Is email asking reference/tracking number to FedEx Post for verification to receive funds legit?

So I was just wondering that If the email from PayPal legit. As I'm trying to sell to a guy using PayPal and I received an email that says I have to send the reference/tracking number to FedEx Post for verification to secure the buyer and seller. After I do that, the funds paid will be released into my account. Is this legit or a phishing scam?

1. If you googled for that number its probably one of the fake scam numbers.

2. It would not apply anyway to loads of folks that post on here as they may not be in the same country as you.

3. The fact its probably fake with scam paypal reps is the reason its against paypal rules to post a number on here.

Best to go to help / contact and get the real phone number for your country.
