While in the Philippines, Gene Welch lost his wife six days after receiving this letter. He failed to circulate this letter. However, before her death she won $5 million in a lottery. The money was transferred to him four days after he decided to mail this letter.
Please send out twenty copies of this letter and see what happens in four days. The chain comes from Venezuela and was written by Paul Anthony Decnoff, a missionary from South America.
