Scammer

[Carriedelmon]

I am receiving multiple emails from paypal saying I need to send them a $100 in google play cards for my payment to be released. St first it was only 1 $50 card but now it's making me do another. Is this a scam?

Hi @Carriedelmon 

If you receive any emails looks like from PayPal you can forward the email to spoof@paypal.com 

PayPal will never ask to make a payment or send any gift cards. PayPal will maximum inform you that you need to take actions in case is needed and provide the steps where you can find what is required. Kind Regards
