I have an issue where I am trying to sell something on FB marketplace. interested party is insisting on paypal:
"I have made the payment and the confirmation says you should check your email inbox or spam folder for payment confirmation"
"i got an email from paypal and i’m aware that your account isn’t a business so they can’t credit the money into your account because i sent the payment as “business” so can i trust you that once i send $200 for your account upgrade you’ll refund it back?"
"The reason PayPal is requesting this is because i had sent the payment from my business account to your regular account which can’t receive business payment and transaction but once I the extra payment paypal would upgrade you into receiving both business payments and transaction from paypal so I fygot your words in sending that ?"
"i just received an email from paypal saying the instructions has been emailed to you via the additional payment confirmation and mine is requiring me to send you my paypal information so you can refund the $200"
"Based on the confirmation email will see that there’s a buyer & seller safety enabled so you have to refund back the $200 from your personal pocket and get back to them with the proof either screenshot or picture for the $250 to be released into your account, available balance & automatically updated into your account activities because once you refund the $200 for safety measures it’ll go through to your account."
"So once you deposit $200 in your PayPal and make the payment, you will send them a proof of payment and they will credit you with $250 immediately"
I have attached screenshots of the PayPal email I received.
I am not seeing any funds in my PayPal account either.
