Hi. Thank you for reaching out to us. Yes that is correct. The money will remain pending or hold until the item shows delivered and will reflect it in your PayPal balance, it's up to you if you're going to transfer it to your bank or spend it online. If you are suspicious for example with the email that you receive you can forward that email to us at spoof@paypal.com, we'll send you an update regarding that. Hope this helps. Stay safe.
