Hi, today I sold two items on cs:go through friends and family for 71usd total. I did family and friends to prevent refunding on either side. However the payments I recieved haven't been added to my total balance. It doesn't say anything about pending or anything just that there are two payments that obviously haven't been put into my account yet? This occurred 3 hrs ago.. this is what shows on my account: Bill from | xxxxxxx | marked as paid | blank | 71usd What does bill mean and have I been scammed :(((((

4.1 Receiving Personal Payments. If you are selling goods or services, you may not ask the buyer to send you a Personal Payment for the purchase. If you do so, PayPal may remove your ability to accept Personal Payments.
