If you click on the button it will send you to a Paypal page where it will "charge" you 0.00
I don't get it - if the cost of the add-on is 0.00 why it shows Buy Now?

The user posted it as a paid resource and set the price as $0.00. This expected behavior.

email harvesting ?

It still makes you go through the whole paypal process, but charges you nothing. Which is good, but now you have a new e-mail address which you know is valid.

I've seen this done on another development project. Not at all saying this is what is being done, but it can be done in this method.
