Hello @StoicaCristina,
Thanks for joining the Community!
It sounds like you've been asked to purchase Bitcoin before you can receive a payment, and I'm sorry to hear that. Please do not make the purchase. This is a scam that we're starting to see more frequently. You can learn more about common scams on our Help Center by clicking here. Please note this is a US article, but the information is relevant for everyone. I also suggest checking out, How to determine if an email is from PayPal. PayPal will never ask you to pay any upfront fees before receiving payments or making account changes.
I hope this answers your question about receiving payments!
