> 4) You save these 4 reports onto your computer;
> 5) You go back to this original letter and move everyone's name down one

> address in the first position;
> 6) You have this newly altered letter e-mailed to tens of thousands of
> people (usually people pay a bulk e-mailer to do this for them to
start);
> 7) When people receive this letter you sent them, they will see your name

> 8) When people order these reports, from you, you immediately e-mail it
to
> them (they will give you their e-mail address along with their $5.00).
