So I am purchasing this 17$ watch off of Ioffer and the seller seems very legit (I did a lot of background chase on him like going through his past items sold and he also has a 96% positive feedback from different people) but I never used paypal before and he's asking for my paypal email so he can send me the invoice but I just want to know that after the transaction he won't be able to get into my card or see my info ( I don't really care if the product isn't good I just want to know he won't have any access to credit card info)

No way possible for the seller to do anything to your linked accounts. PayPal acts as a sort of "firewall" between them. They can send you an invoice, but they cannot remove money from your balance on PayPal without you authorizing it. Very safe.

paypal is the safest way to buy things . if he is a scam paypal will do everything to help you and get your money back . I always judge a site by paypal . if it doesn't accept it I would never buy from the site .

Heres how you can make money, THE $6 DOLLAR INVESTMENT!!!


ALL YOU NEED IS:

1) An email address
2) A PayPal account (IT’S FREE)
3) $6.00

THIS IS A 2008, CURRENT EMAIL LIST

Ever since the internet became popular, the word "scam" has become a
daily term. I have never once tried any money making "system" outside
of this because of that very reason. I decided to give this one a
shot...Especially since the so called "risk" is only $6.00. I mean,
for the chance, what a joke right? Anyway, only hours after
implementing this exact system I about fell out of my chair as money
ACTUALLY started rolling in. I couldn't believe it and for that
reason, I wrote this intro and became a believer in this system.

WHAT IS IT?

The idea is that of a system that takes advantage of the power of
compounding. And in a big way, let me tell you. First and foremost
understand that there are countless spin-offs of this system that try
to make a "quick buck" off of people. Long lists, the 5 & 10 dollar
trees, the birthday systems, etc... Those spin-offs do make money
because of the ease of implementation of this idea, but they do NOT
use the compounding advantage. This system is THE legit and profitable
one.

HERE IS HOW IT WORKS:

There is a list of 6 email addresses (you'll see it as you read
further). Each of these people has already taken part in this system.
When someone new comes along (such as yourself) he/she removes #1 off
of the list, moves the other five email addresses up one position
(i.e. #6 goes to #5, #5 to #4, etc.), and places their PayPal email
address in the #6 position. This process is what develops the power of
compounding. The bottom line is this... Honesty, Integrity and
Motivation creates Profitability. Following this EXACT process is what
creates the money, and that is why this system has been raved about in
the media. Altering the system creates weak results. You are "ASKING"
for someone to send you a dollar. That is solicitation. What you are
providing is a "SERVICE". You are offering a service to allow others
to put their names on a list to be circulated again to other
prospective people. Which, in turn, they offer this same service. Yes,
this is "LEGAL" and taxable. Now on to how your $6.00 creates BIG
money...

INSTRUCTIONS:

STEP 1:

The first thing to do is highlight and SAVE this entire post in word
or notepad on your computer so you can come back to it later.
After that, if you are not already a PayPal user you need to go to the
PayPal website at http://www.paypal.com/ and SIGN UP. If you want to
be able to receive credit card payments from other people then you
will need to sign up
for a PREMIER or BUSINESS account. This is highly recommended to allow
others easy payment options. In order to place the initial $6 into
your account, you will have to verify your bank account with PAYPAL
(which may take a few days). PAYPAL is 100% secure and is used by
millions of people worldwide.

STEP 2:

Here is where the action occurs.
The first thing to do is to send a $1.00 payment to each of the 6
email addresses on the current list from your PayPal account. To do
this quickly and successfully, follow these simple steps:

1). Login to PayPal and click on the "Send Money" tab near the top of
the screen
2). In the "Recipient's Email" field enter the email address
3). In the "Amount" field enter "1" (This is your $1.00 payment)
4). In the "Category" field select "Service" (Keeping it legal)
5). In the "Subject" field type "EMAIL LIST", and in the "NOTE" field
enter
"PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR EMAIL LIST".
By doing this, you are creating a service and maintaining the legality
of the system by "paying" for the service.
6). Finally, click on the "Continue" button to complete the payment.
Repeat these steps for each of the 6 email addresses. That's it!
By sending the $1.00 payment to each address, you are implementing the
compounding POWER of the system. You will reap what you sow!

