I Was Scammed by Envelope Stuffing Canadians

We get the strangest email, such as this one about a week ago:

I have received my book from you so l picked stuffing envelopes.I sent two dollars to Choice 919 Centre St.NW,Suite #225 Calgary,AB T2E-2P6 I have not recived enthink. Let ME KNOW

We get the strangest email, such as this one about a week ago:

Thank You

“Let me know.” Umm…can anyone help me out with this? What exactly is the writer asking me to let him/her know? And by the way, if you haven’t already learned this on your own, let me warn you: there’s no bigger red flag than the words, “stuffing envelopes.” It’s a scam that was invented looong before the Internet. And what’s more, we have no record of this person buying our book. So I’m pretty sure that whatever he’s talking about, it isn’t our fault. I wrote and asked him for clarification:

We’re not sure what you mean. We have not ever recommended stuffing envelopes as a legitimate income producer. What is it you want us to let you know?

Today the answer came back:

Hi Joe,
The Canadian Home Job Review and Employment Directory I received, and in the directory I picked the stuffing 400 Envelopes for $800 dollars. The letter was sent to choice 919 Center St. NW, Suit #225 Calgary, AB. T2E 2P6, and the two dollars was in the envelope with my info, The money off the master card was taken, and I have not recieved the package. If you could write me back and let me know what’s going on with my package I would appreciate it very much. Thank You.

Please, PLEASE tell me you didn’t send somebody $800 (even if it is $800 Canadian) to teach you how to stuff envelopes? Or did you send them $2 and a credit card?

At any rate, I think you’ve fallen into one of the oldest scams in the book. The typical envelope stuffing scam goes something like this: The scammer takes out an ad in the local paper, or puts up a flier, or something else print-based (remember, this is pre-Internet). He tells you you can make easy money by stuffing envelopes for companies that apparently haven’t yet discovered batch mail processing equipment. He tells you the secret to this wealth can be yours for $2. Send it to Scams R Us, at a nondescript PO box. If you get anything back, it’s instructions on how to take out your own classified, put in your address, and run the scam yourself. The envelopes you’ll be stuffing are the ones containing instructions for YOUR victims on how to run the scam for themselves.

If, on the other hand, this writer lost $800, we’re in a totally different arena.

How to get real jobs
The best source we know of to get real jobs with real paychecks is our e-book. It will teach you exactly what you need to do to get a job using the Internet, without all the BS, and its instructions apply to Canadians, too. And best of all, you get to decide how much to pay. Get yours now.

I can’t believe that someone sent $800 to find out how to stuff envelopes!! OMG!! Please tell me this is not true. If so I might have an offer to make them, “Now you’ve stuffed them, Learn how to post them!! Only $1000″

01.13.08

That was my reaction, too, Mike. I don’t know if that’s the case because we haven’t heard from the original writer again.

02.12.08

I have seen this ad before. I don’t think he sent $800 to the company. You have to send $2 to get the info on how to get $800 for stuffing 400 enveloppes, $1200 for 600 enveloppes, etc.

02.15.08

Ok, I know exactly what this person is talking about… in a home job directory where Choice Mail is listed, it asks for $1 and a stamp to send the info back to you. I did this and within a month I received the requested info, you then have to send $38.95 to them, they’ll send you the materials, complete with pre-addressed and stamped envelopes, you get $2 per envelope up to 450 envelopes weekly, $65 per sale made from the envelopes you send, and your $38.95 back on your first cheque. So far it seems legit, so I sent my $38.95 away today, I’ll let you know if it works out.

02.15.08

Thanks, Kristin. I’ll be very interested in hearing how it turns out.

02.26.08

Hey kristin….i m a new immigrant in canada and am trying hard to survive so this home job grabbed my attention i was also considering the stuffing envelopes….do u think it really works out???why dont they give us a website…..is it legitimate?

03.12.08

just like all the others, I fell for it too sent the $ 38.95 and thats the last I heard. Checked on Google and its the biggest scam going now. Checked with Calgary Better bus. got no where. dont feel good about it but at least im not alone

re; Choicemail scam I hope Mary Henderson has a Heart attack like I did

03.12.08

Bond, chances are good that it’s not legit.
Good luck, Norm.

