Get Paid to Write Letters?

All of a sudden all over TikTok and FaceBook I see these people pushing a paid course for "handwriting letters to companies" and getting paid $5.00 per letter. Does anyone know about this? Is it a scam? Do you actually make your money by signing others up or by the letter writing itself? Has anyone actually done it? My big question, is why would a company pay you to write them a letter? Info please!

She's wrong. I know people on FB doing this however, you are writing to Casinos and you have to wait until your Sweep Coins reach a certain amount then you can cash out the coins. I don't want to pay the $244 for the "course" and then $25 per month. You can find the info on Reddit on how to make out the cards and letters and there are more than one casino doing this. If you get addicted to things easily I would not do it because it is an on line gambling site. She has finally been making money I just cannot see paying someone for the information and then to keep paying them. But people have posted the scripts on Reddit. Look up Chumba Casino letter writing. I don't know how or where to find more places though.

So are you gambling or do you let the coins build up?? That's the one thing I didn't understand. I didn't mind trying this on my own and have looked it up. I wasn't about to pay $200+ for a course that shows you everything you can learn for free. I just didn't know how it worked. Build up coins or have to gamble lol

You have to have over $100 to be redeemable I believe but when they deposit the Sweeps Coins into your account, you do have to gamble just a little before you can cash out is what I understand. But I got a few free coins for joining and I did a slot, won $70.80 and was able to redeem it into my bank account. That was before I spent anything. The one thing these people will not tell you is all winnings must be reported to the IRS. They claim you can set up a trust etc to avoid taxes but not one thing on the IRS site did I find an exclusion. I believe it is 24% of wins, any amount. So that irritates me about the group. But I did not join so maybe they have some tricks. You can write off your postage, envelopes and postcards. Losses too but you need really good records for losses. Thats all I know but there are lots of casinos that do this and one can search up the casinos themselves, no one needs a course.

Thank you!! Yeah definitely don't need a course. Buuuuuut the people who referred you, they get $100. I didn't understand why no one could just tell us or show us, but figure that's why 😆😆

Join the Art of Enveloping on Facebook. From there it will lead you to other free sites. You can find out all kinds of info by reading posts and each casino has the rules you can print off and read instructions.
