Just need to know because i think i am being scammed . I sold a air cond on gumtree now the buyer said they could only pay by PayPal or by EFT I said i didnt have paypal and for them to payid the money to my bank acc then they asked me for my BSB NUMBER AND ACCOUNT NUMBER so i gave it to them . Despite me saying i didnt have PayPal they then sent me a email stating the money had been paid into their paypal account and i had to go purchase a $100 STEAM CARD from the supermarkret and send paypal the number under the part you scratch off once i had done that then the money for the aircond would be transfered into my account immediately . Te email from paypal was sent to my spam inbox and they also said to move the email to my primary inbox when i received the email it had a big red square stating to report this because it didnt look safe . Now i have just received another email saying that this transfer is 100%legit and is waiting for me to get a $100 steam card so i can receive my payment . Does this sound like a scam
