Someone please confirm that I the email I received is legit? I sold a iwatch for £450 to someone in France. The guy has no eBay reviews. He was very weird in his approach, very keen to have the parcel dispatched the second he bought it, even though the post office was closed. Furthermore, he said he payed, I then received an email from ‘paypal’ which looks legit, but it’s asking me for a shipping number before I can receive the payment. Any help would be great

Fake. Scam.

 

PayPal does not require shipment tracking number before you receive payment in your account and although providing shipment. tracking number can protect you from item not received disputes, it is not required to receive payment.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
