I guess there must be some people out there who actually fall for these things. Hard to believe!

All you need to do is a bit of elementary math - even if it works perfectly (which it will not), the scheme will soon run out of new suckers. Example - you send the letter to 6 people. The six folks who get your e-mail, one down from you, have to send it to have to send it to six each, for a total of 36. By the time you get to the folks twelve or thirteen levels down, you've exhausted all the people in the world. No one left to send it to, unless you send it to the same folks.
