If it was marked as an invoice then its probably a scam doing the rounds as its been sent by a buyer and altered to look as though he has paid you.

Signs its a scam are >>>

its an invoice BUT sellers send invoices not buyers

marked as paid

marked as gift

says payment won't show in your balance for eg 24 hours

can't be chargedback.

Paypal NEVER tell you to send anything until the funds are showing in your paypal account balance.

Paypal payments are more or less instant.

Paypal will never tell you that a payment can't be subject to a chargeback.

So I have to request him to send me money instead of them sending me the money

No they can send you money using the goods / services option to your email address that identifies your paypal account OR you can send them an invoice or money request.

 

The whole point is that they have sent you an invoice to make it look like you have been paid when in fact you haven't.
