this man offered us to buy are phone. he wanted to use paypal. we loged on to our true pay pal account and reqested the amount he said. we got a email account back saying we needed to send the tracking info and the money would be in our account. after we did this we got a email saying it was confermed and we would recieve our money. the emails look laget but they were not.
pay pal will never ask for tracking info before releseing your money
pay pal emails are from service@paypal.com
scams are from paypalteam1@mail2online.com

Watch out with PayPal! I sold a Nokia N95 8GB phone on eBay, using Paypal, for $500 plus $35 postage. The transaction ID is 52F59575C25824352. Item number of the auction is 290251938218. User ID of being reported is pal-eng2. The item listed as paid on eBay, I got the usual email notification from Paypal that the transaction took place. Because of the amount and the buyer being out of the Country, I waited 48 hours to ship it. Went back to Paypal, the money was there. No notifications or communications of anything wrong from eBay or Paypal, so I shipped the phone. Today, 3 days after I was told by Paypal that the money was in my account, I get a new email from them telling me that they reversed the transaction because of unauthorized use of the Paypal account by the buyer... They took the money from me, I lost the phone and they tell me there is nothing that I can do. PayPal is not responsible and I am out of the money and phone. Watch out, do not use PayPal.
This same guy just requested to buy my item using paypal. Thank god I googled his name and found this link cause now i know to be careful and not send my item to him. Thanks for ur posting
