Catherine Rich, Byron Peterson, Home Stuffers, Summit Group Publications ripoff scam, dishonest, ripoff fraud business, San Diego, National City California
I needed some extra money so I thought this would be a good idea. I listened to their message recording and so I sent in the $35. It's been over 3 weeks and still nothing.
I do not have a phone number or anything to contact these ficticious people. They have ads all over the pennysaver. That was another reason why I thought I could trust them because it was in a trusting magazine.
Not only Home Stuffers, there are other so called businesses called Summit Group Publications in West Covina. They could be located all over the country.
I looked up Home Stuffers on the internet after all this and they have a fake email address as well.
I would love to confront these individuals while they are behind bars! This should not be legal and I don't see how they could get away with it for so long.

I was browsing thru the home stuffer complaints. The name "Byron Peterson" pops up...Here is another address that you might want. I requested information about "Home Stuffers" from an ad in the Gainesville Sun, Gainesville, FL. It has Byron Peterson as the "Hiring Director" of Home Business System P.O. Box 820902 Pembroke Pines, FL 33082-0902. The same phone, 212-946-5422, was given for further information about the company and an email address www.USMailingGroup.com I don't know what the outcome of my dealings with them will be. I can only imagine, after reading this. But be assured, whether negative or positive, I will let you guys at "rip off report" know. Thank you, Cindy

When I checked with the BBBonline and entered the #(212)615-6424 about 141 entries came up. Based one the fact that one of the home Stuffers listed is no more than 20min from my house, I peeked and found the address of one Cathy Hueston owner of the business, Home Stuffing. If you look at Additional addresses and Also Doing Business as, it is all the info you need on this branch, besides hours of operation. Keep me posted on how everything turns out.
