Yes
Many of these home working packages are. They generally work on one of two principles.
Firstly - you have to pay a fee - usually for materials which is extortionate -then you will find that none of the goods that you sell are considred good enough and you wll not get payed.
The second way is that the amount of work that you have to do to get payed is ridiculous and works out at a very poor rate per hour when you find out how long the work takes to do.
Noone makes a mint stuffing envelopes when a legit company can pay someone the minimum wage to do it!

Yes, there are automated machines that do this for companies, and they are not even that expensive. Usually when you send the envelopes back to the company, they will claim that they were stuffed improperly, etc. and will not pay you for them.

The only thing getting stuffed here are the pockets of the people asking for the sign-up fee...ignore the ads.

Of course it is to make it worth the companys while you'd have to stuff about 1,000,00,000 envelopes every week with deductions if you don't reach that lofty goal!

yes - don't bother with it
you send them $$ and they send you how to get people to send you money they same way you sent them. They tell you to put ads in newspapers and the money you make is from people asking you how to do the business.

Always remember this age old axiom If it sounds to good to be true it more than likely, almost always, is.
