I have been asked to send a payment to [removed] at a gmail address as a friends and family payment which is not protected. This appears fake as if I put in the amount it transfer’s to USD. It just seems fake. Is this real?

Not sure how we would know the answer to that one, but never send friends/family payments to purchase goods/services as its against paypal rules and negates your buyer protection.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
