I received the same yellow sheet from Direct Cards INC. stating about the great envelope stuffing home business for only $46.00 (including $6.00 for shipping). As usual, I thought this offer was too good to be true. I have come across many similar scams over the years in the hopes of finding ONE legitimate home business that is easy to do and requires little or no up-front investment.

After reading this web site, I see Direct Cards INC. is the same rip-off/scam as all the others.

If anyone knows of a legitimate home business that requires no selling and can be done in your spare time for good money, please e-mail me the details. Thanks!

Start your own home business. I never had any problem.

This is directed at Joe, the original complainant. He seems somewhat serious about pursuing a business.

Don't listen to anyone who advocates stuffing envelopes. That's nonsense. Anybody can see that.

But, there is a way to make money in a manner not too far from stuffing envelopes.

Here's how you start a home business. Ask yourself, what do I know how to do?

Then, look at your community. What do they need?

Are you good with cars? No? What about washing and waxing them. Anybody can figure that out. People drop the car off and you wash and wax it. That's not hard.

How about resumes. You make resumes for job searchers. You find job listings from local employers. You hook up applicants with employers. You can even mail resumes out for applicants. There, you are stuffing envelopes.

There are a million more ideas. Do you know how I find them? The library. Books. When you wanna know how to do something, read a book written by someone who already did it.

Go to the library and get 5 books on small or home businesses. I guarantee you there are more good ideas in just one book than all the fraud work-at-home scams in the world.

When in doubt, check it out. At the library.

Let me see. I could probably stuff 1 envelope a minute. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so I can stuff 60 envelopes at $2/each. WOW - I can make $120/hour. I can make $960/day working only 8 hours a day. For a 50 week year that comes out to $240,000!! Not bad for an unskilled person stuffing envelopes. Now if I could stuff 2 envelopes a minute I could make $480,000/year. Yowie! If I could stuff 3 envelopes a minute I could make, HOLY SMOKES!!! If I could get 2 minimum wage people to do this I could make - YOWIE!! I'M RICH - STUFFING ENVELOPES.

In 3 weeks, working 10 hours a week, stuffing 3 envelopes a minute you should have made $10,800.

So, how much have you made so far Kathryn?

Concerning the mailing envelopes from home

#10UPDATE Employee

Mon, February 07, 2005

I have read through alot of these comments on the direct cards company and i am just curious as to if those who sent in their money and did not recieve anything back that it clearly states "if not printed clearly may not be able to deliver" and for those who sent money and did get their packet, did you acually go and post the flyers to see if it did work or just come on here calling it a scam? I have been doing the mailing process from home for 3 weeks now and I have recieved every paycheck promised to me from the Direct Cards Inc. As it states $2 per envelope plus re-embursment for shipping and handling.
