Is Working From Home Stuffing Envelopes Legit? Here’s How it Works….

You've seen the ads "work from home and make hundreds of dollars a day!" But is working from home stuffing envelopes legit? Here's how it REALLY works.

For some reason I get a real kick out of investigating work from home jobs. Well, really curiosity just kills me.

I know better than to believe an ad that says “Make hundreds of dollars a day in mere minutes placing ads on the internet.” I know it’s a scam. But I just want to know how the scam works! (And after digging up the dirt on the posting ad companies someone actually left me a comment talking about how legitimate these companies really were. Give me a break.)

The whole posting ads thing made me think of the “Make Thousands of Dollars a Month Stuffing Envelopes from Home.”

My best friend in high school and her boyfriend actually tried this! They told me about seeing an ad in the classifieds sections and paying money to get some kind of “kit” to stuff envelopes at home. Forget getting a real job, they were going to make big bucks stuffing envelopes while watching TV. Even as a 17 year old I thought it was a scam.

After they got whatever they ordered I never heard another word about it. They were probably just too embarrassed to tell our group of friends that they got ripped off, and I never asked.

Now eleven years later I still see these same ads in the classifieds section of the paper.  I wanted to see how this actually plays out.

Curiosity killed the cat. Here’s how the stuffing envelopes from home thing actually works.

Stuffing Envelopes from Home – EXACTLY How it Works

A little bit of Googling showed me exactly how the stuffing envelope from home scam worked. It’s very similar to the posting ads scams – a pyramid scheme.

I was actually going to sign up with one so I could show you exactly what you got – but I didn’t want to throw away more than $10 so, sorry guys. The fees for these programs range between $30-$70 dollars.

And this is what you get and how it works:

  • Sign up with a company to “stuff envelopes from home” and pay the start-up fee.
  • You will then get a flyer in the mail that you are supposed to copy and mail to other people.
  • This flyer is telling people how they can make money stuffing envelopes at home.
  • If you’re lucky a few people will fall for the scam in hopes of easy money. If they sign up for the “envelope stuffing” program and pay the insane fee of $30 you get small commission (maybe $5) for their sign up.

So as you can see you aren’t really being paid to stuff envelopes. Instead you get a commission to trick other people into signing up to stuff envelopes!

There is no product. You’re not promoting a business. All you’re doing is scamming other people into signing up for a scam.

Let’s Be Smart

You know that if it’s too good to be true, it’s too good to be true.

Let’s logically think about this for a minute. If you could make hundreds of dollars a day by stuffing envelopes wouldn’t everyone be doing it? And why in the heck would companies pay you to do this when they can instead use technology to do it for them at a much faster pace for a much, much lower price?

paper folding machie

This machine folds 9,000 pieces of paper per HOUR making everything envelope ready. It’s only a thousand bucks (there are cheaper ones, too!) Nobody is going to pay you to do something that a machine can do much more efficiently!

There are no skills required (other than licking an envelope), no degree required, no specialized knowledge, and no hard work. There’s even a stuffing envelopes scam warning on the FTC website.

You can make money online. You don’t need a degree you just need the willingness to learn and work hard. Don’t look for the easy way out – it doesn’t exist!

    They have machines that fold paper!? I feel completely cheated. I spent five years working in the purchasing department of an engineering company and a big part of my job was to fold paper and stuff said paper into envelopes. Granted, this was back when minimum wage was only $5.15 and I was a college kid.

    It really is sad to see SO many people fall for scams. Nothing in life comes easy, because as you pointed out, if it was easy everybody would be doing it. I refuse to work for anything that requires me to shell out money upfront (apart of the department of education). I even avoid Avon, Origami Owl, 31 Bags, etc. because you have to shell out money for their “start up kit.”

    • Alexa says

      December 10, 2014 at 8:04 pm

      I didn’t know Avon and Origami Owl required you to buy a startup kit. I know Mary Kay does. I had a family member who bought a ton of Mary Kay to get started selling and then ended up getting stuck with it all. I don’t sign up for anything that requires me to pay upfront costs either.

      • Camille says

        December 14, 2015 at 12:43 pm

        I have done AVON for over 10 years. The Startup kit is only $15 which comes with more than I bought for $10. You buy as many or as little catalogs as you wish to start. You are not required by AVON to buy products. They have been in business for over 100 years. I think that speaks for itself.

