Log on to your PayPal account directly at paypal.com to check if there is a payment (pending or completed). If not, that email is possibly a fake/phish/spoof. Forward it to spoof@paypal.com and delete it. Fraudster will send fake PayPal email confirmations.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
