Is this a fake email???? I received an email stating:
You received a payment of $dollar amount from person's name.
Estimated funds availability.
The payment is currently PENDING as it awaits shipment verification....
Get a tracking number with a receipt and Manually enter the shipment tracking details to us for verification of shipment by replying to the tracking details to our customer care at click here
Instant funds to your Paypal account after shipment has been verified
They encourage you to accept a direct Paypal payment and may ask you to send the item internationally. No funds or activity of the transaction shows in your Paypal account and any emails may go into your junk/spam folders.
You will get/got a "fake" email that looks as though it is from paypal.....it isn't because they don't have a Paypal account and have no intention of paying you. It will say the buyer has paid ...you won't have been paid. They will tell you that the payment is released when you provide paypal with a tracking/shipping number......this won't happen.
Paypal NEVER tell you to send an item before the payment is showing in your paypal account. Paypal do not tell you to send trackable, they advise it for selling protection but it is not compulsory. Delete any emails and ignore the scammers.
Advice is voluntary. Kudos / Solution appreciated.
