Hello   Im new to paypal and ebay and I think ive got a scam email. i wont detail whats happening but basically im refusing to send my item as theyve not credited my paypal account with the money. I have reported to eBay. However Ive just received this and was wondering if its fake? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!   Dear My Name It is important we know the status of the item bought  from you by one of our client Aerocat Telecomswith Transaction ID:Some random ID, otherwise legal action may be taken against you since you have not e-mailed us the Tracking Number Of Shipment from the postal office.   We believed you entered into agreement by requesting money through PayPal from the buyer, and by non e-mailing us a valid Tracking Number Of Shipment from the postal office, you are violating PayPal users agreement in act of the 1999 PayPal Law in collaboration with the World Law Enforcement Agency. You are now mandated to provide us the shipping information postal office within the next 24hrs, failure to do so would result to the involvement of the Police for violating PayPal's instructions and users agreement in act of the 1999 PayPal Law in collaboration with the World Law Enforcement Agency.   We are ensuring to make PayPal a safer place, therefore we need to set confidence on all our users.       Address: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Address Status: Confirmed Once this information is provided we will fund the money into your account and failure to do so you will face the consequences of LEGAL ACTION and your PayPal account suspended.   This is done in other to protect both the seller and buyer from the ongoing internet fraud activities.   With more than 147 million accounts worldwide, we are a leading online payment method you can trust. Thanks, Scott Thompson President PayPal, Inc ... View more
