I just sold a bedroom suite and have received a message from pay pal that I must send $800 to a shipper via western union before the money gets to my account. Also, that because it is an international transaction (USA / canada), I cannot cancel it. Is this for real?

Hi Jirry
This is a SCAM
The email is not from ppal its from your scammer
You do not have to pay anyone any money when selling an item!
Is this a private transaction or Ebay
If you sre sent any more emails do not click on any links/downloads

Its a scam.
Why would Paypal a payment processor, want you to send a payment via another payment processor.
