John Hancock; John Craig; DBA Stuff With Care Home Based Envelope Stuffing Scam Rip-off San Antonio Texas
I was about to invest $25.00 into this envelope stuffing home based business. Luckily for me I found this website first. Something about this company did not feel just quite right. They never mentioned a name for the company in the literature provided. I replied to an ad that was placed in the San Antonio Express-News on Feb. 23, 2003.
It seemed pretty harmless and inviting. the ad read as follows "Envelope Stuffers needed. $1380 / wkly guaranteed in writing. 210-228-4188." so I called the local number. I got a recording that talked about they are a support staff for several companies and they are looking for hard working dependable and "HONEST" workers. And be willing to work without any supervision.
I left my name and address for the information. I received three pieces of literature about "Our Company" (never any name mentioned) and lots of other hype about making all kinds of $$. Bottomline -- There is alot of negative information about this company and I am glad I read these testimonials before sending in my check. By the way, I did a little research on my own and found out that the STUFF WITH CARE assumed name is listed to a George Ignacio Fernandez who lives at 11910 Orsinger #112 San Antonio, TX 78230.
His Texas Drivers License #16357241 according to the public information given thru my local Bexar county courthouse website. I only filed this public report after reading a testimonial from another honest individual who was just trying to earn a buck!

I am a home worker for the company Stuff With Care based out of Austin, TX by these same two people.
I must say since the $25 fee was so low I did not bother checking for any such reports as these since I figured it was a small risk.
I received the confirmation which told me to send my $5 and SASE, which I did, and promptly received all of the information needed to get started.
They have kept in close contact with me with any help I have needed, and I have found them profitable. There are some slight production costs after you begin, copies of mere cents each and advertising costs can range from free to very high depending on how much work you do.
As far as why the addresses are different and you are finding peoples information for assumed names of the company, it is because along with other services the company uses home workers for recruiting and applications. It is a company based on home workers, so they use them for all positions. Each recruiter receives the payments and applications and is then supposed to respond with a confirmation and forward the application and payments to the company. If you are sending in your $25 and not receiving a response than sadly it is an employee who is giving the company a very bad name by not doing the work properly or not doing it at all.
I am not trying to minimize the damage done to those of you that have been ripped off by this, but when errors like that happen it is an employees error and not that of John Craig and Mr. Hancock.
This can be a good legitimate money making opportunity, but you definately do have to use caution do to the possibility of a bad employee.
