I sold my Playstation for 200 euro on eBay.
The buyer has already transferred the money to me via Paypal.
Unfortunately I have had a bad experience there and would like to be more careful this time.
I have received the message by email that the amount has been sent to me with a transaction code and its name.
I have the option to have a shipping slip printed out.
He told me again via Ebay message to which address it should be delivered.
According to the shipping information, it is also the specified address.
According to Ebay, its location is in the UK.
I don't find any information about his place of residence etc. On PayPal.
What do you all mean? Not that he paid via F + F.
Amounted to! Under no circumstances send off!
Just think for a moment: Is there no used PS4 in the UK?
DO NOT SHIP!
Shipping addresses in the UK were ALWAYS a fraud attempt!
Only allow bank transfer and PayPal friends for classified ads. Once you have the money, the scammer can't get it back.
And do not allow any other communication channel other than the chat about classified ads. Neither mail nor Whatsapp. They are ALWAYS cheaters!
And as a buyer only with buyer protection *
Imagine you buy something, pay with PayPal friends and don't get the package. Hmm. Stupid.
So no one will get involved with Paypal friends with a little idea.
I was not sure what the location report about Ebay relates to?
Could also come about through the VPN server, but thanks.
I don't even know if he paid for it via PayPal friends or the other alternative
This is there when you look at PayPal. Will you be able to log in after all?
Well, eBay classifieds is actually not designed for shipping. A party always has to trust, otherwise it won't work. I do not allow money to be transferred with buyer protection from profiles without a rating. That is what "Top" means for me and they have to trust.
THERE ARE NO EBAY CLASSIFIED ADS. It's the normal Ebay site, I don't know how you all get it ^^
My mistake. Well then check if the money has been received and if so, have to send the PS4. International buyers are normal on eBay. Does his profile have ratings?
No! This is clearly fraud! Simply that there's a message that he had paid… Did the money really reach you?
The money went into my PayPal account. The only question is whether he can pull it back and how I can tell whether it was sent via family and frends
On eBay, PayPal always pays WITH buyer protection.
Guys, did you really finish my text? ^^
The money has just entered my PayPal account.
The question is just whether he can pull it back at any time and how I can stop it
Yes but so that I can get my Playsi again if he pulls his money back?
I sold without return anyway.
The buyer has already transferred the money to me via Paypal.
I have received the message by email that the amount has been sent to me with a transaction code and its name.
Log into your PayPal account using a browser and check whether the amount has been credited.
If not, it is the usual scam of the so-called Nigeria Connection. Please read here: https://archive.is/Fl616
Yes, I will finish reading your text too… But you did not write that the money was received and there are some other things that are not correct:
I have received the message by email that the amount has been sent to me with a transaction code and its name.
Fraudsters often use messages telling them that the money has been directed or something, but that it won't be released until the goods arrive.
Then you wrote that the location was GB, but wrote in another post here that it would be shipped within Germany.
So, you should first describe your situation in a comprehensible manner, then you can also be helped, instead of letting people who want to help you know that they did not read the text correctly!
I provide under my contribution in picture, then you might like to take a picture yourself?
You have notification or not the money only if you log in to PayPal and it is credited there. And with PayPal this is possible in seconds.
If not it is fraud…
Call Ebay and they'll tell you if it's a scam
Yes, please
So the money is on it, just upload a picture, I'm more concerned with the fact that he can't withdraw the money
All right, thanks anyway for your effort.
Even in the enlargement, I unfortunately can't see anything. Please give the buyer's ebay nick.
I would not ship and cancel the purchase even if you get a negative review. At 200 euro that would be far too uncertain for me and it is cheaper for an Englishman to buy a ps4 in his home country.
What amount did you take as shipping costs?
He would like to have it shipped within Germany.
The location was more of a question.
Oh, then everything is fine. I also had that someone had a different location. I had no problems with buyers.
But he can still withdraw the money if he claims that the goods are not in the package at all or that something would not work
Like right now? He can just say there was nothing in the package, or even send it back with stones?
Then how can I trade safely?
Yes, you can make a boxing video, of course, but you can never prove that the console really worked before you dispatched it. And PayPal usually decides in favor of the buyer.
Oh man
Something is not right. All previous purchases were made in the UK:

I suspect the buyer account has been hacked.
Your comment:
He would like to have it shipped within Germany.
That does not fit.
Your other comment:
The money has just entered my PayPal account.
I don't like that either. Paypal accounts can also be hacked.
Please have the ebay account from ebay and the PayPal account from PayPal checked.

If you have received the money really on PayPal, not just by email confirmation then you have to send the Playstation as well. Just ask on Ebay by message to the buyer to which address you should send it… So you can't go wrong…
Yes he just told me that he works at the DKFZ in Heidelberg. Hope it all real. Oh man
Alright thanks
