The Credible Report

Pensacola, FL - The Richard Daft family of Des Moines, Iowa just returned home from a fabulous week at Disney World - and they didn’t have to spend a dime of their own money on the vacation. In fact, they had an extra $5,000 cash to spend while there (or to save if they so chose).

Odds are you have seen or heard of the Disney email tracking giveaway that flooded the country a couple of years ago. Well the results are in and participants are now being compensated for their email forwarding efforts.

Richard Daft’s wife, Dorothy, received an email from a friend in 2001 which promised $5,000 and/or a Disney vacation if the email was forwarded on to all friends and family. Disney wanted to test their new email tracking program and would compensate participants once the email had reached 13,000 people.

The Dafts were notified in the fall of 2004, by email of course, that they were chosen as winners of the grand prize: A trip for four to Disney World in Florida and $5,000 cash.

“That [email] turned out to be the best one I ever forwarded,” said Dorothy Daft. The Dafts said they will definitely participate in other similar projects, if they have the opportunity.

The Dafts did not spend the entire $5,000 prize while in Florida and plan to use some of the money for a home makeover as well as paying down credit cards.

Hello Disney fans,

My name is Walt Disney Jr. Here at Disney we are working with Microsoft which has just compiled an e-mail tracing program that tracks everyone to whom this message is forwarded to. It does this through an unique IP (Internet Protocol) address log book database. We are experimenting with this and need your help. Forward this to everyone you know and if it reaches 13,000 people, 1,300 of the people on the list will receive $5,000 and a free trip for four to Disney World for one week at our expense. Enjoy.

Note: Duplicate entries will not be counted. You will be notified by email with further instructions once this email has reached 13,000 people.

Your friend,

Walt Disney Jr.
