People asking to buy Facebook pages?

[Jada]

I have a "Like page" I made for fun years ago on Facebook and recently, people have been offering to buy it from me. I obviously check out their personal pages and they are real people with friends that they know and talk to etc. They always reply to my questions, but I still find it very strange.

One offered me $79.95 for it via PayPal and he would pay me before I gave it to him.
I know they are using it for advertising, but if someone is offering money for a group I forgot even existed, then I'm cool with that, I just want to know why they would offer money for a stupid page. It has about 124,000 people in it, so it's not as popular as a lot of others.

I don't really know how PayPal works so I don't know if it could be some sort of scam?
Why would someone pay that much for something so silly?

Facebook pages are medium of marketing, mostly you will need an additional service, that you are marketing for via your page.
If your fan page is really popular, you can create a website or blog for it.
generally people create fan page for their blogs,sites,srevice but, you can reverse the process, i have witnessed some examples.
share link of your website on page.put ads on website and earn.you can sell stuff from your page.

So they want to buy it off you as it would give them a head start.

Make them send the money first. Then give them the page. Unless you dont want to

I have not had any problems with paypal in over 7 yrs. I would be wary of those asking to buy your page; I first wonder if they are trying to access personal info on those signed up.
