Someone contacted me and said (there was more conversation before this) she would give me €2300 to my paypal account. She asked my email that is linked with my account and I gave it but she says that she is using her business account and using it for the first time. She also said that I have to pay charges so I can receive the money, the charge is €30. So I’m not sure if this is a scam or not. Edit: she send me this: Ok I'm gonna give you address <removed> So you can make the payment to this address now Make sure you send me the screenshot and friends family This is a scam right

100% SCAM.

You do not have to pay someone to receive funds and secondly friends/family payments have 0 protection.
