Someone sent me money from the US through PayPal and I'm in Nigeria. How can I access the money or resend it back to the person since PayPal does not support people in my country to receive funds? I tried to resend but my credit card number was being requested for but it's debit card I have. Now the money is hanging. Help please. ... View more
