From the official guides
A Moblin who wants to please everyone: it says "it's a secret" and then gives money to every player. It hides all over the place, so you should find it often enough even without hints. The one who gives 100 Rupees is near the western fairy.
Whoa, there is a Moblin here, so what is this guy up to!? Huh, I see. Very good of him!! Yep.
He says "It's a secret to everybody" and gives you money. In some caves he gives as much as 100 Rupees. Of course, you only get it once.
Some Moblins are on Link's side. They give him up to 100 Rupees!
Some Moblins are on Link's side. They hide in secret caves, say "×××× ○○○○," and give you Rupees. You get 10, 30, or 100 Rupees. Up to 100, how nice is that? But once you have been in its cave, this stray Moblin soon disappears from it.
They hide underground, and when you visit they give you a bribe to keep quiet. The amount varies.