03.12.08

Ok, it took almost a month, but I finally heard back from Choice Mail. It was not as I had expected, though, they don’t send you envelopes to stuff, you have to advertise for people to send you envelopes (with the $2 in it) so you can send back the sales letter, hopefully getting them to buy some software, which you make a hefty commission on. But you have to shell out the $$$ for printing and advertising, I guess if you can get things going, you could make some nice cash… oh and after your first order they send you your deposit back. I haven’t decided yet if I want to try it….

03.12.08

hey thanks joe…..

03.30.08

hello, i am very happy that i somehow came across this website! i know exactly what it feels like to have been scammed. I ended up victim to an ad I found in my parenting magazine (go figure), ad posted: send out sase and make 15$ per envelope. send 45.00 for supplies with check or money order. wow was I stupid, I went and got a money order, sent it to this supposed company and 6 weeks later I recieved and envelope containing about 6 pages telling you how to scam people just how i had been scammed. stating posting ad’s in local newspapers and magazines,website and such, getting a p.o. box for yourself where your victims can send their money to, and then how to print out the exact same papers you have recieved and were reading on how to scam others!Thanks to that scam I decided to never fall victim again and began my long search to actually find something legit that you shouldnt have to pay for to be payed. Thanks again for starting this wonderful site!!

03.31.08

Sorry to hear about that, Brandi. Live and learn, I guess. Poke around on our site; I think you’ll find a lot of scams exposed and also some legitimate ways to make money online.

04.29.08

tell u what dont send any thing i have send my $38.95 till today still waiting for ny envelopes haha i have been scam like me single parent trying to make honest earning. its a lesson to learn

05.03.08

I sent my $38.00 to a company called “The Canadian Home Job Review and Employment Directory” I did get the book just recently and have been trying different things. I sent my loonie away to this “Choice” place in Calgary on 919 Centre Street. Haven’t heard back yet but since reading all your complaints I guess I have been scammed too. Isn’t it sad that they choose to scam and steal from unemployed and sometimes desperate people to make their money. Certainly not Robin Hoods are they? I’ll let you know it anything further transpires but I’m not looking for any breaks either.

05.22.08

I have received a letter in the mail and was thinking about trying choice mail. But instead I will call calgary police instead.

05.23.08

Oh,this is a disgrace,I’ve done the same thing. The Canadian Homemakers Review, got the book,sent my $2.00 and a self-stamped envelope and have heard nothing since!!I’m so mad at these people!!! No wonder they’re millionaires or whatever, they scam people. This should be reported to somebody that can make them pay back the money they stolefrom us. Then if your a millionaire, what chance do we have? That goes for those so-called Top Jobs they have. You want to know how mad I was? I was going to hop a plane and go to Ottawa (sister lives there) and go straight there and ask them”where the hell do you get your so money-making ideas from?” These people should be investigated.THOROUGHLY!!!!!!

05.23.08

I posted a comment on May 3rd and said I’d get back if anything transpired. Well I got an envelope yesterday from this witch and now she wants $38.75. I can’t remember what for exactly but she’s not getting it. You know we should print off all these complaints and send them to the police out there. I’m from Nova Scotia, but I think I will print off some of them and send them to her so she will know what people think of her. I thank you all for starting this blog.

06.13.08

I have received the same flyers for choice mail and Mary Henderson, they want $38.95 and supposedly only 83 positions available, nothing about sending $2.00 first, but I think this is just another variation on the over all scam, anyways I live in Calgary and I think I shall drop by the office on centre street and see what Mary is up too!!

06.13.08

That’s great, Glenn! Let us know what you find out.

