When they have to say "it's real" that's when you know it's NOT. People, stop being so dumb and gullible. Scam artists send out emails and post to forums and various web sites explaining that you can make thousands and tens of thousands of money via PayPal "which is free". All you have to do... promote an illegal Ponzi or Pyramid scheme. Oh they don't call it that. They tell you it's legal. They tell you it's amazing. They tell you it's fool proof. What they don't tell you is that they hope you are a fool.
First off, just read PayPal's rules... it CLEARLY states that ANY pyramid scheme is against their rules. Second, do a damn Google search when something sounds too good to be true. For some bizarre reason most of what you get when you try to Google this scam are the scam artists.
"Massive return on $10"
"Turn $10 into 10000 in Just 14 Days"
"A Real Money Maker, it really works"
Does any of that sound too good to be true????? Does the phrase "get rich quick" sound familiar????
It's an illegal pyramid scheme... illegal... as in get fined, maybe even go to jail. Of course, it DOESN'T WORK for most people, so most people don't get caught. Just a very few people actually earn any money... usually they're sending out thousands of emails with their own name in first position. And those are the folks getting in the most trouble.
There are LEGAL MLM's out there... they have products.... you actually have to SELL SOMETHING... and people have to actually BUY SOMETHING... otherwise.... ILLEGAL.
