Help. I received notifications via email that three people threw the same amount of money via paypal at me. I didn't ask for donations and I don't know what's going on. I'm not claiming any of it, I hope the money reverted to those people. The thing is, is it a genuine mistake or is it some funny scam going on? Any one has any ideas? All the senders have one name, all have one message; best of luck!  I tried to reply but the emails cannot be sent. I didn't click on the link in the emails. The more I think of it, the more I think it's a fishing scam. |

It's a scam for sure. Genuine mistakes usually don't happen with paypal.  Is it similar to this? |

It's a scam for sure. Genuine mistakes usually don't happen with paypal. Is it similar to this? Right on. It's the first time I've seen this kind of email so I was puzzled. It was in the spam box, I always take a look because sometimes a friendly (sending for the first time) gets dropped there by mistake. When I checked further down, I saw two other emails with the same message and was very puzzled. Since I don't know them, I didn't click the link, I only attempted to reply. Of course the mails rebounded. Good thing I never click on anything unless friends specifically say they're sending a link over. Will be more vigilant.  Thanks. |

If those were real I would be a millionaire from those donations.  99% of those messages are sent to my spam folder. Never click any of the links on those spam messages; always log-in on the PP site itself. Unfortunately some people are gullible enough to fall for those scams. Use common sense. |

Please donate to the "BeerfishbenevolentFund.com" This worthy cause will feed and cloth a Beerfish for a week for one low price of $99.95.  (May or may not be a legit organization, may or may not provide tax receipts, may or may not be used for booze instead.) |

On holiday on Dantooine. This whole "vengeance on the Jedi" thing gets very tiring after a while.

I can always tell by the person donating. A random peasant? Scam. Nigerian prince? 100% trustworthy.

You know, I have been getting some emails about my pay pal account locking up.
But its not that important to me, so idc all that much.
They do look official though. So these scammers are good.
btw, I just checked the website, nothing wrong there.