06.27.08

Got Mary Henderson’s Choice Mail promo in the mail. Don’t know how I got it. I am always suspicious if there is no telephone number, fax, email, etc., to allow you to contact these companies. I have to agree with other writers here – there are companies that handles big batch mailouts for you. There must be something more to this. The software mentioned in the letter may give “legitimacy” to the “scam”. After all, you don’t want to be labelled a “pyramid” scheme anymore. I would say to use “extreme caution”. Your $38.95’s can add up very quickly. If it is a true business opportunity, I would send an inquiry letter first, and if they have the courtesy to respond to your inquiry, you may be dealing with a legit business. I don’t see this company on BBB listing in Alberta, and they are supposedly a “Canadian company”. Anyone who is anybody listed with BBB. There is a limit to your stuffing ($450/week), which averages out to about 1-1.5 hours a day for 5 days, or 6 hours of straight stuffing and licking, to earn the supposed 900 bucks. IT just looks TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. If you are a business who needs someone to stuff envelopes for you, would you mail boxes of stuff around the globe for the work to get done — at the current cost of mailing ? I don’t think so. This is a person gone wild.

If you are a business that needs help in this department, you will likely keep it close to home, and keep it real. Sorry Mary Henderson, you are just not going to get my bucks!

07.10.08

I sent a cheque to them for 38.95 and still waiting for my chance to make some money from home. If anyone knows how to contact these people please let me know. I just want to be a good parent and provide for my family. I am a disabled person and thought that this would be a chance to change my life. Well so much for that. I want to get in touch with these people and I need help finding them. Please let me know……………

07.14.08

OMG> I just fell for that scam. 6 days ago, i just sent a $40.00 money order, to pay choice mail. Dam, is this true. Cause I am canadian, and I will have this person charged for fraud, by the R.C.M.P., and if they can’t help me….. well calgary is only a 12 hr drive from here for me. The address is the same forever, and they have not been charged or caught, i do not believe it.
Dam this person should have been in jail by now.

07.26.08

The address is to a UPS store and they’re using a rented box.

919 Centre St. NW
Suite 225
Calgary, Alberta

It’s a shame so many people get scammed trying to work from home. I too sent my $38. What I should have done was come here first. Oh well, it’s only $38 and I’ll make that back.

I feel like I’ve tried everything on the internet from home and the only LEGIT way is internet marketing. There IS an upfront investment and it can normally be between $500 – $1000 more or less.

There is this program called Little Guy Network where I recently paid $200 to get into. Yeah, believe it or not though IT WORKS! But that’s not the only program that does. There’s a few more out with a little higher investment that do too. I chose this one because I wouldn’t have cared if I lost $200.

This is the only legitimate way (that I know of) that you can make money from home and I’d be more than willing to share with you how it works and show you several people in this already.

My email is littleguylive@gmail.com

08.13.08

Apparently I have just been scammed as well. My husband and I are within a week away of probably recieving some envelopes. I knew there was something wrong with this whole idea. We were looking forward to some fast cash but apparently that is not going to happen. My 38.95 went to M Henderson as well. I do however have something totally legit going on. It’s called Fortune Hi-tech Marketing. Some people will think its a scam too but it’s not. Money doesn’t come free but if you put a little time and effort into it it will pay. I’ve seen proof in it with friends that have joined, I just need to get out and do some work with it myself.

08.18.08

Hey everyone, I just want to say that I received my package from Mary Henderson. I haven’t read through it all yet, but I will take back what I said about it being a scam because she does provide some valuable information that, to me, is worth the $34.

Right now, I all I can tell you is that it has something to do with selling CD-ROMS. I will post more once I have some time to go through it all.

Hopefully everyone who paid for the package will receive it shortly. Snail mail sucks but just be patient.

Best of luck to everyone!

09.02.08

man i wish i read this before sending of my 38.95. I am anxious to see what Bill has to say.. is it working out??

09.04.08

Hey Jill, to be honest I’m not even going to try to do what Mary’s doing (Mary Henderson). But… if you’re in a network marketing business the information she hands out will be very valuable.

It’s confusing trying to learn exactly how she does her work, but it works. I’d rather focus my attention on my internet marketing business and use some of her advertising methods.

Oh and yes she rented out a UPS box. She recommends doing the same and even registering your own business name. You’ll be able to receive some good tax write offs from doing so.

I’ve turned my interest to a business called Carbon Copy Pro instead of the Little Guy Network. If anyone wants help in finding a good online business or wants more information on what’s involved I’d be happy to help.

