Anyone tried those pyramid chain letters and you mail $1 or $5 to 5 addresses and it claims you get $$$ back?

I received 2 of those "pyramid chain letters" in the mail claiming that if you mail $1 to the 5 addresses enclosed that it works as a chain and then people mail money back to you . I was wondering if anyone has ever tried that and if it worked. Thanks ! not sure what category to put this in either.

Ya !! It's a total crock of $h1T !!!!!!! ya never get your money back and you waste your time !!!! You could have used that money for a slurpee and relaxin !!!!

Thanks to all of you:

I must send my thanks to whoever sent me the email about rat poop in the glue on
envelopes because I now have to use a wet towel with every envelope that needs
sealing.

Also, now I have to scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason.

I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl (Penny Brown) who
is about to die in the hospital for the 1,387,258th time.

I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive the
$15,000 that Bill Gates/Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in
their special e-mail program.

I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for
me, and St. Theresa's novena has granted my every wish.

I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant freaks
with no eyes or feathers.

I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a water
buffalo on a hot day.

Thanks to you, I have learned that my prayers only get answered if I forward an
email to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes.

Because of your concern I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove
toilet stains.

I no longer can buy gasoline without taking a man along to watch the car so a
serial killer won't crawl in my back seat when I'm pumping gas.

I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr. Pepper since the people who make these products
are atheists who refuse to put "Under God" on their cans.

I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer.

And, thanks for letting me know I can't boil a cup water in the microwave
anymore because it will blow up in my face...disfiguring me for life.

I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with
a needle infected with AIDS.

I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume
sample and rob me.

I no longer receive packages from UPS or Fed Ex since they are actually Al
Qaeda in disguise.

I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don't support our American
troops or the Salvation Army.

I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for
which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica, Uganda, Singapore, and
Uzbekistan.

I no longer have any sneakers -- but that will change once I receive my free
replacement pair from Nike.

I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their
recipe.

Thanks to you, I can't use anyone's toilet but mine because a big brown recluse
spider is lurking under the seat to cause me instant death when it bites my butt.

Thank you too for all the endless advice Andy Rooney has given us. I can live a
better life now because he's told us how to fix everything.

And, thanks to your great advice, I can't even pick up the $5.00 I dropped in
the parking lot because it probably was placed there by a sex molester waiting
underneath my car to grab my leg.

Oh, and don't forget this one either...

I can no longer drive my car because I can't buy gas from certain gas companies!

If you don't send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next 70
minutes, a large dove with diarrhea will land on your head at 5:00 PM this
afternoon and the fleas from 12 camels will infest your back, causing you to
grow a hairy hump. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a
friend of my next-door neighbor's
ex-mother-in-law's second husband's cousin's beautician...

Have a wonderful day....

Dont ever do that...its a scam.

Those pyramid chain letters are considered mail fraud. Either report them to your post office or throw 'em away.

man i say that's a wast of your time they might send you money and might not so what ever they do is up to them if they send you money you get it if not you don't get it hope you do get it.

It is a waste of your time, money and effort. Also, it is against the law! Hope this answers your questions and helps.

It's a scam and also pyramid schemes are against the law. Don't do it.

If the vote for best answer doesn't go to Something....then I don't know who deserves it. That was THE BEST answer I have ever seen.

Way to Go!!!

No, it's a scam
Think about it. Why would people voluntarily mail money back to you?

Do NOT do these as they are scams and if you get caught doing them you may even get arrested for fraud or something. I would report these companies to the police if you see them. It is a good way to lose your money if that is your goal.

Of course they work if you are the one starting it.The first one on the list gets the money.
Something has a great answer for this type of question lol.
