As you haven't added your country to your profile (so we can see when we hover over your username) or said in your post which country you are in so unfortunately its hard for us to advise.
Paypal varies a great deal country to country so you need to tell us where you are on this worldwide community forum.

Hello @SassyBritches22

 

Welcome to the PayPal Community! I'm sorry to hear you've run into some speed-bumps while trying to receive money to your PayPal account. As @kernowlass stated, PayPal's services vary from country to country, so it's important to get the best localized information for your country of residence. With that in mind, I'd recommend visiting our Help Center to search for the following Help Center articles: 

 

How do I receive money through PayPal?

Where is the money I received?
 

If they are unavailable, the option to receive money may not be available in your locale. Also, here's another great article you may want review: 

 

How do I spot and report a fake, fraudulent, or phishing PayPal email or website?
 

Good luck with this and future transactions!
