Work from Home - Scam?

I got a letter in the mail the other day about a work from home 'guaranteeing you make $300/week'. it's stuffing and sending out envelopes. i looked it up on BBB andit had 2 complaints in 3 yrs and were reconciled. I think the company is "Direct Press". They pay you $3 for every envelope you stuff and send back to them.

ANyone heard of it? Sounds too good to be true ... and usually they are, right?!

Does it ask you to send in money to them before you start?

Re: Work from Home - Scam?

I agree, it could be bogus. What company do you know that asks you for $$$ for startup fees?
