Hello, Recently I sold a product , buyer agreed to pay via pay-Pal , it’s my first time. The buyer is from America, I got a message recently that the shipping cost need to be paid via Bitcoin, if I pay that shipping cost I receive a bill and I show the bill to PayPal I will get full amount in my account. Do you think this a fraud , pls let me know Thank you

100% SCAM.

 

Paypal would never tell you to use a rival payment processor ie Bitcoin to pay shipping.

Also you NEVER have to pay shipping costs until the buyer has PAID and the SELLER decides on the shipping courier.
