THIS IS A TYPICAL PAYPAL SCAM.

They encourage you to use paypal and often ask you to send the item as a gift to a relative somewhere often Nigeria.

You will get/got a "fake" email that looks as though it is from paypal.....it isn't.

It will say the buyer has paid ...you won't have been paid.

They will tell you that the payment is released when you provide paypal with a tracking/shipping number......this won't happen.

They also threaten legal action...have a laugh at that one and ignore it as its rubbish.

Paypal NEVER tell you to send trackable, they advise it for seller protection etc but it is not compulsory.

Paypal NEVER tell you to send an item before the payment is showing in your paypal account.

23-5-2016...BEWARE ' Gwen Maharaj' from Nigeria or ebay user name 'GODCHOSEYYOU' offered me a fabulous sum of money for a wedding dress. Said funds would be released when I entered the tracking number. Turned out to be fraud, she asked my name which I have her & falsely sent me emails as if they were from PayPal. Thank god o didn't send her the dress.
