Someone trying to transfer money into my account to then be bank transferred

[Foggyjeff]

Help just had message via fb messenger stating that allegedly my friend has had her PayPal account locked and is asking to transfer money into my PayPal and for me then to do a bank transfer. It's not a close friend hence I suspected it was dodgy. When I proved further they wanted to transfer a few thousand pounds. Is there anything I should do?

If you want to risk your account being blocked as well then that is up to you.

Personally i would just say no.

Also if their account was blocked odds are they could not transfer the funds anyway.
