I sold my car on an auction on ebay this evening, buyer paid the $500 deposit via PayPal. About 15 minutes later a couple of weird things happened. I received a text message from Ebay saying "Your single-use eBay PIN is ****". Then I got a call from eBay customer support saying they were getting a supervisor for me that I had requested (I hadn't). Then I get a call from a Restricted number, a guy says he's a friend of Nick, the guy that just won the auction, saying he's having money problems and to be sure he pays me with cash. I asked him how he got my number and he said from Paypal. I think I'm getting scammed here. What's going on and what should I do?
