Redeeming Moneypaks

Several people have asked me to redeem moneypaks for them. So I have a few questions:

1) Is this 100% safe for me?
2) How do I redeem them?
3) Why are other people asking me to redeem them? Presumably they can just do it themselves...?

Thanks.

 

As far as i've heard so many people use them, and have had 1,000's of transactions and never one problem. I think they get you to redeem the money into your PayPal account, and you take a % and send them the remainder of the money. It should be safe for sure.

 

I believe MP is only available for Paypal users that reside in USA.

 

1). It's safe as long as you get them to send a picture of the receipt or back of the moneypak card in case paypal decides to ask for proof of purchase. (only happens if you redeem a lot of MP)

2). Log in to your paypal account, go to add money, then add money from MP and type in the code where it asks.

3). Pretty sure you have to live in the U.S to redeem MP and some people don't want to use paypal so they'll buy a MP card instead.
