envelope stuffing
Preparing mass mailings
Envelope stuffing is the work of inserting materials into envelopes for bulk mailings—folding letters, adding inserts, sealing, and addressing.
The term often appears in work-from-home scams that promise easy money for simple assembly work: I fell for an envelope stuffing scheme and lost my deposit.
Legitimate mass mailings are typically handled by machines or professional mailing services.
