Normally your paypal email address which identifies your paypal account is all someone needs to pay you. BUT read this first if you have been ASKED to open an account to accept a payment as it may be a scam. >>>>


1. Do not get scammed via spoof emails that look as if they are from paypal.

2. Never send anything unless the funds are showing in your paypal account balance, even if you are a new seller and subject to the new seller hold the funds would still show in your balance but have pending by them.

3. Do NOT send anything to Nigeria or similar.

4. Do not be fooled by you so called buyer and "paypal" telling you that you either have to >>>

a. Send the item and provide a tracking number BEFORE the funds show in your balance.

b. You have to pay the buyers shipping agent via western union or moneygram before his payment that is supposed to include these costs are credited to you.

If in doubt come back and ask.