        • Linda McClure says

          January 27, 2017 at 9:51 am

          I agree. I have sold Avon as well and when I signed up I got lucky, the rep was too busy to sell Avon anymore so I got my books free from her. I spend a lot on their products though. But thinking about going back to it. Fun stuff.

            I don’t think it is right that companies ask for a fee to stuff envelopes from home. maryrose

          • christina says

            July 25, 2018 at 1:01 pm

            Linda I sell avon now and it’s 10 to sign up the stuff you get in your kit is worth over 300 dollars

        • Traci Kieffer says

          February 19, 2017 at 9:11 pm

          Hi, Traci here; I used to sell Avon. I would get stuck with stuff cause they didn’t have any money when I would deliver.

          • Deborah Harrison says

            March 6, 2018 at 9:55 pm

            I sold Avon for a few months actually two different times. My problem was that I was my own best customer! I loved the stuff but you don’t make money unless other people spend money, and the BIG bucks and discounts are directly tied to how many other people you get to sign up, and how many they get to sign up, and so on….which they don’t tell you up front, or until much later after lots of frustration from going broke. (I learned this the SECOND attempt at Avon! And not right away!)

          • Donna Follin says

            September 16, 2019 at 12:13 pm

            Then return it!

          December 24, 2018 at 2:40 pm

          I thought you just said the start up kit was $15,now I am confused.Do They Require You To Buy A Start Up Kit Or Not?I mean,we all know its a legit business.Flea Markets are real as well,but I dont choose to buy alot of the good they sell and set up a booth.

          • PATRICIA LACKEY says

            February 11, 2019 at 12:47 am

            i use to sell avon and yes u haveee to buy the kit in order to sell it and make the money, daaaaa how else would u make money from avon and mary kay if u didnt have a kit, daaaaaaaaa …

        • Donna Follin says

          September 16, 2019 at 12:11 pm

          No Avon is not a scam, the startup fee is for a kit that contains merchandise that is worth more than that I have been with Avon for less than 2 years and have made the start up fee many times over also.

        • Deirdre Briggs says

          November 10, 2019 at 7:23 am

          In addition, Mary Kay is also NOT a scam. It’s a BUSINESS opportunity for ENTREPRENEURSHIP. Being said, every business has a start up coat, every business has business expenses etc. I’m willing to bet My Mary Kay party sales from this Saturday the young lady who was stuck with so much product, was attempting to sell and not make connections first. Which we do not do at Mary Kay. My National Sales Director is a millionaire, driving a pink Cadillac and working Mary Kay. I’m terribly sorry they had that experience.

      • Michael says

        May 30, 2018 at 4:45 am

        My ex-wife signed up for Avon. What a waste of money that was. We ended up with a basement full of that crap. Yuck!

        • Donna Follin says

          September 16, 2019 at 12:14 pm

          Then that means your ex kept buying stuff and putting it in the basement. That was her fault!

      • anonymous says

        December 3, 2018 at 11:16 am

        Yeah… and if you’re lucky… You’ll get someone honest that signs you up. Unfortunately for me… the person that signed me up, not only did not turn in my money for my startup kit. But she also took off with ALL the money from EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY ORDERS…. Now I’m out hundreds because of ONE dishonest person… Always ask questions! and if it seems fishy, don’t do it… Granted I was 19 at the time. but it screwed up my credit badly. Be aware….

        • PATRICIA LACKEY says

          February 11, 2019 at 12:49 am

            I sell Avon and I have fun selling it but, I only sell to the people in my building or maybe some people that don’t live here.

        • Donna Follin says

          September 16, 2019 at 12:17 pm

          What did you give her the money for? You send it to Avon yourself!

        Hi. I am totally blind I can’t work a real job due to health issues and I don’t have much transportation so was wondering if you could help me or tell me a parttime job I could do from my home? I love to work with my hands the stuffing envelope thing sounded awesome till I read your article then I was like no way! I can use a computer but just don’t know how to find a job online for me to do that would be blind user friendly where my screen reader Jaws wouldn’t have problems reading. I’d really love to make some extra money I’m on my own and really never had to be I have a house payment that’s half my social security income so if I had a little extra money, I could save up for emergencies or even fun stuff. Please if you can email me. Thank you and God bless!

