This is a 'spoof' email and you should report it to PayPal right away. Don't click any link in that email and don't log in to your PayPal account from any link in that email or the spoofers will have your information and may empty your account. I would change your PayPal password right away and report this email. |

I never heard of it, and its probably a scam. Check on www.snopes.com and search for your particular email. It'll probably show you that its false. |

Yeah, only the guy at the top of the list. If you pay, you might as well send me the rest of your money. |

It would be a good way to redistribute the wealth; however, the list always breaks down before it gets to you. |

Do not answer those, or go to the links they give you. These are "phishing" emails to get you to give up personal information to rip you off. Just foreward it to this address. spoof@paypal.com they will investigate it for you. |

This is known as a "Pyramid scheme". Those at the top do get rich, and after they have money the next people below them can get money too. However, for the scheme to work and everyone get money there would have to be an infinite number of people joining in constant succession. Since most fizzle out, many will lose their money making a few people rich.
Think of it this way- lotteries work by everyone putting money into a kitty and a few people getting that kitty- ie a lot of money. If everyone won on the lottery (as pyramid schemes claim) then everyone would only get back what they put in.
In short- steer well clear of these offers. |

Of course not it is a scam, the person at the very top always ends up with the money, these pyramid scams were found out in the U.S. years ago and it is only now on the Internet that they are finding ground in the U.K. because we couldn't be fooled the first time around. |

This is simply a pyramid scheme. Those at the top will get rich if there are many people that join and send the £3. What you should think about is when does the next person below them get their money. There needs to be someone outside of this scheme to affiliate and regulate who goes next and how long the person at the top stays there. These schemes can work inthe short run but someone or somewhere along the way people will lose out. Tread carefully. |
