I Need Advice On Chain Letter Scams - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

There was this ad i saw on a website for Cleveland where u can make a lot of money by being on a mailing list. All u gotta do is copy down 6 people's names off the list & move the first person's name off the list & put my name there & start mailing out the people's letters with a $1 in each envelope telling them that i wanna join the list. In about 20 to 60 days i'm supposed to start seeing a lot of money. This dude on the website i read for this ad said he made $50,000 in a few weeks after he joined the mailing list. Do ya'll think this is a scam? I joined something like this before & one of the people that i mailed my $1 to sent my $1 back saying it was a scam.

Get rich schemes, never work. Let me put it a better way. If it were true, everybody would be doing it. Nobody would have to work. We'd just sit on our butt all day and just roll in money courtesy of junk mail.

If you need money, the only way to do it is go out and get a job and work for it. Don't do any crazy **** like trying to rob somebody. Ugh, I won't even get into that crap.
