I am on of the victims of the envolope stuffing scam and this is my story. Two weeks ago I saw an ad wile I was searching for a job in the newspappers, and it said stuff envolopes make $1380 weekly guaranteed, $225 hiring bonus, guaranteed in writing.
So I decided to give them a call, but I should have been suspicious when they never answered and the answering machine always came on instead of them. Anyway when the answering machine came on they wanted to know my name, phone number, street address and zip code and once they had that imformation they would mail imformation to me. Well the imformation did come and an application came to.
The application had all the imfo and the cost of the program on it which was $25. They said that it was just a deposit and it would be returned trippled with my first pay check guaranteed in writing. So then I sent in the application with a $25 money order thinking that everything was going to go right because they had there written sinatures on the application.
The next day they sent me the same application. I thought well maybe they just made a mistake so I didn't pay that any mine. Two days later they sent me a letter in the mail telling me that in order to start working for them they would have to first train me and the training would cost a dollor a session and there were five sessions.
Thats when I said to myself I just sent those people a $25 deposit and they never mensioned any training. I mean why would you have to train someone how to stuff envolopes, any fool could do that. Then it stated that I would have to use self address stamped envolopes and $1 in cash with each training shipment and as I was I said before there were 5.
It also said that this small expence would be reimbursed to me tripple. It said You will get $4.50 for each of the five shipments for a total of $22.50 we will rush you through this breif training process so you can get to work as soon as possible. Then at the bottom of the form it said to mark date T&O was mailed in on your calander and write the Training and Aftercare Center if no respose within 14 days.
Do not just sit and wait. After that I was not able to get in contact with them at all and I just looked them up to day and found out that it was a fraud. I feel very stupid but I was in the need of money so I tried to see if this program really would work. "Thats what happened"
