I live in Guyana, South America and a relative in the U.S. is trying to send me money through PayPal but an error message keeps popping up stating that I can't receive money. Please tell me what is wrong

The option to 'receive' paypal payments is sadly not available in your country.
You can only 'send' payments for purchases.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive paypal payments.
