PLEASE do'nt ignore this /very important

PLEASE do'nt ignore this /very important

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 week! s, Microsoft 
will contact you for your address and then send you a cheque.

Regards.

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.



When you forward this e-mail to friends, I! ntel 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 $4,54323 
by forwarding this e-mail.

Try it; what have you got to lose????

You know, this thing has been kicking around the Internet for about a year 
now, at least.  I never tried it because I thought I'd wait to see if 
someone else who I knew tried it and had any success.  I don't actually 
know anyone who did so far.

So have any of you actually done this and gotten any money from it?
