The "Target Get Paid for Shopping" email below is a scam being sent by online scammers to potential victims. The scam tricks the recipients into clicking on the link within it thinking they will get a job as a Target Reviewer and receive a free gift card worth $300. But, the fake website that the link goes to was created by online scammers to steal their potential victims' personal information. Therefore, information submitted on the fake website will be sent to the scammers.

Once the online scammers have stolen their potential victims' personal information, they will use the information to contact and attempt to scam them.
