Alarm bells are ringing, is this for a phone to be sent to nigeria or similar?

 

No its not normal and sounds like a scam, paypal never tell you to send an item before receiving payment but scammers do.

 

Anymore details? Meantime do not send anything.

Hi there younggolly, 

 

This is not normal, never send an item until you can see the payment in your PayPal balance. 

 

You can forward any emails like this to spoof@paypal.com
