I have rec'd a 3 page letter in the mail yesterday saying to send a dollar to 7 people on this list make 200 copies of these letters call and get mailig labels from this company and send these letters out with my name now being in the 7th spot. Has anyone ever heard of these letters before or done it? Your supposed to get around 800k back from it hell even it was $500 it would be worth doing. I'm thinking of contacting the names on the paper just to see what they have to say. If anyone has done this before let me know if its a scam or not.

There were 7 names. 1. send letter to 200 2. those 200 send it to 200 there are 40 000 3. 40 000 * 200 = 8 000 000 4. 8 000 000 * 200 = 1 600 000 000 5. 1 600 000 000 * 200 = 320 000 000 000 6. 320 000 000 000 * 200 = 64 000 000 000 000 Okay every person doesn't forward letter, but you get the idea. Someone could probably get rich, it's not impossible, but there are limited amount of humans in world. So everybody can't get rich and amount of people who has been involved this is raising very fast. Anyway this surely can work, but more likely not.
