@peaceshanti NEVER use friends/family to purchase anything, they are scammers and if you trade with them then you will have 0 buyer protection. Secondly you never pay any upfront fee as a seller. Ignore scammers that send fake Paypal emails telling you that you need to pay an upfront fee to verify/upgrade/or any other reason to 'accept' a payment. You would certainly never have to send funds via another payment processor/bitcoins/ or tokens/vouchers of any sort.

No funds in your balance = you have not yet been paid, even pending/held payments will still show in your Paypal account activity.
