Does it say pending / unclaimed on it or when you click on it and if so is there a cancel option?

I opened the transaction with my browser instead and now it gives me the option to cancel and then when I click cancel it send me to another site, where it says unclaimed I don't understand anything

ok then can you double check the email address that you sent to payment to and make sure from the receiver that they supplied you with the correct address AND double check you did not make a typo.
