Hi all. Very new to Paypal. My husband has sold an item. The person asked that we choosr 'request payment' from Paypal Account. I have done that buy wld like to know what the chances are of this being fraululent. Would Paypal have informed me should the email address used had any previous fraudulent transactions? I tried searching but can't find anything

I assume you mean that you sent a money request for the buyer to pay?
If so DO NOT send anything until the funds are showing in your paypal account balance.
I also hope you fully described the item that you are going to send so that you have that info available in the event of a dispute for item received but not as described.
Lots of scams around so if you get an 'invoice' marked paid or similar and no funds in your paypal balance then its a scam.
You should also read up on paypal seller protection so that you can risk assess your transactions.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
