ENVELOPE STUFFING SCAMS and *It seems like every mail order publication has at least one ad in it *promising hundreds of dollars a week, just for stuffing envelopes. Some *even promise to pay $4 or $5 per envelope stuffed! So, many people send *off their hard earned money for the "registration fees" so they can get *started on this easy work. Then they are disappointed when they discover *they've been duped. Here's why the envelope stuffing programs are nothing *more than scams. and *First of all, the idea of paying someone to stuff envelopes is ridiculous. *Why pay someone even 50 cents to stuff an envelope when you can get an *envelope stuffing machine for a few hundred dollars? There must be more *to what you'll have to do then simply putting a paper in an envelope. and *In fact, there's more. The most prevalent envelope stuffing con game goes *like this. You pay your "registration fee" _ usually around $30.00, pure *profit for the scam operator. The operator will then send you a copy of *the ad you originally responded to, along with the wording to a classified *ad, telling people about how much money they can make stuffing envelopes, *and to send a self-addressed stamped envelope for information. When you *receive someone's SASE, you send them a copy of the ad. and *You have just "stuffed an envelope." If the poor sucker sends in the *registration fee to the operator (like YOU did), the operator will send *you $1 (or whatever was promised in the ad) for "stuffing the envelope." *The operator is left with expenses of around $2 and a profit of $28. and *Basically, you are doing all the advertising work for the operator for *extremely low pay. You should expect a response rate, if you're lucky, of *1/4% to 1/2%. At 1/2%, you'd have to get 200 responses to your classified *ad to get $1. Good luck. and *The other most common scheme goes like this. You send the usual *registration fee in, and the operator sends you a package containing all *the components of the operators mailings. You must assemble them, fold *them, and stuff the envelopes according to the operator's very exacting *instructions. Then, you send the stuffed envelopes back to the operator. *You will be paid for each stuffed envelope that "meets their standards." *Of course, none of the envelopes you stuffed will meet their standards. *They will find some reason not to pay you. Of course, that doesn't prevent *them from still sending out the envelopes you stuffed... and *So, you can see, that joining an envelope stuffing program is a bad idea. *Save the money you'd send in for the registration fee, and put it towards *a legitimate mail order business, and you'll be happier and more successful. and and and and |