      Actually you sometimes can make money stuffing envelopes at home from some local Direct Mail companies. I was a direct mail (bulk mail) department manager who had a a friend and her husband stuff envelopes at home once a month when we did one of our bigggest monthly mailings. We were owned by a small printing company that could not afford the high volume equipment needed. We didntw have the high volume business to justify the cost. Also one customer requested we stuff them with 2 of the inserts placed within the folded letter of introduction. I called several mail equipment providers and was informed that no one makes an inserter that can place more than 1 piece within the folded letter. (such as placing an invoice wihin the folded letter).
      Equipment doesn’t always work perfectly either. Paper has a tendency to build up static electricity and stick together so that collating machines either pick up more than 1 sheet at a time or shut down when they detect 2. Hand collating resolves this problem. We had a mailing for a local chamber of commerce that required sometime 10 or more different sizes of advertisements inserted into a #14 preprinted envelopes which could become very difficult to do on an inserter. We would send that job to a local service that provided employment to disabled and special needs people. We paid 5 cents per stuffed and sealed mail piece.
      I agree that the majority of what you find online is a scam however I suggest contacting a local commercial printer and/or direct (bulk) mail company about hand inserting if interested.

          I’m unable to drive at times. Due to panic and anxiety attacks and also suffer from ptsd. Can do things from home but can’t get out. So I’m in need of an income but can’t always get to a job. For me at times it’s overwhelming to consider leaving my home.

            dear marchele; sounds like u may not be taking the right meds, but u should b practicing going .outside, it will only make ur anxiety worse if u dont, and the same with the driving, just a little each day will help, u need to help urself.. the envelope thing is a scam, u may lose money and have nothing to show for it..plus it may cause carpal tunnel in ur hands also and thats not good either, my advice, find something else on line to work at home. and do ur research to find if its legit or not……

      Those ads have been in nationwide classifieds since at least the early 90’s. nationwideadvertising dot com can send your ad out into millions of publications like thrifty nickle and college papers for a few hundred bucks. I’m just pointing out the obvious; a horse doesn’t live in the desert if it doesn’t have water holes. Additionally, she wouldn’t last long if she can’t smell the water. The point is, the ad wouldn’t still be in circulation if somebody isn’t making money from it. You can call it a scam all day long, because sure, somebody’s out there giving away their hard earned money. But, that also means its working, because somebody’s also out there counting that money. You can write a blog post and label it a scam or you can go be the one counting that money. I’d get down off that high horse and follow it to the water hole. Alas, there be doers an thar be do school n’ters haha. Like Momma used to say, “Can’t never could, and Won’t never would.” You say that if you work hard online you can learn to make money online. I’d say that’s true of any business. Your high minded marketing principles for the internet aren’t the principal domain of online domains. The ideals of online marketing of blogs like this very one comes from the veritable plethora of old school marketing methodology and ideological principles. In other words, don’t knock the old classifieds. Sure there’s not as many people reading them, but there’s also a lot less modern business competition. Some people find water in the desert, others just look at the desert and shake their heads, “Oh that crazy Noah.” *dramatically drops the mike and hops down from his soapbox*

        Okay……………not saying that nobody makes money off of it but that it’s a PYRAMID SCHEME. People are lead to believe that they are stuffing envelopes for some legit biz and getting paid for it. In actuality they are sending someone money so that person can send them a paper telling them to ask other people for money so they can send them a paper telling them to ask the next person for money.

        So can somebody make money off it? Yes – but 99% will lose money, not make money. Is it misleading? Absolutely.

        If you’ve reached out to a company and they can’t find your account number I would call your bank and tell them to put a stop-payment on it. Just take your bank statement in the bank and show them where the money has been withdrawn and tell them to block that company from withdrawing more money.

    I always thought it was a scam. I never bothered to see how it works by am glad to know now. It kind ft reminds me of those chain letters where you place a self addressed envalope along with the letter and mail it off. Then sending $1.00 to each of the top 5 people on the list. This chain letter promised you would make a ton of money doing this. I never bothered with that either.

    I look at it as the old school version of “Make $$$$ a day just by checking your email!” type scams. Well You can’t really say scam can you. Since There is actually a chance of making money even though it is kind of shady/dodgy. I guess a better term would be pyramid scheme! It reminds me of the new (with a old concept) TSU network. Getting paid for inviting people and liking random post and feeling pushed to create content.

    This post reminded me of my childhood. It might be a scam today, but back when I was a kid in the late 80’s early 90’s, my family actually did receive money for doing these type of work (stuffing envelopes, packing candy into plastic tubes, pencils, telephone shoes, tiny plastic dinosaur toys, etc). According to my mom, we didn’t pay any fees instead we got paid according to how many boxes/tubes we were able to pack up. Some guy would come to our house with all the supplies, show us how to pack, leave come back weeks later and take the completed boxes and left over supplies, and we would get paid. But then work started to dry up as technology started to replace people. According to mom, these type of work no longer exist.

