Sorry you have been scammed.
THIS IS A TYPICAL SCAM.
They encourage you to use paypal and often ask you to send the item as a gift to a relative somewhere often Nigeria.
You will get/got a "fake" email that looks as though it is from paypal.....it isn't.
It will say the buyer has paid ...you won't have been paid.
They will tell you that the payment is released when you provide paypal with a tracking/shipping number......this won't happen.
Sometimes they tell you that you have to pay a shipping agent for them via western union, again rubbish as paypal would NEVER tell you to use a rival payment service.
Paypal NEVER tell you to send trackable, they advise it for seller protection etc but it is not compulsory.
Paypal NEVER tell you to send an item before the payment is showing in your paypal account.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
