That's interesting how they use the sob story. Anyone wanting to pay is going to feel conflicted, so they give the user an out by letting them feel like they're helping poor people in Syria. They've chosen Syria because it's well-known and in the news.
I wonder if their English is poor, or if they're trying to be endearing to help their conversion rates. You could confirm the former by correlating it with what common errors people in different countries make.
It doesn't look like they expect people to infect their friends, but offering the false choice is a pretty common way of making people feel slightly more in control. It probably helps their conversion rates, even if nobody picks the blue option.
