Interesting Herculinks.com scam - GoFuckYourself.com

I just got a message from Paypal telling me that there was a request for a payment sent to me. They are requesting a payment of $5.95 to get my site listed on http://herculesporn.com/.

Here is the message I get in the Paypal screen:

Link~to~HERCULESPORN.COM http://www.herculesporn.com/linkexch...ners/index.php 1. Pay a $5.95 one time review fee per link so HERCULINKS can promote your website. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/websc...=GYQYDGWHAXC2Y * We reserve the right to reject or remove unpaid links. * Note: Your paid link with be visible at within 1 business day or less at: http://www.herculesporn.com or http://www.herculesporn.com/herculesporn/New/ Herculinks Manager e: [email protected] w: http://www.herculinks.com

The funny thing is I never contacted them. I don't know who this is or how they got my info. I wonder if they are just mass spamming and hoping that people will pay without asking questions.

Seems pretty freaking shady to me.

Im thinking we got this if we ever used Chameleon Submitter.

I got one also, $5.95 per link review.

I only charge $5.00 per month and you at least get 5 submits a day
