Sorry but thats rubbish as no fee would be that high.
If they used the friends/family option then you would not receive any fee as the sender would pay and only if they used a credit card.
If they used the goods/services option then your fee would only have been about £2.
So.......................
Have you bought anything and paid for it via paypal since the payment went in??
The reason i ask is that if you have funds in your paypal balance and then buy something then paypal will sometimes take from those funds rather than from your normal funding source eg bank account or card.
To check go and click on the word "details" next to any recent paypal buying transaction and see if they were funded from your paypal balance ie recent payment rather than your normal funding source.
