greetings all
i have recently started a project called The New Forest of Joseph
Beuys and i need your assistance
its a little involved so i greatly appreciate your contributions
there is an insurance company in the united states called 21st
century and they have begun a promotional campaign in which they will
plant a tree in your name when you use their website to get an
automobile insurance estimate.
here is the link to begin the process:
http://lp.21st.com/tree/
the first step is to put in the zip code of an area in the united
states where you supposedly live. here is a link to a website that
shows you a list of zip codes by state and city:
http://www.zip-codes.com/
once you choose a city and a corresponding zip code then you will
need to fill out a series of forms. please create artificial names,
addresses and other information to complete these forms. the address
that you choose should be the city that corresponds with the zip code
you put in the first page. they will only plant one tree per customer
so you have to create totally different information each time you
submit the forms.
you must also give a different email address each time, so it will be
necessary to create an artificial email account for each form that
you submit where you can receive a message from the insurance company.
i would suggest using hotmail.com or yahoo.com as it is quick and
easy to set up email accounts there.
once you have submitted all the forms, then check the fake email
account you have set up and you should receive 2 messages from them,
one that gives you the quote or cost of the insurance and another
that is a letter thanking you for planting a tree. in that letter
about the tree, there is a link where you can view the certificate
proving that a tree was planted in your name (or at least planted in
the name that you submitted for the quote).
this is what i need to track the names used and the amount of trees
planted. please forward me this email upon receipt.
thepowderkeg at hotmail.com
the goal is to either have 7000 trees planted as was the goal of
Beuys in his venture 25 years ago or to cause the promotional
campaign to cease due to over-activity.
please forward this to as many people as possible and feel free to
create translations into languages other than english to allow it to
be passed around even more
i greatly appreciate your assistance in this project and please email
me with any questions
