This totem has been sent to you for good luck. It has been sent around the 
world nine times so far. You will receive good luck within four days 
of relaying this totem. Send copies to people you think need good 
luck. Don't send money as fate has no price. Do not keep this message. 
The totem must leave your hands in 96 hours. Send ten copies and see 
what happens in four days. You will get a surprise. This is true, even 
if you are not superstitious. Good luck, but please remember: 10 copies of 
    this message must leave your hands in 96 hours... You must not sign on this message...
