No idea if this is real or fake, but it's blowing up the internets right now.
Just click through the offers, pick the $5 Paypal at the end and enter your Paypal email.

Apparently it's legit, the website is owned by Paypal.

I don't trust Symantec, considering they built that shitty Norton Internet Protection.
It doesn't even goddamn run scans on its own! And it is very easy to scan using it, and get false positives.

All they ask is for an e-mail. Clearly they'll hax0rz it and your comp00ter and steal your Steam games!

Seriously though, there is a huge difference between being cautious and being stupid. Many in this thread are the latter of the two.

Lol everything in this world can be hacked. So all every one is saying if you don't wanna do it, don't do it but stop making lame accusations that the site ain't legit and they will hack your account through email id or visiting that site may steal your password... Well even a pro hacker would have a hard time hacking your account if you have 2 step verification On

It's not that easy to hack an email address while only knowing the address itself. Most people have 2-step verification on, or use a dummy email address for promo stuff like this.

If this was a phishing site, they would for sure ask you to log-in to your Paypal using a fake login box. Why setup a whole fake site just to ask for only the email address?

Seems to have a legit certificate, but everything can be faked 0-0. It dosen't ask for a password, so if it's a scam, all what you will get is some spam that you can block.

The first sentence doesn't even make sense. Also a misspeeling.
The second word, another mistake.

You can always block them though. The problem is that they keep sending it from seperate email adressess, damn it's annoying. The site seems legit, if it's fake and they spam me, I will be pissed, because I put in my main email address instead of my spam one.

Nope, I solved that problem too! I gave all of my bank account information to the IRS, the FBI, Microsoft, the CIA, Paypall Support, eBaay Support, and several anonymous billionaires. By now, the paperwork should be nearly done and all of that promised money will come rolling in!

I mean, its been seven years, but they said to be patient and to not expect any contact until they're ready.
