hi i was selling 2nd hand items locally online ,someone expressed an intrest in one of my items , but said because of his work status he would arrange a shipping company to pick up item, i then recieved a email supposedly from paypal saying full payment for the item including the shipping costs had been recieved and said it would be released when i had paid the shipping company, i logged into my paypal but no money had been paid into my account. then i was told it was temporary suspended and being held until i paid the shipping agent via Western Union Transfer and gave the MTCN / MONEY TRANSFER CONTROL NUMBER, upon then my full payment would become available in my paypal account. My question is has anyone else encountered something like this before, im not very comfortable sending £85 shipping costs to NIGERIA before i see anything back. Is this sound like a scam to anyone, all comments appreciated, Thanks
