Dear Friend,

THIS IS THE BEST MONEY MAKING SYSTEM OF ALL!! 
NO SELLING, FOLLOW-UPS OR INTENSIVE LABOR!!
NO RISK AND EASY AS PIE!! READ CAREFULLY!!

"TRUE STORY" SEEN ON ABC's 20-20 "BOY 15 MAKES 71 THOUSAND IN 5 WKS!!!"

AS SEEN ON NATIONAL TV: THIS IS THE ONE!

Parents of 15-year-old find $71,000 cash hidden in his closet.

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 15-year-old sons 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 had discovered. He came home right away and they drove 
together to the boys 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, a type of "Report" 
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 5 addresses and contained instructions to 
send one $5 dollar bill to each person on the list, then delete the address at 
the top and move the others addresses down , and finally to add your name to 
the top of the list.

The letter goes on to state that you would receive several thousand dollars in 
five-dollar bills within 2 weeks if you sent out the letter with your name at 
the top of the 5-address list. "I get junk E-mail all the time, and really did 
not think it was going  to work", the boy continues.

Within the first few days of sending out the E-mail, the Post Office Box that 
his parents had gotten him for his video-game magazine subscriptions began to 
fill up with not magazines, but envelopes containing $5 bills.  "About a week 
later I rode [my bike] down to the post office and my box had 1 magazine and 
about 300 envelops stuffed in it. There was also 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 because I 
could not 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, 
barely had time for my homework". He had also been riding his bike to several 
of the banks in his area 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 would not 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)."

In fact, the boy did not have any reason to be afraid. 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 state a product or service must be 
exchanged for money received.

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 this 
letter.
