I have been asked by a potential buyer to send my PayPal details so he can transfer money into my account. I don't know where to look for these or how much info to send him. Can anybody out there advise please??

Normally your paypal email address which identifies your paypal account is all someone needs to pay you.

 

HOWEVER be very careful as lot of scams about.

 

1. Do not get scammed via spoof emails that look as if they are from paypal.

2. Never send anything unless the funds are showing in your paypal account balance, even if you are a new seller and subject to the new seller hold the funds would still show in your balance but have pending by them.

3. Do NOT send anything to Nigeria or similar.

4. Do not be fooled by you so called buyer and "paypal" telling you that you either have to >>>

 

a. Send the item and provide a tracking number BEFORE the funds show in your balance.

b. You have to pay the buyers shipping agent via western union or moneygram before his payment that is supposed to include these costs are credited to you.

 

If in doubt come back and ask.
