Hello @2hennypenny,
Welcome to our community help forum!
Thanks for the information @sharpiemarker! I totally understand your concern here. Please note that Friends & Family payments are not eligible for Buyer Protection. If you purchase something or if you want to make any payment related to the purchase to the seller, please send the payment as a goods & services payment to avail our purchase protection. You can reach out to the seller directly for the clarity on sending another payment for fees.
Best wishes,
Bindu

It’s not a phishing scam.. A transport company is saying I need to send them money.. over and above what I paid seller..
‘They gave me.. 2 emails to send money thru PayPal.. for friends…. Not goods or services..
