NAME:Newell Company chain letter

Several chain letters appeared in March, 2000, that promised big money if they were passed on. The highest sum was promised in the chain letter below:

 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.

Please ignore this chain letter and do not pass it on.
