Paypal Money Request

Here's a new angle...

I got a legitimate Paypal Money Request from Cris Carriaga (cris_carriaga2006@yahoo.com) today. It was for $5 and the "details" said "Book Donation."

I have no idea who this person is.

I wrote back:

Huh?

Why do you want my money?

I received a response today, as well:

It is only for donation

our library needs new books

hope you donate

thanks you

God Bless


I guess he thought I would just pay it out without asking. I wonder how well that one is working...
