You have to ask yourself, "Does this 'business' model pass the smell test". If you did it in this case, you'd have to say "nope".
" Not to mention the fact that you will also earn $5 for each envelope that you stuff. "
Isn't that a clear sign that you're being taken for a ride? Why would someone pay you $5 to do something that can be done for a fraction of a penny by a machine? It's ludicrous. What sort of envelope is so valuable that you'd pay $5 for someone to stuff it.
Seriously, that's like finding an ad that says they'll pay you $2 a piece to put the cream filling into Twinkies at your home. You'd have to ignore the fact that machines do the job for nothing and that a Twinkie is not worth $2.
Before the Internet, this type of "work at home" opportunity was advertised in the back of magazines. It was just as bogus then as it is now. You've got to give them points for longevity, though.
