startmypay.com . . . is this a legit operation . . . it is a so-called referral system?

One is awarded $5 dollars credit for each time one gets someone to click on the link of the site . . . I did not open the site. (But believe it is advertising) . . . This is the only decent info I could find about startmypay.com on the internet

Has anyone had any positive feedback on this. I have a friend who is so happy that he has already "earned" §35 on his phone . . .
Add:
I am also the opinion that this is a scam . . . but can find no reference to it . . . if you read further down in the link above, you will see that one first has to reach a sum of $500 before one can "cash" in on the credits . . . and then the fun supposedly starts . . .
It is just so odd . . this site has been up for 7 months and yet, one finds nothing, no positive or negative reports about it.
It seems to have started doing the rounds on the mobile phones in South Africa, and I have even found ads for it on job sites in South Africa . . . if this is a scam, then there will be way too many fold being duped . . . and mobile phoning is an expensive activity in South Africa

Would be happy if someone could come up with some useful info
