I had someone send me money via Venmo....I never had a Venmo account so I am wondering if in fact when they sent it from Venmo that it was linked to paypal....
No, the way Venmo works with PayPal is that Venmo users pay PayPal merchants (through PayPal buttons or websites with PayPal checkout integration as goods and services payments) once they opt in for the ability to send payments in Venmo app.
