OK so I really wished I had read these forums BEFORE I sent this package 😞 but I had recieved an email saying that paypal has verified that the person has sent me money and would fund my account with the money once I sent a tracking number, so I did that, and also sent them a picture of the reciept (is that going to cause me even more problems??) and then they told me that in order for the package to be released from customs I have to pay 250.00 to some person through western union, they said that the buyer had been charged and that I would be funded that money once I sent them the tracking number for that. Now I got REAL suspicious because my paypal account showed no signs of charging the person the extra money... so I called paypal and they told me never to send anything to Nigeria ever, x__x
I should have just called paypal in the first place! In any case I wanted to know if I just never send the money to release the package from customs will it eventually come back to me? Or is it lost forever? I called USPS and they told me they couldn't answer my question and I know many other people have been scammed recently so is there any hope? I really needed that money to pay for my rent, now I don't even have money to buy food. this sucks.