    • Alexa says

      December 10, 2014 at 8:03 pm

      I can see it being legit in the 80’s or early 90’s. And that might be why so many people think it’s legit and sign up thinking that they’re stuffing envelopes for an actual company rather than a pyramid scheme. It’s definitely very misleading!

It is not a job it is more like a business. In starting any business you have to invest money there is no way around it and to be able to make it work you have to work hard at it. You will not get rich from it but you can make some money at it depending on if you have good people skills and you have to have a good clientele. These business’ are legitimate they have been around for a long time you can google them nd go from there.

    This is NOT a multi-level marketing thing, it is a Pyramid Scheme (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid_scheme) or a Ponzi Scheme (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponzi_scheme) and they are illegal.

    Multi-level marketing is a legitimate industry, however many multilevel marketing companies create a “KILLER” compensation plan and then have to look around (really hard!!) to find a product they can run through it so it won’t technically be a Ponzi or pyramid scheme.

    If you are looking at a Multi-Level Marketing Company (MLM) be sure to do your research:

    1- Does it have a product that you would buy at the price they are asking even if they didn’t have a business opportunity attached to it? Does it work? Does it resonate with you? Are you excited about it? Would you share it and recommend it to others even if there was no way for you to get paid for doing it?

    2- Going along with number 1, What is the retention rate for customers? Many multi level marketing companies get excited when they have between 13-20% retention. A good company that has a winning product will have a 65-70% retention rate. That means for every 100 people that purchase the product, 65-70 of them are still buying at least every quarter a year later. If your product is not that good, you will struggle to effectively make money. Think about it. If you worked hard this year sell your product to 100 people and only 13 of them are still purchasing the product a year later, you have a major uphill climb to make up that income!! So much better to have 65-70 of them purchasing every quarter- that builds solid foundational residual income that will last as long as the product is awesome.

    3- Research the Founders. Have they previously been shut down by the FTC? There may be a pattern here, and your hard work and reputation could be compromised if you proceed with that company.

    4 More on the founders: What is the tone of the founders? Are they all about the money? Is there charity just an arm? Or are they sincerely interested in making the world a better place? Be sure their objectives resonate with yours. If you are a charitable person who sees problems in the world and wants to do something about it, you might be turned off by founders who are buying up islands and always talking about the money. If YOU are turned off by that, chances are the people who are ready to listen to you will be turned off by it too. Better to align with a company whose founders share your same values, and whose reports on what they are doing make you feel proud to be a part of it.

    5- What does the compensation plan look like? How many people are breaking new ranks each year? What are the average earnings of each rank? How long have they been in business? Is their trajectory sustainable?

    6- What are the financials of the company? Are they a debt free company? If they are carrying debt, do they have something (like a facility) to show for it? How long are they carrying the note? If they are privately held you cannot look this up, but if they are making good and sound financial decisions, they will be announcing that to you because they know that you want to know. If they are publicly held, they are owned by the shareholders, and therefore are not in control of their company, including product, compensation plan, and etc. and this could be a problem long term because the nature of a publicly held company is that the company must continue to work for a profit because it is a publicly held company. They have to keep growing their stock price in order to stay out of trouble with the SEC.

    If the company you are looking at passes your research, you have found a wonderful way to make money from home (not all from home! You will likely have to meet with people to teach classes, and give demonstrations at some point!) that can bless your family and give you freedom of choice in your life. If you are passionate about the product, that will be a blessing to you as well. It takes time to succeed in Network Marketing, but if you have a good product and are willing to look for places to share, anyone can do it. I personally know a woman who was living in a women’s shelter with her 2 children when she started with a Multi Level Marketing company. She had been given a sample of the product and found that it made a profound difference in her mood and levels of anxious feelings she was experiencing. Because of this experience, she wanted to buy more of the product, and because she wanted to buy it, she saw a market for it as well. She knew there were others who struggled with mood and anxious feelings, and she wanted to help. Since she was hiding from her ex and living in a shelter, she didn’t have a network to reach out to. So she created a network by going to the local YMCA and asking if she could set up a table and offer some free classes. They allowed her to do that and in a relatively short amount of time, her financial life changed significantly. She now travels around the world teaching about her product and continues to bless others with the product AND the business opportunity.

