Hello, i have received a payment from someone buying a item from me via gumtree
but the payment he sent is on hold, he sent a further £3 for upgraded postage and it come right through

I received an email to say its on hold till 7th december if no problems come up

and if i want it to clear sooner i have to add a tracking number

 

i'm concerned its a scam, i dont want to send a product without cleared payment

 

is this a scam?

If the payment is actually SHOWING in your paypal account but with pending next to it then it sounds like the new seller hold  >>
