Hello,

 

Someone is emailing my friend asking to send money using the following email service at paypal.inc 

I think this is a scam. Do you?

 

Any input will be great.

3 important things to remember if its a scam.


Paypal NEVER tell you to send an item before the payment is showing in your paypal account.
Paypal do not tell you to send trackable, they advise it for selling protection but it is not compulsory.
Paypal NEVER expect you to use a rival money transfer service eg Moneygram or Western Union etc.


Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Thank you for the reply.

 

I understand that totally. I have explained this to my friend.  I would like to just verify that the email is in fact not a valid paypay email. 

 

Have a great day!
