Sorry screen shot not showing so if you can copy/paste a gist of the content of the email we can normally soon tell from that.

But always be aware no funds in your paypal BALANCE means you have not been paid regardless of email content or being told its pending.

I copy/pasted the email because my screenshot randomly "corrupted" again.

 

And I finally figured it out. That URL was set up to receive IPNs (by me, years ago) but when I canceled the domain, I just totally forgot to remove it. So, yeah, the email is legit and I'm just not the smartest cookie 😅😅😅

 

Anyways, thank you for your time today! Stay safe 😊