    There are some good companies out there, but they are few and far between, so PLEASE do your research.

      For MLM, they way I would suggest people look at it, is the MLM part of the business the main focus? Or are the products?

      If the company is pushing the MLM part of the business, which is how Amway and Vector Marketing work, then it’s bad news.

      I think Mary Kay and Avon are more focused on their products, and less on the MLM side.

      I could be wrong, though. It’s been known to happen.

    It is mind boggling how many people on this thread, after being presented with evidence as to envelope stuffing being a scam, then proceed to say they are interested in doing it. Absolutely blows my mind!!! No wonder scammers continue to make millions a year defrauding job-seekers!

    The envelope stuffing scam started sometime during the depression in the 1920’s. With the dawn of the internet, it really took off, with the U.S. Postal Service identifying it as the #1 scam. The U.S. Postal Service has stated they do not know of anyone who paid into an envelope stuffing scheme to ever make any money. The only person making any money are the scammer themselves!

    The FTC, BBB and various state Attorney General Offices work hard each year to shut down envelope stuffing scams! The state of New Jersey and FTC shut down Lord Preston and Maxwell Gates Enterprises in 2013, after they had scammed 7 million dollars from tens of thousands of envelope stuffing job seekers. November 2015 the FTC shut down Mason Grace / MG Enterprises for the exact same thing. Tens of thousands of people were scammed for millions. All were people looking to work from home. Most were the elderly, the disabled, single moms, college students and others who could NOT afford to the lose the $30-$399 they sent in to sign up for various program levels. All of the victims sent in their payment “to show they were serious” about the job. Most did not receive anything back. Those that did received flyers to be mailed to others around the U.S. to recruit them into doing the exact thing. In other words, to keep the scam cycle going. Those that did send out the flyers paid for the postage out of their own pocket with the promise they would be reimbursed. They never were, so they lost $ yet again to the scam.

    People, be smart. NO ONE is going to pay you to sit on your backside and put pieces of folded paper into envelopes. That doesn’t even make any sense! If a company has mass mailings, they are going to buy an envelope stuffing machine for a few hundred dollars that can fold, stuff, address and put postage on the envelopes at a rate of thousands per hour. They are going to do this and SAVE money on postage by getting a bulk mail discount. If a company has seasonal needs for mass envelope stuffing, they are going to either use a local business like Kinkos to do the job OR, they are going to call up a staffing agency and have a temps sent over for minimum wage.

    Don’t be fooled by a “money back guarantee”. Just how valid do you think a promise to return your money is going to be, when you are dealing with a scam artist?

    Go to yahoo or google and do a search on envelope stuffing scam. READ READ READ! Educate yourself. While you are at, do a search on common internet scams so that you can learn to identify all the other common types of scams going on. Finally, NEVER pay for a job.

      This envelope stuffing scam seems even worse than your normal pyramid scheme.

      No one ever gets paid. At least with a pyramid scheme, people get paid until it collapses.

    Oh my God. I cannot believe that there are so many stupid and lazy people out there. Look at how many fools just replied to your article with “I’m interested,” or, “how do I sign up to stuff envelopes from home?” Etc.
    Seriously folks? You are too flipping lazy to actually read Alexa’s article? You fools aren’t intelligent enough to make minimum wage and even if there were a legitimate envelope stuffing job, WHICH THERE ISN’T, you idiots wouldn’t have the brain power to do that anyway.
    Alexa, thank you for clearing up the info on this SCAM. Unfortunately, it looks like there’s a ton of gullible idiots who will continue to get ripped off because they were too lazy to read your informative article.
    They actually deserve to lose their money.
    Hell, I feel like scamming them myself. I could make a fortune just off the idiots who have already replied to this one article.
    Each of you brainless fools just send me $100 and I will send you a hand written letter explaining precisely why you are poor and will always be poor. I should be a millionaire in a week. Hahaha.

    Great post. I’m a bit similar to you in that I love deep diving into different work from home / make money online opportunities to figure out how they work. I’ve run into a fair share of scams but luckily never got roped into an envelope stuffing one, even with it being one of the most common. It almost sounds like a weird sort of pyramid scheme the way you describe it.

    It’s unfortunate that so many people (who are in desperate need of money most times) get pulled into these sorts of things. There are a lot of legitimate ways to earn online but scams like this definitely make it harder to spot the real opportunities from the fake ones.
