Subject: Re: NEW INTERNET COMPANY!
I thought this was a site for enthusiasts of the africa twin. As I
understand your email, you browse the net looking for web sites you
can join. After joining you then send garbage emails offering get rich
quick schemes that are no more than rip off pyramid selling.
If you are a motorcyclist and want to make a valid contribution then
you are welcome. If however you are pyramid selling via this web site
then I suggest you take your money making scam and put it where the
sun doesn't shine.
Bob.

I'd

>This e-mail is about a new internet company that has a great
>business model. Without sounding corny or salesy, I want to encourage
>everyone to read this e-mail as soon as possible, because you can
make
>a lot of money and the earlier you sign up, the more you can make.
>This is not a joke or a trick, it's not play money or worthless
stock.
>It's cash. The e-mail is long, because the concept needs explaining.

>We've all witnessed how the Internet is changing the rules of the
>game. Well a bunch of Stanford Computer Science PhDs are changing
>the way advertisers pay to reach consumers. Throughout time,
>advertisers have paid anyone who can aggregate a large quantity of
>people. TV Networks, Radio Stations, Magazine and Newspaper
>publishers, whoever can do it. The consumers, who advertisers are
>paying to reach, never get a dime of that money. These guys are
>changing that. They're essentially going to "unionize" consumers,
>so
>that consumers get paid by the advertisers, not the companies who
>aggregate those consumers. This idea is so simple that it's crazy.
But
>it will work and anyone can sign up for free and make serious money.
>
>This company is called AllAdvantage. Just go to
>http://www.alladvantage.com/refhome.asp?refid=BFU-177
>if you use this address it will automatically know that we referred
you.
>
>
>Here's how it works. It's completely free to participate. You don't
>have to buy anything, you don't have to sell anything, you don't have
to
>change your web usage. If you go to their site and sign up, you'll
have to
>enter you name, address.You'll get your own Member ID number, and
you'll
>soon be sent a little
>file to download, which appears as a long thin window that'll be open
>below your web browser. In this window will be a standard online
>advertisement, a rectangular banner like the one's you see on most
web
>sites. You can open it or close the window whenever you'd like, but
for
>every hour you have that window open, you'll get $0.50. Up to 40
hours
>a month, you could make $20 a month. Nice so far, but that's just the
>beginning.
>
>They created a payment plan to create a model where
>everyone is getting everyone else to sign up. Remember, it's
completely
>free to participate, and you can always choose whether or not you
want
>the window open. They'll pay you 10 cents for every hour that a
person
>you refer has this window open. For anyone those people refer, you
>get a nickel for every hour. For everyone they refer, you get a
nickel
>also, and so on for 4 levels. This will generate big money for people
>who get in early.
>
>AN EXAMPLE
>Let's say everyone has 10 people who joined entering their Member ID
>number. And let's also say everyone has this window open for 10 hours
>a month.
>--You're on the web with this window open for 10 hours a month.
>50 cents an hour is $5.00
>--The ten people who were referred by you have it open for 10 hours
>a month, that's 100 user-hours. 10 cents per hour is $10.00
>--Each of those 10 refer 10, that's 100 people, each on for 10
>hours a month, that's 1000 user hours. 5 cents per hour is $50.00
>--Each of those 100 refer 10, that's 1000 people, each on for 10
>hours a month, that's 10,000 user hours. 5 cents per hour is $500.00
>--Each of those 1000 refer 10, that's 10,000 people, each on for 10
>hours a month, that's 100,000 user hours. 5 cents per hour is
$5,000.00
>
>That's it. Just for getting 10 people to sign up and put your number
>in as who referred them. And if you get more people, you make more
>money. There's no limit. They're counting on the fact that you'll get
>tons of people. There are over 50 million internet users, and many
have
>multiple PCs.
>
>WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS?
>You're probably thinking that they'll have to pay out hundreds of
>millions of dollars to people, and your right, they will have to pay
out
>hundreds of millions of dollars to consumers. But don't look at it
>from the macro level. Look at it from the micro level. It's so
simple.
>AllAdvantage is paying 80 cents for every hour a user has this window
>open.(50 cents to the user, 10 cent to whoever referred them, 5 cents
to
>the person who referred them, 5 cents to the person who referred
them, 5
>cents to the person who referred them, and 5 cents to the person who
>referred them). Every 20 seconds, a different ad rotates into the
>window, so 3 ads every minute, 180 ads every hour. If they can sell
>the 180 ads for more than 80 cents they're instantly profitable, and
>they'll be able to sell the ads for more.
>
>That's it. That's the whole thing. If they sell $10 million in
>advertising, they'll distribute $9 million or so to the users, and
keep
>the rest. Everyone wins.
>
>Companies who rely on advertising spend a lot of money to attract an
>audience, and build and staff a product. AllAdvantage is just going
to
>pay you as a valuable consumer and reward you for attracting an
>audience. A TV Network might put 90% of their ad revenue into
>programming and operations, and keep 10% as profits. This company
>will give 90% of their ad revenue to people who use them, and keep
10%
>for themselves. I told you it was simple.
>
>WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?
>Why not? It's completely free, and you can make a lot of money,
finally
>getting paid for advertisers to reach you. It doesn't effect or
>interrupt your time on the web, you still spend the same time surfing
as you
>always have, the same way you always have, the same sites you
>always have. The only difference is that you can have this window
>open below your web browser if you want to, and you'll get paid for
it.
>And if you tell a lot of people who also sign up, you'll get paid
even
>more.
>
>THE SOONER THE BETTER
>No matter when you sign up for this, you'll make some extra money.
But
>the people who sign up earliest, will make loads of money. The more
>you sign up the more you make, and the more they make.
>
>IS THIS A PYRAMID SCHEME?
>It's really not. It's kind of built on a similar premise, but it's
>totally free. There's no scheme! You don't pay anything or sell
>anything or spend your time any differently. In a pyramid scheme the
>last people in, lose. With this, the last person in still gets cash
>every month. Just not as much as the people who get in early. Just
>sign up, tell friends, and keep the window open if you want to.
>Advertisers will pay money to be in that window, and you'll get a
very
>nice share of that money. You may have seen similar ideas where
>companies are giving away stock, or other things. This is different..
>It's real.
>
> You'll be issued your own user
>number. Then cut and paste this email, changing the member ID number
to
>your user number, and e-mail it to as many people as you can think
of.
>Or mention this when you're talking to friends, or in a chat room, or
>where ever! The more people who sign up, the more advertising revenue
>AllAdvantage generates, and the more we all get paid. Don't ignore
this
>because it's "too simple" or "too good to be true". If
>you have any
>questions,please just go to the site and check it out. It's self
>explanatory.
>
>So go ahead...check it out..sign up. What have you got to lose?
