Hey @Kingbuds,
To be honest, based on what you've said, it sounds extremely fraudulent. We don't require any gift cards to use PayPal, and you definitely don't have to add a card to receive a payment through PayPal. I wouldn't trust the screenshot you received. You can login and check your balance directly to see if you received a payment. I hope this helps!