Here is the current e-mail list for 11/08:

the email list:




1. louisversace@yahoo.co.uk



2. rockd...@att.net




3. toe...@aol.com



4. cam...@page-entertainment.com



5. cameroonchildrencharity@yahoo.co.uk



6. kar...@live.com




STEP 3:

Now take the #1 email off of the list that you see above (from your
saved file), move the other addresses up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4,
etc.) and add YOUR email address (the one used for your PayPal
account)
as number 6 on the list. This is the only part of the document that
should be changed. ** Make sure your email address is the one you have
registered with PayPal **

STEP 4:

Post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups or message
boards. Keep in mind that there are tens of thousands of groups
online! All you need is 200, but remember the more you post the more
money you make - as well as everyone else on the list! I've began to
see money roll in before I even hit 100 posts, but try to hit around
200 to allow maximum exposure. Use whatever your internet browser is
to search for various news groups, on-line forums, message boards,
bulletin boards, chat sites,
discussions, discussion groups, on-line communities, etc. For example,
log on to any search engine and type in a subject like 'MILLIONAIRE
MESSAGE BOARD', 'MONEY MAKING DISCUSSIONS', 'MONEY MAKING FORUMS', or
'BUSINESS MESSAGE BOARD', etc. You will find thousands and thousands
of message boards. Click them one by one and you will find the option
to post a new message. Fill in the subject which will be the header
that everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a
particular group, and post the article with the NEW list of email
addresses included. THAT'S IT!!! All you have to do is jump to
different newsgroups and post away. After you get the hang of it, it
will take about 30 seconds for each newsgroup.

HOW THE MONEY WORKS:

When you post 200 messages in various forums, it is estimated that if
at LEAST
15 people respond and send you a $1.00 ($15.00).
If those 15 Post 200 Posts each and if 225 people respond and send you
$1.00 ($225.00), etc. through 6 levels of email addresses. For
comprehension purposes, here is an easy viewing chart:

1) 15(1) = 15 people ($1) = $15
2) 15(15) = 225 people ($1) = $225
3) 15(225) = 3375 people ($1) = $3375
4) 15(3375) = 50625 people ($1) = $50625
5) 15(50625) = 759375 people ($1) = $759375

As you can see, your $6.00 has multiplied exponentially. What other
opportunity that is as simple as this can cash in the way this can?!
I'm not going to say this is going to make everyone over $800,000, but
within a few WEEKS you should begin to see results, thanks to the
speed of the internet! When your name is no longer on the list, take
the latest posting in the newsgroups and begin the process again.

Simply amazing... One other tip to speed up the process even more: You
can send out your amended post(after you complete the process and add
your PAYPAL email address to the list) to the contacts you already
have in YOUR email address book! It is AMAZING how fast this works. Be
cautious though with your emailing (don't spam hundreds of people you
don't know). Combine this idea with the steps above to “MAXIMIZE” your
profits. I can't stress enough how this system works wonders. There is
something to be said when an idea is internationally publicized, just
make sure you take advantage of it (especially for only $6.00!).

Follow the system as described, and enjoy your PROFITS!!!


REMEMBER... HONESTY, INTEGRITY AND MOTIVATION = PROFITABILITY

YOUR NAME COULD CYCLE FOR A LONG TIME! THIS MAKES IT THE GIFT THAT
KEEPS ON GIVING. This is excellent seed money to start or expand a
business, buy your dream home, car and pay off whatever bills you may
have.

HOW TO POST TO NEWS GROUPS?

Try searching for various newsgroups.
(on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.) Log on any
search engine then search with the subject "millionaire message board
or money making message board or employment message board or money
making discussions or ''money making forum or business message board;
etc. You will find thousands & thousands of message boards. Click on
them one by one and you will find the option 'post a new message'.
Then Post this article as a 'new message' by highlighting the text of
this letter and selecting copy then paste from the edit menu.

Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that everyone sees as
they scroll through the list of postings in a particular group, click
the post message button. You're done with your first one! It only
takes about 60 seconds to complete postings on message boards after
you catch on.



REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL
MAKE!!

TO YOUR SUCCESS...

INSTEAD OF POSTING IT TO MESSAGE BOARDS, FORUMS, ETC. TRY SENDING IT
TO PEOPLE YOU KNOW. 15X15X15X15X15=$759,375
