Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] making money from home (?)

it was a new one on me.  I'm sure there are hundreds more old ones i haven't seen as well.  I'm pretty glad what i got was only a 46$ education and hopefully i spared everyone here the necessity of buying that same education.  i have also bought the midway-at-the-fair, the $3 gold necklace from a little kid in Tijuana, keep this 2 dollar bill it will be worth something one day, and oil options educations.  spare yourselves. (although options ARE looking pretty good again)   Dave

unemployed and decided I still needed a source of income. After
carefully sifting through hundreds of emails offering unlimited income
potential, I settled on one offering 2 dollars for each envelope I
stuffed. Sounded pretty simple. I sent in my 46$ for 200 envelopes

sheets of poster looking pages with the following:

(the bottom would have ten tear off strips with my address on them) as
these requests came in (I might need to rent a po box for all the mail)
I was to stuff another included offer into the sase describing how the
sender could request more info – a HOME WORKERS DIRECTORY - on doing
assembly work, sewing, or crafts from home for only $29.00 – a special
markdown from the regular $39.00, and send these envelopes in a big
bundle to MAILER PROFITS INC. They would then send me 2$ for each sase
enclosed.
