I received a confusing email from "[email protected]" this
morning. It says:
Thank you for referring PayPal to A Store 4u.com ([email protected]).
To show our appreciation, we have credited $5 to your PayPal account.
I have never done business with, or ever heard of, this place before. But
when I checked my PayPal account, there was a $5 payment from them. What
adds to the confusion is that I went to their web site
http://www.astore4u.com/ and clicked on the "PayPal Verified" logo and it
says that their Account Creation Date is April 28, 2001.
So I don't understand why I'm getting a referral payment from a place I
never heard of and they have been with PayPal well over a year now. Is
this some kind of a scam?? Anyone else received anything like this or know
what this may be about?

They finally met the criteria for you to get you $5.00.
Back then they initially joined by one of your buttons. Now after depositing $5,000.00 in their account at one time, doing an international transsaction and singing the national anthem of South Africa while doing 3 hula-hoops you quality to get your money.
I have no problem getting my refferals to do the first three but the hula-hoop throws them so I do not get many.

Thanks for the replies. I was just a little suspicious getting "something for nothing" from an unknown source.
I've received a few referral bonuses before, but I knew who they were from and they didn't sign up a year and a half ago.
