hi, this is my first post as well as an very important one. im selling my laptop on craigslist. a potential buyer emailed me, said she was interested and supposedly sent me $600 for the item. i got an email(or fraud) from paypal verifying the funds sent. it provided me with shipping address and transaction id. MY PROBLEM WITH THIS when i log into paypal.com and check under my account, there is nothing to be seen about the funds...no transaction history period. i typed in the transaction ID and nothing came back. did an email search for the email she was contacting me from, negative. last name,first name...negative. so something is fishy to me. is this person trying to rip me off??? im new to paypal so i dont know what to look for as far as legit transactions,etc... please help!!!
