www.usps.com is with U.S. Postal Inspectors. They have an online complaint form there. You might also want to report to www.ftc.gov which is for the Federal Trade Commission. This pyramid is nationwide. I too was ripped off by Homestuffers. I have a photo of John Craig and Robert Hanncock. I have a medical condition as well, and just wanted to make a little extra money. The Post Office and UPS will not get involved. What I was told by them was that they just send the mail, no questions asked. I was also told the U.S. Postal Inspectors can't keep track, because they are everywhere throughout the country. The number you posted is just an answering service, from out of ManHatten. Any number you might receive will be this way. I have yet to hear anyone contact a real person. I think if we resolve this at all, it will not be possible throught the Government. I think we need to consider campaigns, to get the word out, and a Class Action Lawsuit. These people will keep on, if they don't get caught. To learn more from other peaple in your situation Access: Category: Home based businesses or enter Keywords, John Craig, Home Stuffers or United Home Workers. Discuss this with your own Post Master if you can as well. Remember, if we don't take the time to fill out those forms, we will never get any closer to shutting them down. ..Yes, also file a Rip-off Report here, authorities review these Reports and Rip-off Reprot works with the authorities. The more Rip-off Reports here let consumers know they are not alone. Rip-off Reports are never deleted.

I was diagnosed with a chronic disease and needed to stay home

To whom it may concern, I myself fell victom to the home stuffers scam. I was diagnosed with a chronic disease and needed to stay home for a while to get back on my feet. The address that was given to me was Home Stuffers, #228, 4057 hwy 9, Howell, NJ 07731-3307. When I went to this address and found only a mailbox in a UPS store, and asked the girl at the front counter for help, she said that there was nothing she could tell me. As I was turning around to leave the girl behind the counter said to her co-worker under her breath, "I feel bad for these people that come in and want to know where there money is. I don;t know what to tell them." As far as I am concerned UPS should know what is coming in and out of their mailboxes. Especially if there is a scam reported. I was just hired to be manager at and office that will definalty not be using anything from UPS. There was a name next to a picture of a man. John Craig. The telephone hotline number is 1-212-760-5969. I hope that the person or people that are doing this scam are caught and properly punished. If any of this information is of any use, I am glad to help.
