Hi Drusso6gen1978 and welcome,
I am sorry to hear what has been happening. This does not sounds like a genuine transaction. When you sell and item and someone pays you, you will see these funds on your PayPal account. Even if the funds are placed on hold for any reason you will see them on your PayPal account with the status "pending" or "on hold". We would never ask or you should never send any additional funds to a buyer as it may be that you will not get these funds back. Also, when you are sending a payment, we will only take the amount of the payment that you request us to send. Your buyer tell you that additional funds have been taken does not seem correct.I would wonder if some of the emails you have received are not from us as this type of thing seems to be a trend of getting the seller to send money and no payment has ever been sent by your buyer.
Please do not send any more funds or the item as a lot of things you have mentioned do not seem genuine. Never send any item unless you can see that funds on your PayPal account.
I hope this helps,
Paula

@Drusso6gen1978, Yes I do work for PayPal as a moderator here. It sounds like your son may have paid using what we call a guest account. This where you use PayPal to send a payment but do not log in to your account. Do you mean we were unable to locate the transaction ID of the payment that your buyer sent you? If so then it would mean that the transaction ID is not a correct one. I am not based in Australia however we can offer advice for all countries. It may be best to contact us directly so we can help you with this.You can contact us via chat by clicking on the "Help & Contact" and choose the chat option.
I hope this helps,
Paula
