This letter carrier has his hands full when he delivers to this san jose home. Steven chavez lives here and the offers are all being sent to him. If you think this is a bunch, check this out. Steven has boxes and boxes of these types of offers. I think its a kind of thing for poor people to get this kind of mail over and over again. So why did you contact me . To see if you could help me get my mail stopped from being so crazy. It got like this because he responded to a couple of the mailings and now hes inundated with simple advertisements, along with scams and schemes, and he just wants it to stop.
