Hi, i have a problem. I was scammed by a "sugar daddy". I sent him my email and i received an email with an estimate of 7.000 USD and i clicked accept. After that i realized it was a scamm. I want to know If it is a problem with that. I also deleted the account and i didn t had any credit or debit card associated. I would like your opinion, please.

You were sent an actual PayPal Estimate which is a way for a buyer and seller to negotiate terms of transaction. When buyer accepts estimate, the seller converts it to an invoice sending it to you to be paid. You do not have to pay it. Especially if it is a scam.
There’s no problem with what you did in terms of closing the account.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
