40,000 in the mail

I once received a letter in the mail telling me that if I send out one $20 US bill and follow the other instructions, I could receive multiple $20 US bills in return by mail. I remember that I have seen something similar to this a few years before but instead, it said to send one $1 US bill each to five people. Has anyone here on myLot ever heard of this or has tried it? Did it work? What do you think about it?

Yes, as others say, these are just the ways of scamming. I once got this, and since that was the first time, I responded them, that they might have been mistaken (yes, for lol reasons, I was too honest!)...but then, later on, with the elp of elders I realised that those are ways to phishing and scamming and after that, what I saw was that my ID got spammed with similar emails! Luckily, I could get rid of those, and got back over the control of my id through some contacts I knew! Stay away from those, don't even try to look at such emails. Mark them spam immediately, and forget that you have seen such emails...Do not even think of replying in whatever case or whatever condition you are if you want to avoid my condition! lol :)Yes, as others say, these are just the ways of scamming.

It's one of the oldest scams out there. I to have received these type of letters and the first time I had thought about doing it. I laid it aside and forgot about it. Well then a few months went by and I got another one. I never did end up giving into this trick. Wonder how many people did and actually got something back for the efforts.

Yes I've received the same type of letter about 2years ago but I never follow thru with it. I was skeptical, thinking it was a scam. It is unusual
