Payment received from buyer

I got the email stating I received money from a buyer, and it asked me to reply back with the tracking number. I did reply back with the tracking number. However, I didn't get any response back for four days now. I emailed back several times, but I still didn't get a response.

Sounds like the below scam, read it and see  >>

 

A TYPICAL PAYPAL SCAM.

They encourage you to use paypal and may ask you to send the item internationally.
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.

Paypal NEVER tell you to send an item before the payment is showing in your paypal account.
Paypal do not tell you to send trackable, they advise it for selling protection but it is not compulsory.




Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

However, I got the payment from the same buyer. It also asked me to reply with tracking number. Paypal emailed me back stating the fund will be released.
