Hi

 

I was waiting for payment via PayPal and I have not seen any transaction have been made. person claiming said he received the notification saying that Payment has gone through but i have not received such a payment. I logged into my PayPal several times and seen nothing Pending as I know that if any payment have been made it would appear into my recent transaction and if any funds are there will be visible and if on hold still would be visible, am i correct?

I haven't click on any link on the buyer on under my junk email. Please advise. It said in his email that item need to be send first and once received fund will be released but I haven't seen any transaction or pending payment.

SOUNDS LIKE THIS SCAM, READ TO CHECK. 

 

SCAM.

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.
