Hi all,
today I've got an e-mail from this e-mail address <removed>, which seems to be connected to PayPal, however I am not sure, so I'd like to ask your help and support.
This e-mail says that:
- my buyer has transferred me the requested monay via PayPal MERCHANDISE Payment Service (Of course before this mail, between me and the buyer there was a long conversation -in mail- and finally we have made a deal)
- the mail describes the details of the "putative/assumed" paypal transaction (Merchandise Amount: €1,856.00 EUR ; Transport Charges: €800.00 EUR; etc...)
- And finally it writes the following:
In order complete this transaction and get the funds credited into your account you have to go to any Western Union Office and transfer the excess sum of €800.00 EUR to the Transport Agent and send us a Scanned Copy/Photograph of your Western Union Transaction Receipt.
In my paypal account, I do not see anything about this "transaction"...
Is this e-mail address valid and related to paypal?
Is this process valid? Do Paypal send this kind of mail and hold the money back until the western union confirm that I've transferred the requested transport charges?
I am very confused...
Please help me. Thanks in advance.
Br,