Best wishes everyone!

09.06.08

I am still unsure if I should send my 38.95 to Mary Henderson, her information seems to be legit, but most people are being ripped off. I’m only 20, so would her package of what ever it is be worth it, is it that advanced?

09.07.08

Samantha, if most people are being ripped off, why would you even consider it? Stay away.

09.08.08

Hey Samantha, I’m 21 but that means nothing. It’s not that it’s advanced, it’s that you need to think outside the box.

Honestly I suggest you don’t get the package and hey, props to you for doing your research before making a purchase!

If you want to make money online, you should find a good network marketing company to work with. Mail order seems more complicated and you don’t have a sponsor there to support you and guide you along the way.

Add me on myspace if you even consider finding a business to join. I’ll help you out. http://www.myspace.com/billbanman

Happy hunting!

09.10.08

Wow …I am glad that I came across this …I just received the same letter in the mail to send to this “Mary Henderson” …thought it was too good to be true…I used to work in a print company so I know that there is equipment out there to do mass mailings……

09.23.08

I’m so pleased to have clicked onto this site. Thanks for the insight, comments, and exactly how it is. I’m relieved but sad. I’m not investing in this scheme but will keep my eyes on this sight. Thanks so much. Maggie

09.23.08

The guide came…with some ads in it…38.95
Has anyone been shipped a CD or a book yet ? —After I keep 60% of someones money and send the remainder to 919 Centre St. Calgary,are there really any products shipped to customers ?
They also want me to stock up with their products at bundled prices,to mail them to customers myself…they ask for lots of $ for stocking in advance. Has anyone seen a product ?

09.26.08

Hey boo. I received the same package 10 months ago, I decided it was best not to proceed after I came across this forum. How can Mary Henderson guarantee that they will send us the products? She doesn’t even have a legitimate website. For some reason my instincts are telling me “no way”. You really are just rippiong other naive consumers off too. Imagine the money you could waste for advertising alone!

However, it may be worth purchasing their Reprints Galore CD-Rom yourself first, just to see if they send it. You could also use that system to sell e-books on ebay. I have seen this done. If you have reprint rights to 800 + “How to” books, even at $5 a piece that adds up. Let me know what happens whatever you decide.

09.26.08

to everybody who got scam i am so so so sorry about that because i wonted to do the same thing to stuff envelopes myself until my old bus driver had told me to dont do it because its a scam she was saying if they ask you to send any money DON’T DO IT because its a scam

09.26.08

Seems nobody will ever get something for their money through 919 Center St. Calgary. When I found this site I couldnt believe that somehow it could be so easy to rob 38.95 or more and get away with it still….since when? have people been soaked by this . I didnt think there was such piracy so easily dealt out and done . Even feels like nothing has been done to stop it up to now.Guessing with all their profits someones paid off to keep the business drawing in 38.95 or more each envelope.

09.26.08

In Canada there must be thousands who lost….but in the states and wherevertheheck else the money coming in to some address has to be enormous ,maybe in the millions.

10.02.08

im so glad i pulled this up. i actually sent my loonie in 2 days ago and now i really regret it. but if i ever do get a “package back fropm her, i now know not to send anything in. thanks a lot pplz. im a mom on maternity leave and i really dont want to leave my kid in daycare so i was trying to see if i could earn an income from home. who was i kidding? i guess working the 9-5 is better than being scammed!

10.02.08

to whoever has recieved the Canadian Home job Review guide,

the stuffing envelopes thing i realize is a scam but what about the classic jewellery? is the whole guide a scam??

10.02.08

hi!
i’m a new permanent resident immigrant in Canada. I’ve been here for four months and I haven’t got a job yet. I’m fluent in English, Spanish, and I know French. Before coming people said for sure I’ll get a job easily. So I came with my four years old daughter and I have spent more than the half of money I brought with me just surviving in toronto which is a very expensive city. I thought that the envelopes business was true. I paid for the Canadian home job Directory 29 first. then I sent the 2 dollars and Mary H. sent me the letter abouth how it works and I sent the 38 dollars cash. i haven’t received anything yet and I think I will receive something but not what I was expecting for. She clearly said I did’t have to spend my money on envelopes or stamps. I feel very dissapointed because I came from Colombia, I quit my job there which was really good to come to a country of opportunities and a country where honesty is first. I think I’m going back home. no job, extreme cold weather and now this! It’s so sad.

