good day, some person demands payment from me for norton 360 (+500usd). Obviously this is a scam. I don't use Norton, and even according to the email it will be a scam. How can I clear the request?

Check your PayPal account to see if the request/invoice is on your activity page. If you see one, then you can forward the email to the email address to report phishing emails found here: 

How do I report potential fraud, spoof or unauthorized transactions to PayPal?

 

With a note saying that this request/invoice is randomly sent to you and a scam because you never ordered such services and to please delete/remove from your account.

 

If it’s only an email, just forward the email without the note.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

The request cannot be completed. We are sorry, but this type of transaction is not possible to file a case. Please see our user agreement for more details.

Sounds like a scam money request or invoice.

Scammers harvest email addresses and send out those requests hoping some email addresses are linked to paypal accounts and the unsuspecting recipient 'may' pay them not realising they are scams.

If there is a cancel option then cancel it, if not ignore it and hopefully it should time out at some point.
