Hello, I am new to this pay pal. But I recently listed an item, got a buyer and they wanted to pay by paypal. They asked for my email that I used on paypal. Sent the email, then I received and email from the buyer saying they had "paid for the item and I needed to ship it" also received and email from paypal saying the money had been taken out of buyer account and to get it posted to my account I had to send the tracking number from the package. Sent the tracking number and received and email from paypal stating that the money would be in my account in 24 hours. This morning I received and email supposedly from paypal stating that they had taken $400 more from the buyer than was supposed to and if I wanted to receive my money that I had to refund the $400. I don't understand how they expect someone to refund $400 that they never received. I guess you would say that "stupid me" sent the item to the address and now I don't have the item or the money. I do I know if the first email from pay pal was legitate? Any suggestions on what I should do. Because the first email I received from paypal told me to mail the item also.