10.08.08

I have recieved the same letter i already sent my money out $38.95 I live in Calgary and when i recieve all the information that mary sends me I will go to the police with all the information that i have gathered from this site and other ones. And try to put a stop to this BS.

10.13.08

hi i am glad that i went on this site because i was about to send the 38.95 dollars to mary henderson which i guess i would have regreted also i was wondering about the classic jewellery letter that i received did any one else receive that kind of letter. so who is telling the truth i would really like to have a job at home and stay with my kids any ideas from anyone i would really appreciat it. i am so tired of working in a daycare it is very tiring help please. also the classic jewellery is from woodbridge ontario.

10.14.08

I know how frustrating it can be to find honest work at home opportunities. That is why I’m inviting everyone here to my YouTube channel to follow me in the 90 Day MLM Challenge.

You can all learn from my experiences. I’m sharing everything I’m learning on how to become a success story.

If you’re one of that 3% who truly wants to build a business from home than you’ve found the person who can take you there.

I should of read this first but I didn’t and now I feel like a fool. I’m doing my homework after the fact.

Sent in the Money. Haven’t heard anything yet.
Did anyone Get there money back, because I want my $38.95 back.
If not I’m going to file a complaint against Mary Henderson.

Money lasts temporarily but the conscience of Mary Henderson will bother her for the rest of Her Life.

11.14.08

I to bought the book for Canadian Homeworker Review and spent 40.00$ on it, I did get the book but am feeling like i have just wasted my money and am never going to wrap myself up in this. I have a severly disabled child and was hopeing to make some extra cash as I cannot leave home for work. Oh well i’m guessing that most of us will never get ahead.

11.17.08

Wow…I wish I read everything here before I sent in my money!! I just sent in my cheque this week and I called my bank to see if I could put a stop on it. It costs ten dollars to do, and it isn’t a guarantee so it could end up costing my 10 more bucks!! But I don’t even care, cause if there is a chance that this person won’t be able to cash it…I’m taking it!! I just wish I was there to see their face when the teller says it can’t go through….so warning for others….DON’T BELIEVE IT!!!! And DON’T SEND MONEY!!!!

11.23.08

Am I the only person on here who doesn’t think Mary Henderson is a scam artist? I got my book and I think the information shared is worth the measly $40. Although, I don’t recommend anyone purchasing just it to scratch an itch. It’s probably not going to be what you thought it to be.

I’m going to do a video review on her product and post it on YouTube. Get notified of these followup reply’s. Check that little box under the submit button when you’re typing a message. I’m going to be your new best friend once this is done. I promise!

01.07.09

Thanks, I too feel like i’ve been scammed by MH, so I look forward to your comments on this process.

01.08.09

I still haven’t made that video that I promised. Sorry, I’ll try to get that done soon. When I do I’ll be posting it on my YouTube channel: http://youtube.com/billybanman

When I received my book it was too complicated for me at the time and I had other things on my plate as well. But I really want to help you guys out and at least let you know what it’s all about…

Let me read the book again and I’ll try to make a video of it or post a review on my blog, or something. Contact me if you’d be interested in this happening.

We all just wanted to work from home and something like this shouldn’t stop us from getting what we deserve.

I’ll do the review if I see enough people wanting me to do it.

Thanks, and I wish you guys all the best. Talk to you later!

I just got this letter in the mail five minutes ago, and knew it was a scam, because I have been scammed before(Homemakers Review). I just hate how you read the letter and you think “Oh, this would be great, it would be easy blablabla” even though I knew it was a scam, I thought “I wish” haha. I investigated anyways, and sure enough, pages and pages of complaints.

Pretty low of these people, I can agree on that one.

