Eclipse 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2005 Well, around my area, they have these booths with this newspaper like thing that has employment opportunities. Of course, the ones I always manage to see are the Postal Jobs, which always say that you need to call. I am looking at it right now, and the wages are between $16.20/hr to $59/hr. Another ad I always see is this mailing stuff from home. It says that you could earn up to 750 dollar weekly from mailing their stuff from home. I might just do that on the side or something. Is that mailing thing a scam or legit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2005 You have to pay a shitload of money before you can even "get started." Most things that sound to good to be true are just that. If it were so simple to make that much money, everyone would be doing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2005 I know someone who got ripped off doing this, he bought all the stuff and then they didn't send him nearly enough stuff to mail before they stopped contacting him, basically taking his money and running. So he mailed out the stuff that he did get and put wierd pictures you'd find on the internet (you probably know the ones) in with the inserts and mailed them. I dont know what happened past that, but it I cant imagine people would be too happy if they actually did open their junk mail to find those pictures.

kkktookmybabyaway 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2005 Yeah, years ago I decided to give this a try and I got this letter saying I needed to give these people $20 and they'll send me a list of companies that need letters stuffed for them. I laughed and threw the letter away -- although they sent me several more letters in the months ahead... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
