I received an email saying I have to ask the sender to send me 500 dollars to upgrade my account so I can receive more money and then I have to go to money gram and refund her the money. Is this legit or did or receive a fake email?

SCAM.


Paypal NEVER tell you to send an item before the payment is showing in your paypal account.
Paypal NEVER expect you to use a rival money transfer service eg Moneygram or Western Union etc.
You do not have to upgrade your account or pay money to do so.
Delete any emails and ignore the scammers.
