I JUST JOINED ON THE 15TH SO I AM NOT SURE ABOUT THAT. SO FAR I HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANY MAIL AT ALL FROM ANYTHING RELATED TO THESE SITES. BUT FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, THERE IS ONE SITE THAT SENDS YOU MONEY FOR DOING SURVEYS SO YOU MIGHT GET "WANTED" MAIL

I've never gotten any unwanted mail from anywhere and I always put my real address on everything.

Heh - I think I've gotten exactly ONE piece of standard mail due to my activities at FusionCash.  It was a survey from Consumer Opinion Institute (don't think the offer is available anymore) and a $5 bill fell out when I opened it!  My first thought was "No freaking way - can't be real.... can't be real...." and I was actually so skeptical I looked really closely for some kind of "voucher clause" or "not legal tender" print.  Happily, I never found one!

Now THAT's the kind of "junk mail" I can handle!

I get a ton of junk e-mail but I havent gotten anything in the mail except blind study surveys (products sent to try that I sighed up for) and a few surveys that included $5.  I just ignore the emails.

Throw them away or shred them?

Since i have been this fc, i have had no junk mail at all. If you don`t ask for info, you usually don`t get anything in the mail, unless you ask for it.

 :(  Unfortunetely, there are marketing companies that sell your name, address and like without your consent. Have you ever received a letter in the mail with a sticker printing your name and address, saying as seen in the Oprah Winfrey Show...send $1.00 to the following five persons? And you can buy 300 or 500 stickers from these companies for marketing purposes. Well, that is how all the junk mail starts and I do not know how to stop it!

OMG Who Cares? It makes good starter for the fireplace. Why are people so skeptical when they get FREE MONEY?

I absolutely hate junkmail. I use my PO Box for all my offers and so far I have only gotten one thing so far which was a free DVD from one of the offers.

I find it hard to believe that anyone could upset their emotional balance by allowing hatred over an inanimate object like a sales pitch on paper that they can easily dispose of without further consideration to play a part in their daily life.

It's just one more thing I'd rather not do. I don't get junk email, I don't get solicitations or calls other than from businesses or people I know, and some days I get zero mail. Makes the shred pile build up very slowly :)

I also received the same thing and was happy to fil out the survey in that enveope. Now inwish they send a few hundreds of those mail to me.
No, putting your real address on the fusion cash will not create additional mail. I haven't seen any other mail except the Dane bills that keep on coming.
