private payment

[sean4912]

i am selling my car and this person wants to pay me through pay pal but states that paypal are now holding the sum untill i pay out 150 to western union this sounds dodgy any help

far as i am concerend if pay pal where holding it i would see it some where when i logged in surley

Yep its a scam, they don't want your car they just want to scam you of the western union fee.

Why would paypal want you to use a rival service like western union??
