Answer 1

Well let me tell you Im one of the schmucks, I tried it a

month ago, havent received anything yet. If you want to try

all youd be losing is the 6 dolars.

Good luck!!!!

Answer 2

Ever hear that chain letters are illegal?  If you get such a letter in the US mail, you should turn it in to the post office.

Apparently the new buzz words to give scams an air of legitimacy is "on Oprah and 20/20".  This is the second scam I've seen lately using that claim.

Answer 3

This is not legal.  This is a classic illegal pyramid scheme.  Very old scam.  You are wasting your time and money.

Answer 4

Look up Dave Rhodes. Then wince in agony imagining that happening to you. Same scam, and look where it got him.

Avoid such letters, and report the senders to the authorities.
