IS THIS A SCAM???? Buyer wants to pay $980 in cash for a Money Gram to be sent to his "agent", which will then release the $$ he allegedly sent to PP, which will also include funds for the $980 I paid out of pocket. Help, please. BELOW IS THE EMAIL THAT THE BUYER SENT TO ME. Hello XXXXXX try to understand me i sent $16,000.00 in all. I added $1,000 but $980.00 will need to be sent to the hauler agent via Money Gram and the remaining $20 is to cover the MG charges. PayPal said they wont release the money into your account until you get back to them with the Money Gram details of the $980.00 added with the payment as this is done by PayPal to protect both parties. The $980.00 will be coming out of your pocket as you will be reimbursed back with the total funds $16,000.00 once PayPal receive the Money Gram transfer details and receipt for proof of the money transferred. You're to go a Money Gram Money Transfer Office with the $1,000.00 in cash and send it to the hauler agent. You will be given the receipt of the transfer which you will have to email PayPal by replying back to them via the payment confirmation e-mail you received from them for prompt verification and quick release of the funds into your account. Hope you finally understand now?