02.26.09

hello people I am in the same bost as you I sent 38.95 to choice and I have not as yet recieve the package here in brampton Ontario I hope we all can do something about this I had foiund this job in the Canadian home Job review his name is NathanWison the vice president at 375 Rideau street suite 916 Ottawa kinig7 I believe I have been also scamed like the rest of you here please reply someone to me at my email address let see what we can do here Hugh Crouse

03.01.09

The stuffing envelopes thing i realize is a scam but what about the classic jewellery, national amateur photo group or is the whole guide a scam??
You would think I learn my lesson after charging my credit card
for more that $700 on all kinds of programs, newer made a dime from it. I just like to answer to Rebcca not all of us have ritch husband so we can aford to stay home. I am 57y old was layed-off last year after 25+ years in new homes advertising agency. Who is going to hire me now. I cant even find work to clean office ( i tried that too )so you see for some of us working from home is the last chance. It is sad that hard working people are geting scam.

I recieved my canaduian home worker package and decided to look on the net for info on that stuffing envelopes company and seen all these complaints. what i don’t understand is why is this company listed in the home worker package if it’s not legit..
Thought this book was suppose to help find companys to work from home for you. Makes no sense?????

03.26.09

Make your own jewelry, stuff your own envelopes- sell your own products= home based business.

Hello…….I am an immigrant here to Canada and as many others I’m sure until I could find a job I thought I would order the The Canadian Home Job Review and Employment Directory. So far I have had no luck..I was going to do the Classic Jewellery thing decided with them asking for $79.90($47 one time sign up + $2.95 s/h) I wanted to do a search. Didn’t get any hits on the company so went to mapquest.ca and did a search for directions using their address. There is an address but that company doesn’t come up what-so-ever. Also just to share some further information about that guide I sent out letters with S.A.S.E to 27 companies in that guide most of which came back stamped return to sender. So all in all I think I wasted my money on this guide,envelopes, stamps, paper and time for nothing. I wouldn’t recommend this guide or any company in this guide to anyone! Who knows how much money you would spend if there actually is something legit in there.

I purchased my canadian homeworker business directory, and I am very interested in stuffing envelopes. I have to send $1 for the package. Is this a scam?

The problem is not that you were scammed by “Choice” or the “Host Jewellery” or any of the other options in the Canadian Home Job Review booklet. The problem is that this “CANADIAN HOME JOB REVIEW” is the scammer…selling a booklet full of scams. They need to be reported…employment directory…my @ss.

That’s exactly right.

Canadian Home Job Review is the problem.

As everyone else on here, I also ordered the Can. At Home Job Income booklet. I already have a current part time job, looking for a full or part time job in my current field of stuidy. I just wanted to do a little something extra to make extra cash to pay of some debt. Thought this would be a great idea!! WRONG! The booklet is just FILLED with scams (as someone else has said – they are the ones to blam mostly). I think once you have ordered that book – your name is sent out to these scamers – and they sent you their letter on how to get you to work for them.. ie – Mary Henderson, Choice Mail.
When I received her letter, I read it over througuly, thinking everything over – good or BAD! I thought this might be a scam, but my boyfriend said “Hey, you put $20 in, Ill put $20 in – whats to loose.. $20 thats all! Lets give it a try”. So we did.
I believe it took about 3ish weeks till my ‘Kit’ came. (all the time waiting – thinking I got sucked into the scam). Its litterally another booklet going on and on and on about “be your own boss”.. “makes lots of money”.. “work your own scheule” – but its litterally telling you ways to scam other people and THATS how you make your money.

So if you have been sent this letter asking for the $38 – and you are thinking about doing it DONT!!!!!! You WILL NOT be sent envelopes to be stuffed.

What really gets me – is that I am a Christian – and in this Kit that “Mary” sends you is this smaller booklet about 4 pages long going on about God and how you need to trust in him, believe in him, think about your dreams and goals, they will get you further in life if you think positive rather then negative, blah blah blah! This person is GOING TO HELL! Scam inocent ppl, then asking YOU to scam others andthen bringing GOD into this filth. Its desgusting!

Again..

DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!
DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!
DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!
DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!
