There were several versions of such letter. Many people just changed the title of the Make Money Fast letter.
The make money fast latters are nothing but chain letters. This is how they work.
The letter encouraged readers of the e-mail to forward one dollar to the people in a list. And scratch the name on top of the list and add your own. If you promote the letter, and it becomes very popular, you will start to receive money. Lots and lots of money!
Make Money fast letters claim to be perfectly legal. There are some letters that even cite title 18 U.S. Code, Sections 1302. This deals with postal lotteries.
How to Really Make Money Fast.
Now a days not all the make money fast schemes use the US mail to transmit the money. the most commun method to send money is PayPal. It is true that not all people who participate in the pyramid are going to make any money. But if you teach all people have to get it done, and start their own moneymaking schemes, everyone becomes a winner. If you want to take part in a money making scheme like that, just do a Google search and thousands and thousands of forums will pop up.
Once again, thankd to Dave Rhodes, there is a way to actually make some money week. If you ever participated in such a scheme, and leave a comment and share with us how he went for you.

Dave Rhodes rotted in Federal prison for half a decade for that letter.
It's considered a weapon of mass (economic) destruction after what an earlier letter did to Colorado in the 1930s - almost destroyed a STATE.
You can potentially get hit for a million dollars in fines and/or up to 30 years in jail for promoting that letter, in any media.
Oh, and something else... Paypal's own warning about the supposedly "legal" letter:
