Hi: i posted an item on Kijiji for $6,000.00. I got a reply and did not have a current PayPal account. It took me some time to update my account. I got several emails from PayPal service stating that $6,600.00USD was in my account, and I was to return $500.00usd. I had added $100.00 for shipping their cost $6,100.00. I phone PayPal and they told me it was a scam, which I suspected because it did not make sense to me to overpay and send them money back. Sneaky. Then I got an email stating they were reporting me as a scammer. nothing like putting the fear of God into you. Pay up or we report you as a scammer. Brazen con artists. I hope this helps someone else not to get scammed. I'm 78 years old but not stupid I hope. Have a good experience with PayPal so far for me not so good.
