Hello, A couple of days ago i sold something and the buyer said the he payed me via paypal. On my recent asctivity section, it says that the payment status is "marked as paid" but it's been 3 days and i still didn't revieve any money. it also says that it was a paypal gift and "The amount can take up to 24 hours to reflect in your PayPal balance." it's been over 3 days now, is it normal for it to take this long or have i been scammed? Thank you in advance.

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.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
