I don't care about the money, so I won't bother keeping track. But this is something people can easily do, even if they only spend a few minutes a day (or whatever) doing it.
Easy, painless, and advertises the language to people who probably have never heard of it before. Very good!

Doesn't mean we have six new students, but it does mean we've got six people newly aware (if only marginally) of Esperanto. And they at least now know where to find out more. That's all to the good.

I think I'll pass, let someone else get the money... I doubt you'll remember in a year.

Maverynthia:Well, the simple fact that your yelling and screaming at me now SERIOUSLY tells me it's probably a scam. Giving away $1000? Too good to be true.Not that your helping the 'yelling and screaming' by what you're saying, Maverynthia .

And to pay someone $1000 only requires the account name, BSB and Account Number (or so it goes for me with ANZ). Therefore they can't take money away from you.
And while $1000 is a nice incentive, it's not exactly too good to be true. The Commonwealth of Australia gave me $900 AUD in May for sitting on my bum doing nothing. Google allows you to set up a website for free, put a google adverts box on that website for free, and sends you checks with the profit.
As a mate used to shout out in the middle of highschool classes: "REMAIN CALM!!!!" Although it's good to see you've got your wits about you and are remaining wary of the internet!
Anyway back to the topic, I think a marketing campaign directed at English speakers would be great. Not marketing campaign as in Ingsoc style, but more a gentle 'bored? learn esperanto!'
