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.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
