Why would companies pay you to stuff envelopes when they can get an envelope stuffing machine that will automate the envelope stuffing inexpensively?

Today, machines are used to stuff envelopes for less than one cent each. Why would anyone pay you more than this? They won't.

Here's why envelope stuffing is a scam

You pay a registration fee. This is how the scam operator makes money.

The scam operator will then send you a copy of the ad you originally responded to to solicit other people to suff ads into envelopes. You have to place ads telling people they can make money stuffing envelopes, and ask them to send a self-addressed stamped envelope for information.

When you receive someone's self-addressed stamped envelope, you send them a copy of the ad.

You have just "stuffed an envelope." If this person sends in the registration fee to the operator (like you did), the operator will send you $1 (or other amount that was promised in the ad) for "stuffing the envelope."

You advertise for the operator for very low pay. You should expect a response rate of 1/4% to 1/2%. This means that if you get 200 responses from your ad, you'll make $1. Not a good way to make money!

The other envelope scams works like this.

You send the registration fee, and the operator sends you a package containing the components of the operator's mailings. You must assemble, fold, and stuff the envelopes according to the operator's exact instructions.

Then, you send the stuffed envelopes back to the operator. You will be paid for each stuffed envelope that "meets their standards." None of the envelopes you stuffed will meet their standards. They will always find a reason not to pay you.

Don't fall for envelope stuffing scams. Save your money and put it towards a legitimate business.
