Hello everyone,
I thought I would share a money idea I came across in a message board just like this one.It is very simple to follow and get some pretty amazing returns.
I wont go on about how much Ive made but I was very suprised when it all started kicking in.
Anyhow lets get on with it,I'll keep this short and sweet.
Step 1. Open a PAYPAL account if you dont have one already at go to paypal.com They are 100 % secure and its used by millions of people all over the world to transfere cash safely. It will take you about 2 minutes to open an account being sure to use the same email address there as you will for this idea.
Step 2. Log on to your PAYPAL account and send 1 dollar to each of the email address's below from the Paypal website.Thats right 1 whole dollar...thats all your outlay.
** Email Addresses Removed **
When you send the dollar to each address from paypal there is also a messagebox..In this box put the message PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST this mean that you are providing a service which makes this legal.
Step 3. When you have sent the dollars to each of the emails on the list though paypal you must retype or copy and edit this letter.
Remove the email address from the number 1 position and move number 2 into that spot.Move email 3 into number 2 spot and 4 up to 3 and so on.
Now place your email address at the bottom,number 6 position,this is the same email address as your paypal email as this is where your money will be sent. Your email in turn will climb up other peoples lists as they're sent...thats when the decent money comes in!!
Step 4. Go to search engines Yahoo google msn icq and type in money making,or business opportunities or work from home or your pc message boards and forums ,there are thousands upon thousands of them.You will need about 2-300 to make some very good money.You will need to post your updated document on these messageboards the more you find and post the better return.
Why this works?
Well for starters you are outlaying less than 10 dollars,hardly a risky venture.For that outlay its worth a go for the hundreds of dollars or more in return right..Are you sick of that job your doing or some extra cashj for holidays or a car...well this will do it. Its so simple a child could do it.
Theory..ok. you post your letter to 200 message boards or forums on making money there are thousands to choose from right. At worst you get a return of 5...thats five dollars! big deal you say..well thats all you need for a start.Those 5 people are now send out 200 each (1000) posts all with your email address on it.They get 5 replies each and make 5 dollars like you did. You receive 25 dollars because you have moved up the list.Those 25 people send out 200 posts and get 5 replies....now your getting 625 dollars..getting the picture
625x$625.... mmmmmm nice figures huh?
5
25
625........
And all you have done is send 6 dollars and posted the same letter the people on the list above you did to 200 message boards...easy work hey!
Well moneys there for the taking,please be honest and send the 1 dollar forward so its fair for everybody...the good karma will go along way.6 bucks is nothing when you see what you will receive
Cheers!

Since this is an MLM scheme like a "rotator", it does not belong in this topic area. I will move it to the MLM or "Advertising" category.

Hi all,
Unfortunately, this sounds like one of those "chain letter" or pyramid schemes that were so popular when I was a kid! I can't afford to lose $10 and I don't have the time or the energy this seems to require but thank you just the same!
Be Well...

Yah, thats what this is! It is the same thing as those chain letters. Basicly word for word just using email now and paypal instead of snail mail!
Once again a design built to make the top guys rich from the people who fall victum in my books... Also maybe check the paypal terms for usage of an account with mlm stuff, they tend to not like it
Its up too you to try it if you wish, but I would run the other way. My opinion
.....
Hope its working for you and all but I would look seriously into the legals of it in your country and the payment ways :) you don't wanna get to burned.....

i've read something like this pyramid before and am thinking of trying
only the one i've seen works like this
you pay the top paypal only! $10.00
in the message you ask for a copy of an e book about internet marketing.
this makes it legal (supposedly)cause it s a service or sale
you add your name to the bottom of the list and take out the top name
which has already been distributed .
then you distribute it at least 40 times by e mail or website however you choose
the numbers and percentage is the same at least 5% of people go for it you are supposedly receeiving an e book
as your name goes up the list you sit and wait untill it is in the #1 spot
then when you start recieving 10.00 payments you must then send a copy of the e book to every one who has payed you for it.
i ve sent an e mail to the last person on the list that i received(2weeksago)but i m not sure they speak english i think german or dutch they should have received $$by now i ll see if they respond.
what does every one here think about this
after all we are all looking for extra income maybe this is real %5 responce isn't that bad for a 10.00 gamble

Best of luck, but it's still not legal.
However, the legality really doesn't matter anyway because there are no real "Internet police" at this time. So, that's why so many companies scam everyone.

