> [@hjb1000](#): > > haha so Liam was right! > > The thing is though- how is this a ‘phishing’ scam? All the site seems to do is link to legitimate online stores with the promise that Paypal will reimburse you for $20.00. I can’t see how any personal details would be lost? At worst you don’t get your $20.00 back… or am I missing something? 😑 Yeah I thought that too - the links are legit. You just wont get back your $20. ---

I get offers all the time from paypal, Then a day later they send another saying “not for you”, Does anyone ever get friggin vouchers I’m sure they don’t even exit. ---

The real question is whether ```auto www.paypal-offers.com.au ``` is a legitimate Paypal site- it appears to be, unless the scammers are getting pretty sophisticated… Where’s spud when you need him? ---

yeah, it looks legit to me, and its been around for a while. here are some previous offers: [http://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/paypal-offers.com.au](http://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/paypal-offers.com.au) i should also mention that i found the original deal from [ozbargain.com.au](http://ozbargain.com.au): [http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/18008](http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/18008) regardless, always best to exercise caution. if in doubt, don’t order. ---

When you go to [https://www.paypal-offers.com.au](https://www.paypal-offers.com.au) And hit the contact us button it redirects you to [https://www.paypal.com/au/](https://www.paypal.com/au/) Which is where I go to sign into my account. So - New question. Is this offer just for the recipient of the e-mail or is it open to everyone? ---

[Pay Online, Send Money or Set Up a Merchant Account - PayPal Australia](https://www.paypal.com/au/) redirects straight to [https://www.paypal.com.au/au](https://www.paypal.com.au/au) so… what’s the deal here? all very odd. ---

I ordered some stuff through [Wiggle.co.uk](http://Wiggle.co.uk) this morning and it shows up in my paypal account, order is currently being processed through the my account function on the wiggle site and it says PAID VIA PAYPAL… Seems legit, just not expecting the $20 cashback after reading all this and I changed my PAYPAL password just in case… Anyhow, the dollar is sweet got some Gators and lenses for under $100 with free shipping! ---

I ordered some stuff through wiggle. Will see how it pans out but everything appears as normal now (although i changed my password just to be safe) Edit - Oldpuggler read my mind! ---

Looks legit - legit as in it’s a PayPal site. Funny though that “paypal.com.au” is; “Registrant: PayPal Inc” I wouldn’t go there - remember if you’re paying $50 and getting $20 back, you’re still paying $30, just this way that site makes referrer cash, paid by the stores with money made from inflated pricing to you. Also, paypal.com.au redirected to [paypal.com/au](http://paypal.com/au) for a very long time, it seems that now they’ve finally made it work. Web 2.0 eh? edit; page3snypa ---

Just so I’m clear- you just have to spend over $50.00 on any of their approved Paypal stores and you’ll get given a $20.00 in your account? So technically anyone who uses Wiggle in the next couple of weeks and spends over $50.00 will inadvertently get a $20.00 in their account?? :? ---

yeah, it seems strange to me as well. usually there’d be some sort of voucher code or such. ---

i still don’t get why an “official” paypal site would have a seperate domain to [paypal.com](http://paypal.com) 😑 dunno bout this one, doing a wiggle order next week so hopefully i get $20 back hahaha [Previous page](https://fixed.org.au/t/paypal-20-cash-back-for-all-transactions-over-50/41924.md?page=1) [Next page](https://fixed.org.au/t/paypal-20-cash-back-for-all-transactions-over-50/41924.md?page=3)
