Subject: Fwd: Crinitti Sales and Marketing Newsletter
Let me ask you something, Penny.
Are you tired of being stuck in this poor economy?
Tired of barely making ends meet?
I know I was, until I found Crinitti. They actually guarantee
that you will make at least $7,852 a month by following
their simple instructions or they will cut you a check for
$3,000 just for trying!
You can try it to by visiting www.getridofdebt.biz.
If you're thinking this is some kind of scam, think again.
There ARE some good ones out there and this is one of
them.
I have been doing Internet Marketing for a long time.
Crinitti is about the easiest money I have ever made. I
have been averaging $300 a day with it and I only spend
30 minutes a day.
If you just delete this email without even looking I hope
you're happy with your life and income the way it is
right now because it's not going to change unless you
do something to change it.
