I came across this the other day and thought it might be of interest.

To make money you simply send out an e-mail to 40 people asking them to deposit £3 in the paypal account of the person at the top of a list of 5 names. The last name on that list would be yours. They then delete the name of the person they sent the money to, add their name to the list at number 5 and forward the list and instructions on to another 40 people.

If you send out your email to 40 different people, you can expect at least 5 of those people to do exactly what you did (12.5% of 40 = 5). By this time, your email address will have moved up to Number 4 in the list, and this list will now have reached around 200 people (5 x 40).

Out of those 200 people, you can expect at least 25 of them to participate (12.5% of 200 = 25), so that's a further 1,000 emails (25 x 40) being sent out and your email address will have risen to Number 3 in the list.

Out of those 1,000 people, you can expect at least 125 of them to participate (12.5% of 1,000 = 125), so that's a further 5,000 emails (125 x 40) being sent out with you now at the Number 2 position.

Out of those 5,000 people, you can expect at least 625 of them to respond (12.5% of 5,000 = 625), so that's 25,000 emails (625 x 40) being sent out with YOUR ADDRESS at the Number 1 spot!

Now, out of those 25,000 people, you can expect around 3,125 of them to respond (12.5% of 25,000 = 3,125). And since you will now be at NUMBER 1 in the list, you will receive: £9,375 (3,125 x £3).

I’m not saying that this will work and as you will see my name is at number 5 so I’m still waiting to see if I get a penny. But the most I’m going to loose is £3 but I could end up with a new range rover (well if I do it 6 times!)

So you will need a paypal account from www.paypal.co.uk which will require you having a credit card and e-mail address and that’s about it.

So if you think this might work try it. If you see a pitfall that could cost me then please let me know.

So the list as it stands
