They are sending mails in their database this scam message.
this is not fair as only people who seems to have registered with them get these emails.
I got this email from JustBeenPaid support@justbeenpaid.com
This is very bad as they want to scam their own users.

i do not now that just been paid is a scam or not but the email which you received is a scam . these kind of emails are now become more common and they are cheating the people by this kind of emails . recently my friend was lost $125 . he blindly shifted the amount into their account . after knowing it was a fake and he felt very bad . so do not allow this kind of site emails. simply unsubscribe from this email there is a lot of danger because of this mails . all nettigens should be alert from this sites

This is a spam/phishing mail which is NOT sent out by JBP/JSS. Do NOT follow the link given in the mail. It will take you to a fake site which has been set up to look like JBP's site and is designed to collect your passwords and login information.
If you do what it asks, your Liberty Reserve account will be compromised and emptied.
I don't know how these scammers are able to target JBP/LR members but you can be 99% certain that JBP are NOT giving away their customers details.

I am not a member, so I don't know what access members have to other members' details. Different websites have different ways in which they make it possible for you to contact other members and, in particular, your downline.
I believe that there is already a warning about this scam on the JBP page. Perhaps you should raise a support ticket with them asking how it is that these spammers are able to target JBP members.

i think it is members iteself because they can see the email id of all their refferals plus their sponsor as well,reason why i am saying this because i recieved these sort of mails earlier,when i show original post i found that it was one of my refferal who is sending mail,so it can be members itself

It is a confirmed scam. The only problem is that it seems to be circulating around justbeenpaid members, so the question how did the scammers get our emails!!! JSS should anwser that question. If they can't then they are the ones trying to scam their own people

I'm sure you didn't get the mails. The problem then was that it was only registered members that were getting the scam mails. Calls for some big explanation on the part of JBP

Just Been Paid has already given alert notification to members that these messages aren't originated from JBP. JBP hints that such messages are aimed to get personal information of LR accounts of persons and wanted to keep caution.
