It's failed 'logic', lol, someone tried to be smart.
There is no magic. Seriously..

So, you substract 1 from the 10 everyone has paid and get to 9. That makes sense, because obviously what everyone has paid is not any longer 10. But you forgot to substract that amount from the total being. The total being would be 27(30-3).

Now, we also know that 2 are missing because the Person has taken them for himself. So we know that the only amount that ever was paid by the people was 25. 25/3 = the amount every single one has paid.
Now if you do (25/3)*3+2 (remember, multiply before add :P) You will end up with 27, which is the total new amount everyone has paid. So here is the solution to this.. apparently considered math problem..

And if you still don't get it or you think its funny to fake people with such a text, I really had a good laugh at when I read this =)
