Stuffing envelopes: “You can make extra money stuffing envelopes at home!”  This is an old scam, it has been around for years offline and online.  Advertisements appear for this in newspapers at the local library back for decades.  But people still fall prey to this scam.

People tend to fall for this one because the scammers make it sound like the tons of junk mail we receive every day comes from someone stuffing it into envelopes, someone working at home.

But the reality is that the stuffing is handled by machine, or sometimes it is manual labor but they are very poorly paid in an assembly-line type arrangements.  This is sweatshop work, not work from home.

To make it worse, the scammer usually wants a “fee” to get you the material you need to get started stuffing envelopes.  Unfortunately, what you usually get is just instructions for how you can scam others into paying you a fee for information like you just received!

It’s definitely a scam, and you can’t get your money back unless you turn around and scam others into sending you money to help them get started stuffing envelopes.  And so the scam continues.

Fact: There is no such thing as an envelope stuffing business you can run from home!
