Hello,

 

I recently sold something and the buyer wants me to include a $300 gift card.  I received an email that confirmed their payment, but the payment is not showing up on my PayPal.  They are saying they want me to send pictures of the gift cards in order for my account to be credited.  Is this a scam??

 

Thanks

I have also a buyer that wanted to purchase my merchandise and include $400 gift cards. Then i need to email them. They email me back telling to scratch the card. So I did. Then when I about to check the balance there’s nothing left. How can i resolve this that money that I bought is my son’s money i borrowed. I have the buyers informations. IS this a scam?
