Selling via paypal

[JSG209]

Hi someone is buying a sofa from me. They want to pay via PayPal tonight and collect collect tomorrow evening. Is this okay as long as I see the money in my PayPal account and can transfer it to my bank? I know there are so many scams. Thanks

That depends on many factors all listed in Paypals buyer protection policy for you to read so you can risk assess your transactions.
Legal (bottom right of Paypals pages) > user agreement > buyer protection.

It was a scam so I blocked them. As soon as I saw the dodgy email I knew. Feel mad that I even considered it! Thanks

Replace the word *buyer* with *seller* in my above post.
