Scam????

Having a payment sent to me, via a business transaction. Received a screenshot from the person sending me money and it shows the transaction to be pending their end, but at the bottom is is saying “Transaction pending $50 Google Play Card to access your payment, thanks.” Is this an elaborate scam or is this needed? Please help!

Scam. PayPal NEVER requires someone to buy a gift card to send money or see a payment received in your PayPal account. You have not been paid.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
