MAKE CASH!!! (THIS IS A FAKE SCAM LETTER!)
Dear Friend,
My name is Dave Rhodes. In September 1988 my car was
reposessed and the bill collectors were hounding me like you
wouldn't believe. I was laid off and my unemployment checks
had run out. The only escape I had from the pressure of
failure was my Apple computer and my modem. I longed to
turn my advocation into my vocation.
This January 1989 my family and I went on a ten day
cruise to the tropics. I bought a Lincoln Town Car for CASH
in Feburary 1989. I am currently building a home on the
West Coast of Florida, with a private pool, boat slip, and 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 $400,000.00 (Four Hundred Thousand Dollars)
to date and will become a millionaire within 4 or 5 months.
Anyone can do the same. 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.
In October 1988, I received a letter in the mail
telling me how I could earn $50,000 dollars 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 desparate, backed into a corner, your mind does
crazy things. I spent a frustating 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
Apple computer and calling several bulletin boards. I read
several of the message posts and than glanced at the letter
next to the computer. All at once it came to me, I now had
the key to my dreams.
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 computer bulletion boards in place of the
post office and electronically did by computer what others
were doing 100% 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 someday you deserve that lucky break that you have
waited for all your life, simply follow the easy
instructions below. Your dreams will come true.
Sincerely yours,
Dave Rhodes
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 Mail Order! This little business is
a little different than most mail order houses. Your product
is not solid and tangible, but rather a service. You are in
the business of developing Mailing lists. Many large
corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists.
(The money made from the mailing lists are secondary to the
income which is made from people like yourself requesting
that they be included in that list.)
1) Immediately mail $1.00 to the first 5 names listed
below starting at number 1 through number 5. Send cash only,
please (total investment $5.00). Enclose a note with each
letter stating: "Please add my name to your mailing list."
(This is a legitimate service that you
are requesting and you are paying $1.00
for this service).
2) Remove the name that appears number 1 on the list.
Move the other 9 names up one position. (Number 2 will
become number 1 and number 3 will become number 2, etc.)
Place your name, address and zip code in the number 10
position.
3) Post the new letter with your name in the number 10
position into 10 (Ten) separate bulletin boards in the
message base or to the file section, call the file,
MAKE.MONEY.FAST.
4) 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 and people are sending you $1.00 to be placed
on your mailing list. This list can than be rented to a list
broker that can be found in the Yellow Pages for additional
income on a regular basis. The list will become more
valuable as it grows in size. This is a service. This is
perfectly legal. If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18,
Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the postal lottery laws.
NOTE: Make sure you retain EVERY Name and Address sent
to you, either on computer or hard copy, but do not
discard the names and notes they send you. This is
PROOF that you are truely providing a service and
should the IRS 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, five members will be reimbursed for
their participation as a List Developer with one dollar
each. Your name will move up the list geometrically so that
when your name reaches the number five position you will be
receiving thousands of dollars in cash.

The following letters were written by participating members
in this program.
To Whom It May Concern:
About six months ago I received the enclosed post in
letter form. I ignored it. I received about five more of
the same letter withn the next two weeks. 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. I was wrong!
About three weeks later I saw this same letter posted on a
local bulletion 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 wouldn't be too quick to part with Five dollars. But,
I buy lottery tickets weekly in my province 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 one dollar in each as directed.
Two weeks went by and I didn't recieve anything in the mail.
The fourth week rolled around and I couldn't believe what
happened! I can't say I received $50,000, but it was
definitely well over $35,000! For the first time in ten
years, I got out of debt. It was great. Of course, it
didn't 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.
Please send a copy of this letter along with the
enclosed letter so together we can convince people who are
skeptical that it really works!
Good Luck,

Another letter:
I tried a similar program in which the cost was $5.00 per
response. In that one the return was about 3%. Since I did
not have a modem I sent out letters regular mail. I created
mailing labels with Appleworks and printed the labels on
pressure sensitive tape. The first mailing that I used the
$1.00 dollar per reponse approach I started to get return
mail in just over one week! I sent out 200 letters instead
of 100 that is required if you use the mail instead of the
bulletion boards. Additionally, I included as many friends,
relatives, classmates, that I could think of in order to
encourage their participation if they happened to recognize
my name, so my percnetage of gain was higher. I am trying
again with 500 letters to see if I surpass the $141,000 of
the last time. You just won't beleive it until you try.
Best Wishes,

Additional Notes:
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 dollar 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 approxiamate that
then received from the posts listed on the bulletin boards.
Another letter:
I was working the grave yard night shift at the
hospital administration office and was bored to tears. I
saw this letter laying on my desk from the previous shift.
I had nothing better to do so I figured, Why not? I ran off
over 100 copies on the office copier. I found some blank
envelopes in a desk drawer and began to hand write the
addresses from the telephone book. I borrowed the postage
meter and stamped the envelopes. Carefully I stuffed the
envelopes not forgetting to put in the five one dollar bills
to the first five names. I put the entire lot in the mail
bag. Total time from start to finish was three and one half
hours which included several short stops to answer the
telephone and fill out an admission slip. Total cost to me
$5.00 dollars.
Fourty two days later I gave notice to my employer and
I will never have to work the night shift again.

PS. I made a nice size donation to the hospital building
fund. I figured it was the least I could do for the use of
the postage and office supplies.

I'm so amused that you published this old chain letter from the 90s. Thanks, I guess! Such a blast from the past (I remember it!) that I feel displaced in time now. I wish I could go back.
