STUFFING: Typical Ad -- "$350 Weekly Guaran- teed! Work two hours daily at home stuffing envelopes." When answering such ads, you may not receive the expectedenvelopes for stuffing, but instead get promotional material asking forcash just for details on money-making plans. The details usually turnout to be instructions on how to go into the business of placing thesame kind of ad the advertiser ran in the first place. Pursuing theenvelope ad plan may require spending several hundred dollars more foradvertising, postage, envelopes, and printing. This system feeds oncontinuous recruitment of people to offer the same plan. There areseveral variations on this type of scheme, all of which require thecustomer to spend money on advertising and materials. According to theU.S. Postal Inspection Service, "In practically all businesses,envelope stuffing has become a highly mechanized operation usingsophisticated mass mailing techniques and equipment which eliminatesany profit potential for an individual doing this type of work-at-home.The Inspection Service knows of no work-at-home promotion that everproduces income as alleged."