Hi Guys,
This sceme of setting up Pay pal Account, and sending $1 to lots of accounts here and there, should not even remotley be invovled in this MLM section. This is a pyramid scheme.
This only gives the legitamate MLM business's a bad name. I have been building a business that is going to put me in a financial situation that used to dream of, however it is being accomplished through a real MLM business not some scam, with out a tangible product.
Warmest regards,
Simon

some mlm businesses may not be outright 'scams' but the very nature of them means they cannot support themselves for ever. they are all destined to fail at some point. the people who get in early enough can make money but many will be left on the outside and lose their money. no mlm should be referd to as a legitimate. they may start out that way but in the end they all wind up down the same hole. the shiteeter.

For the most part, I agree with idle.
I mean, there are some companies -like SFI and Herbalife and Avon- that have a real product and a downline referral structure. Those companies have enough of a basis (and enough marketing plus financial backing) to stay alive and prosper.
But, for the most part, 99.999% of MLM companies --even those with so-called products-- are nothing more than "twists" on the original MLM schemes.
The real key is how truly valuable is the product being sold through the MLM and how viable is the downline structure? Both things are important.
In your case, you may have found something worthwhile, but in general; I feel that MLM programs belong in the "extremely high risk" category.
Cheers,
Brandon

There are alot of different MLM industries to choose from however YES...we must do our du dilligence on the company and products/services first.
Here in New Zealand, Amway is advertising on TV, you know, they are MLM and they have been around for over 50 years, not too bad for an MLM company that everybody thought would not last. You are right nothing is for ever...the only thing constant is change...however I will be happy when the MLM company that I am with gets to its 50th, or will they....Sceptism and no du diligence has lost me millions in the past, now I do my research.

75 percent of the world’s voice traffic by 2007."

"If you don't do it, next year or the one after that
you won't be playing in the game."
* Richard Notebaert, CEO Quest - referring to
the VOIP market speaking LAST YEAR !!!!
"There is no doubt that this is nothing short of a
revolution in telecom. It's not just a viable technology;
it's the directionall of telecom is going in."

yes amway has been around for 50 years. but that does not mean they have been sucessful for everyone for 50 years. the only reason amway has been around so long is because there is always a new batch of people willing to try it. as always some people do very well on these programs and can earn lots of money. but many, many more people never make anything worth their while or wind up losing money and sometimes lots. for every person that does well on amway their are hundreds that get all excited, join, buy a bunch of products and then try to hawk them off on their freinds who arn't interested and then look down at that person for 'trying to take advantage of friends' or something like that. many people join this program and fail and wind up with a basmnt full of amway crap that will take them years to use up.
if that is what you call amway being a sucessful program then yes i suppose it is. its sucessful for the owners and the people at the top of the chain. it feeds off of thousands of people who never follow through with their plans and lose their time and money, but it does it sucessfully for over 50 years.

OHHHHH so true, if it wasnt for the people that get all excited and then quit due to inexperience or lack of hard work, you know the "get rich quick" people, there are thousands of sites out there that prey on these people! Offering so many rewards till you join thinking "this could be true" then you get over loaded and quit while leaving your money with the company....

People fail in MLM for one reason "lack of quality training and education of home business". Any company with products and services can earn you a six figure income if marketed correctly. The problem is the average member will never break a $200 check in MLM. Get educated then get going. Jumping into a business on excitement will breed failure. Trust me. I have been there
