I am selling a used table on dba.dk a Danish website for second hand goods for 2000 ddk

a guy wants to buy and transfer 3500 ddk by paypal. I can´t see the transfer in my account but on the service email from paypal it says the money has been deducted from his account and is currently on hold. All I have to do is transfer 1500 dkk by Skrill to a transport agent.

What happens we I pay the "transport agent" 1500 ddk? will the 3500 be released as promised or does he withdraw the money and I loose 1500 ddk?

Hi there,

 

Welcome tot he PayPal Community.

 

It is a scam. PayPal have no need to use other payment processors. If you pay the transport agent you will lose that and the goods.
