I got an email to my yahoo that looks bogus to me.  I was wondering if someone could verify it.  Thanks.

You can't post email addresses on here, that is why your screenshot is not showing up.

Best to give us a gist of the content of the email from which we can tell if its scam or not.

Yep, 100% TOTAL SCAM.


SCAM

You never pay any upfront fee as a seller or to receive payments into a Paypal account.

Ignore scammers that send fake Paypal emails telling you that you need to pay an upfront fee to verify/upgrade to a business account/or any other reason to accept a payment.

You would certainly never have to send funds especially 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.
