Hello @Anaisabelsampai

 

Welcome! Thank you for visiting PayPal's Community Forum. I'm sorry to hear there's been some confusion verifying your account and a recent transaction. You do not need to pay anyone to verify your account, so yes, unfortunately this does not sounds like a legitimate situation. You should never receive a receipt from both PayPal and Square for the same transaction as we are two different payment processors. I would not recommend sending any more funds to this receiver.

 

Here' are a couple Help Center articles to help guide you in the future: 

 

How do I spot a fake, fraudulent, or phishing PayPal email or website?

How do I verify my PayPal account?
 

I hope that helps!
