Newell Company Give-away

Date: January 2000

This chain letter claims that the Newell company wants to see if people spread chain letters. It is not hard to tell that this is a fake. Consider, how would you rent an e-mail tracker, especially since they do not exist. Why would Ryan Newell of the Newell company think that his promotion was a hoax? How can he put in his e-mail the results of what happened after he sent the e-mail?

Subject: URGENT! RESPOND QUICKLY, SERIOUSLY

Important, The Newell Company is trying to
Figure out how many people pass along those
stupid e-mails along and supposedly get money.

So heres how this one works. For the next
month Our family has rented an e-mail tracker
and we are tracking this e-mail. So if you get this
e-mail and forward it we will be able to make you
very happy.

For every person you send this to you will get
$399, and for every person that you sent this to
who forwards this you will get $199.

Now this is not a hoax. I, Ryan Newell,
thought myself that this was a hoax
but I sent it to you all and ten(10) days
later I got a check for $3990. I
urge you to do the same. Good luck and don't
spend your money all in one place.
