 Hey gang, just want to let you in on another possible BS rule of paypal. Just sold an item on the 'bay...recived an e-mail from paypal that my payment is on hold for up to 21 days:shock: See e-mail.

















PayPal – The safer, easier way to pay



  • Use your credit card without exposing your card number to merchants.
  • Speed through checkout without stopping to enter your card number or address.
  • Easily send money to family and friends.







Fight fake emails



  • Forward suspicious emails to spoof@paypal.com.
  • Make sure you’re using the latest internet browser.
  • Visit the PayPal Security Center.

NOTICE OF PAYMENT RECEIVED - PLEASE SHIP ITEM

Dear tony duronio,


You've received a payment, detailed below. We’ve placed a temporary hold on the funds for this transaction.

PayPal and eBay are working together to make payments for eBay items even safer. Because we want both buyers and sellers to feel confident about sending and receiving payments through PayPal, we may temporarily hold payments for items sold on eBay.

Make sure to ship the item right away, so you'll have access to the funds sooner. We’ll release the hold in 21 days unless you receive a dispute, claim, chargeback, or reversal on the transaction subject to the hold. We may release the hold earlier if either of the following occurs:
  • The buyer leaves you positive feedback on eBay.
  • We confirm that the item was delivered.* We can confirm delivery if you ship the item with USPS, FedEx, or UPS and either use PayPal shipping labels or upload tracking information from the transaction details page. This applies to transactions within the United States.
Additional hold period

If you receive a dispute, claim, chargeback, or reversal on the


so I check my account and the money is there pending:X but I send a phsishing e-mail to paypal, and they thank me for reporting the problem and it was a bogus e-mail...so WTF???

I'm tempted to tell them to shove it and cancel the deal???

BTW I have 67 transaction and a 100% rating:?
