Hi, I am located in Bulgaria and I have to receive a payment via PayPal from a customer in the USA. How much I have to pay as a fee and how will I be notified to the amount I have to pay? My customer sends me picture where It says that I need to pay transaction confirmation of $ x first, but I don’t see that transactions anywhere on my account and I don’t know how to pay it or do I have to pay it or it is a scam It is a business account Tank you

You never pay any upfront fee as a seller.
Ignore scammers that send fake Paypal emails telling you that you need to pay an upfront fee to verify/upgrade/or any other reason to 'accept' a payment.
You would certainly never have to send funds via another payment processor/bitcoins/ or tokens/vouchers of any sort.
Any fee is auto deducted by Paypal at the same instant the remainder of the payment is credited to your Paypal account balance.
No funds in your balance = you have not yet been paid, even pending/held payments will still show in your Paypal account activity.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
