I recently sold an item and the buyer paid through paypal. When I emailed them my email address it was to be paid to, I accidentally used a different email account from my phone. The payment was then sent to this address. I have spoken to PayPal themselves and they have added that email address to my PayPal account and advised to wait 2 hours for it to show on my balance. This was approx 4 hours ago and I still dont have the money.
I know how this is important for you. To make sure you will receive the payment. Kindly check your email and see if the email address is already added and confirmed.
If not then make sure you do this. That is all there is to it really. In case the payment didn't show it's quite possible that the sender = buyer already have cancelled the payment because probably they were initially notified that the payment was being sent to a non-existent PayPal.
I must apologise. I didnt read the initial email properly and it turns out was a scam. This has since been reported to PayPal and they will be investigating the issue.
