Paypal Newbie
 

Hi guys

I'm not sure how Paypal exactly work.
I'm selling lot of lenses on Gumtree at the moment (around 20 pieces) and there is a guy who want buy all the lenses without a questions and just want my paypal email address.
He said he is from China and want a gift for his child .. It's pretty weird ..
Is there any chance to get his money back when I'll get them on my paypal account without my permission? I know that ebay has a permission but I don't know if enybody else..

Thanks a lot for the information..

I'm sorry my English ;)

If he files a dispute on paypal after paying you, yes there's a chance he can get it back.

This to me just sounds sketchy, a new time buyer wanting to buy your whole stock from overseas via PayPal.

Not worth the risk, what sort of kid needs 20 lenses as a present? Come on dude...

Perhaps ask him to pay you with western union =D

Actually its not just a 'chance' he will get his money back - its an absolute certainty.
Dont do it. this sounds like an obvious scam.
