Where can I find a legit job stuffing envelopes from home?
According to the FTC$550 to $3,000 weekly. Ten dollars for each circular you mail...Free Postage...Free Circulars...No Newspaper Ads...No Magazine Ads...No Bulletin Board Ads! Paychecks mailed to you every week! Advance paycheck forms included in your package!! Sound familiar? Of course. Ads for envelope-stuffing "opportunities" seem to be everywhere - from your mailbox to your newspaper to your e-mail inbox. Promoters usually advertise that, for a "small" fee, they will tell you how to earn big money stuffing envelopes at home. They claim that they'll pay you a certain amount of money for each envelope stuffed, resulting in hundreds or thousands of dollars for you each week. These ads may seem appealing, especially if you are looking for a home-based business. But according to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, ads like these don't tell the whole story because the promoters aren't really offering a job. Instead, say FTC attorneys, after you send your money, you're likely to get a letter telling you to place the same "envelope-stuffing" ad in newspapers or magazines, or to send the ad to friends and relatives. The only way you'll earn money is if people respond to your ad; in fact, the government says, the promoters themselves rarely pay anyone.If you're tempted by an envelope stuffing "opportunity," here are some questions to ask the promoters before you send any money or sign up to receive more information: * Who will pay me? * When will I get my first paycheck? * Will I be paid a salary or will my pay be based on commission? * What tasks will I have to perform? * What is the total cost of the envelope-stuffing program, including supplies, equipment, and membership fees? What will I get for my money? The answers to these questions may help you determine whether an envelope-stuffing opportunity is appropriate for your circumstances and whether it's legitimate. It also may help to check out the company with your local consumer protection agency, state Attorney General, and the Better Business Bureau in the community where the company is located as well as the community where you live. These organizations can tell you whether they have received complaints about the promotion that interests you. The absence of complaints doesn't necessarily mean the promotion is legitimate. Unscrupulous promoters may settle complaints, change their names, or move to avoid detection. If you have spent money and time on a work-at-home program and now believe the program may not be legitimate, contact the company and ask for a refund. Let company representatives know that you plan to notify officials about your experience. If you can't resolve the dispute with the company, file a complaint with the following organizations: * The Federal Trade Commission works for the consumer to prevent fraud and deception.

A production-grade inserter will produce 8000 filled envelopes per hour. It's cheaper to hire one person to load pockets on inserters than it is to hire people to stuff envelopes, and the machine does a better job. == == * Yes, there is such a thing. But you are right to be very suspicious. Many of the ads you see for envelope-stuffing are scams. They charge you to receive the information to get started. With some of them, the job is a pyramid scheme where the letters you send out advertise envelope stuffing jobs. You make money in the same way the person you sent money to makes money. * Envelope stuffing is not legit! If you sign up for the company they will then send you information on how to run your own ad about envelope stuffing and scam other people into sending money to you. == == * Yes it is for real, but usually the pay is poor. Sometimes people volunteer to do this job and it really depends on the place that needs envelope stuffer's. Be careful! If the pay sounds too good in the ad then it usually isn't. If you enjoy working from home then try taking some on-line courses in the medical field (research the good programs before signing up) and you could work from home. I have done this often. I've worked for doctors of all sorts (in office) and there was a time I decided to stay home, but do the work from my own computer. == == * It's pretty much a scam, they mostly want you to recruit others to sign up for the same opportunity. * As with most envelope stuffing scams (yes, I will call them scams) you are required to gather the customers that send you envelopes to stuff. In other words, if you don't advertise, you don't stuff envelopes. Basically someone is double dipping their profit margin and you become that margin that makes them extra money aside from the product. My serious advise, stay away from envelope stuffing and go back to school. * It's a scam. The stuffing envelopes scam has been around for over 50 years and it's fake. Don't fall for it. * This is usually a scam or a very hard way to make any money. They will send you some advertising. You are supposed to put your name on it. Then you stuff the envelopes & mail them. If a customer orders an item you get a commission. Some companies don't pay you. Other times, the ad will have a phone number to call to order it, you don't get paid for those orders. Some products are over priced or it's stuff no one wants. It could be ads for insurance and most people throw that mail away without looking at it. It's probably not a good idea to get involved with those companies.
