    Hi,i'm new in this,and i'm lookink for a good oppurtunity in making money true the internet.Please tell me your opinion about this ad that i find on different websites:

    The message:
    I fo* Easy $20,000 Into Your Paypal Account *
    Do this, it`s SO Simple Fast and Easy...!!!!
    Follow the directions below and in two weeks you`ll have at least
    $20,000 dollars because most people respond due to low investment and
    high profit potential. We believe the return rate is currently as good as 80%!
    If you need to open a PayPal account go here:
    https://www.paypal.com/us/mrb/pal=3Q4572F79RS3G
    just donate five dollars ($5.00) to one (1) person!
    After the first time, you`ll see how EASY it is and it DOES work! Now let me tell you the simple details!
    *Log into your PayPal account, and send $5.00 to:
    NEXT DUE: dbsbanners@aol.com
    Who is currently the next person in line. PayPal will ask to
    select a type. Select Service, and put E-Donation for the subject.
    *Next, move this address: pgnts@aol.com
    PENDING:
    up into the NEXT DUE slot and put your own e-mail address into
    the PENDING slot. After you have retyped the names in the new order,
    send this e-mail to as many people as possible IMMEDIATELY! (Using a Bulk Email Service will really boost your donations), use blasters, safelists, whatever you have.
    That`s ALL there is to it! When your name reaches the first
    position in about 2 days (or less), it will be YOUR turn to receive
    donations!
    They will be sent to you by approximately TWO THOUSAND people like
    yourself who are willing to invest $5 to receive $20,000!!!! Because there are only two (2) names on the list, you can anticipate your donations coming incredibly FAST, a
    lot faster than similar programs with 4, 5, or 6 names on the list.

    PLEASE DON`T CHEAT!
    If you send to 50 prospects with yourself in
    NEXT DUE, you might see $250. If you follow the instructions correctly,
    then in
    ONE or TWO days (it`s FAST!) you should receive donations from around
    2000
    people! $20,000!!!!
    Most people spend more than $5 on lottery every week or two with
    no real hope of ever winning. Remember - TIME is of the essence! YOU
    can choose to live paycheck to paycheck or live FREE from FINANCIAL BONDAGE ! THIS is the answer to our prayers! GET BUSY!!!!
    *Just copy and paste this letter to notepad or similar text
    editor, then make the next due and pending e-mail changes!!!

    Thats it, it really is simple!!!

    DO NOT SPAM - it`s against the LAW.

    BE SURE TO COPY THIS LETTER ALL THE WAY DOWN TO HERE
