT OF THE 2,000 PEOPLE YOUl: MAIL TO WILL DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AND TRASH THIS PROGRAM!A DARE TO THINK FOR A MOMENT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF EVERYONE, OR HALFfD SENT OUT 100,000 PROGRAMS INSTEAD OF 2,000. Believe me, many people  will do just that, and more!  , METHOD #2 - PLACING FREE ADS ON THE INTERNETD Advertising on the internet is very, very inexpensive, and there areI HUNDREDS of FREE places to advertise. Let's say you decide to start smallsK just to see how well it works. Assume your goal is to get ONLY 10 people tosK participate on your first level. (Placing a lot of FREE ads on the InternetnJ will EASILY get a larger response.) Also assume that everyone else in YOUR, ORGANIZATION gets ONLY 10 downline members.   A Look how this small number accumulates to achieve the STAGGERING n results below:  = 1st level--your first 10 send you $5 .....................$50-= 2nd level--10 members from those 10 ($5 x 100)...........$500m= 3rd level--10 members from those 100 ($5 x 1,000)......$5,000-= 4th level--10 members from those 1,000 ($5 x 10,000)..$50,000   D $$$$$$ THIS TOTALS -----------------------------------$55,550 $$$$$$  D AMAZING ISN'T IT? Remember friends, this assumes that the people whoF participate only recruit 10 people each. Think for a moment what wouldE happen if they got 20 people to participate! Most people get 100's ofrE participants and many will continue to work this program, sending outo: programs WITH YOUR NAME ON THEM for years! THINK ABOUT IT!  0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  C People are going to get emails about this plan from you or somebodyiI else and many will work this plan - the question is - Don't you want your , name to be on the emails they will send out?   * * * DON'T MISS OUT!!!t   * * * JUST TRY IT ONCE!!! * * *n   * * SEE WHAT HAPPENS!!!w   *** YOU'LL BE AMAZED!!!* *  0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  . ALWAYS PROVIDE SAME-DAY SERVICE ON ALL ORDERS!  D This will guarantee that the e-mail THEY send out with YOUR name andD address on it will be prompt because they can't advertise until they receive the report!h  0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  = GET STARTED TODAY: PLACE YOUR ORDER FOR THE FOUR REPORTS NOW.s  I Notes: -- ALWAYS SEND $5 CASH (U.S. CURRENCY) FOR EACH REPORT.
