SORRY EVERYBODY . . . JUST HAD TO TAKE THE CHANCE !!!

I'm an attorney and I know the law.  This thing is for real.   Rest
assured AOL and Intel will follow through with their promises for fear
of facing a multimillion-dollar class action suit similar to the one
filed by PepsiCo against General Electric not too long ago.   

Dear Friends,  

Please do not take this for a junk letter. Bill Gates is sharing his
fortune. If you ignore this you will repent later.  Microsoft and AOL
are now the largest Internet companies and in an effort to make sure
that Internet Explorer remains the most widely used program, Microsoft
and AOL are running an e-mail beta test.  When you forward this e-mail
to friends, Microsoft can and will track it (if you are a Microsoft
Windows user) for a two week time period.  For every person that you
forward this e-mail to, Microsoft will pay you $245.00, for every
person that you sent it to that forwards it on, Microsoft will pay you
$243.00 and for every third person that receives it, you will be paid
$241.00.  Within two weeks, Microsoft will contact you for your address
and then send you a cheque. 

I thought this was a scam myself, but two weeks after receiving this
e-mail and forwarding it on, Microsoft contacted me for my address and
within days, I received a cheque for US$24,800.00. You need to respond
before the beta testing is over. If anyone can afford this Bill Gates is
the man.  It's all marketing expense to him. Please forward this to as
many people as possible.  You are bound to get at least US$10,000.00. 
We're not going to help them out with their e-mail beta test without
getting a little something for our time. My brother's girlfriend got in
on this a few months ago. When I went to visit him for the Baylor/UT
game.   She showed me her check. It was for the sum of $4,324.44 and was
stamped "Paid In Full".

Like I said before, I know the law, and this is for real.  Intel and AOL
are now discussing a merger which would make them the largest
Internet company and in an effort make sure that AOL remains the most
widely used program, Intel and AOL are running an e-mail beta test. 
Try it; what have you got to lose????

When you forward this e-mail to friends, Intel can and will track it (if
you are a Microsoft Windows user) for a two week time period. For
every person that you forward this e-mail to, Microsoft will pay you
$203.15. For every person that you sent it to that forwards it on,
Microsoft will pay you $156.29.  And for every third person that
receives it, you will be paid $17.65.  Within two weeks, Intel will contact
you for your address and then send you a check. I thought this was a
scam myself, but a friend of my good friend's Aunt Patricia, who works at
Intel, actually got a check of  $4,543.23 by forwarding this e-mail. Try
it, what have you got to lose????
