Have you heard of this? a friend of mine told me this, and He saids that he is making money from this, putting you name on the mailing list. 6 people remove one persons name and then put yours, all you need is a paypal account. I am going to try it, I even google this and it is legit? I haven'nt tried it yet, but I am going to try it. Have you heard of this? Has anyone tried it? Ok. Let me know what you think?

Honey, it sounds like an obvious scam.
Please don't fall for it...

I've done this through the mail by sending a $1 but I've never done it online with paypal. Let me know how it works and I might join in on this. I never did very well through snail mail!

Hi Marcia! I have tried these before but never had any success with it. I hope you have good luck. Please let me know how things go for you. If it works I might try it the next time I get an e-mail like that. Take care!!!

Marcia, I have heard of this, but have not joined due to some friends of mine being scammed with it. From what I understand the people who they went under took all the money once it got so far, then closed out the Paypal acct. From the last I heard Paypal was investigating but had not been able to do anything at that time. This was a couple of months back.

I had this kind of offers like 18 years ago when we do not had any internet. those times , they used mail and post office. They said it was once and ilfe time oppurtunity. I never joined it.
My take is: if some people really joined this maybe only the first person in the top mail will got the money. The bottom one will never see a dime.

These chain letters have too many flaws to work. Nothing would stop me from putting all of my own addresses into the letter so that all the payments go to me. There's not much you can do to ensure they work, and it's just not a good way to attempt to earn money.

Be careful it sounds like a pyramid scheme to me and they are illegal.
Both Ponzi schemes and pyramids are quite seductive because they may be able to deliver a high rate of return to a few early investors for a short period of time. Yet, both pyramid and Ponzi schemes are illegal because they inevitably must fall apart. No program can recruit new members forever. Every pyramid or Ponzi scheme collapses because it cannot expand beyond the size of the earth's population.

If I am correct I believe this is nothing but an electronic chain letter, where you send the top person 5 or 10 and a dollar to the other five and then they move thier names up .. I would stay clear from this, but please use your own judgement
