I was selling a phone on Amazon when I received an email from Rebecca telling me she was interested in buying. I should have noticed something was weird when she wanted to handle everything outside of Amazon. Well she told me that she paid and I received a fake papal notice telling me that she paid, so me being naive I shipped the phone out. A couple of days later i checked my actual paypal account and realized I never received the money. She then sent an email asking me to send over money because the phone was stuck in customs. I told her I knew she was a fraud and would not send anymore money. Below is the email chain between myself and Rebecca.

I have just authorize the money please kindly help me send the money today.

I have and i expect you should have receive the confirmation, the money is pending because i added the $300 to the previous transaction that is why it is still pending until you send the money and send them the MTCN, you would find out that the money altogether would be $715.00

I have added the money to your paypal account and i expect you should have receive the confirmation, The money would not reflect because i added it to the previous transaction and it would still be pending until you send the money and send the MTCN to paypal for verification.

Sorry to ask this but is there a reason you're unable to send her the money?

The item is used but is in great condition. A few minor wear and tear marks on the back of the phone but not significant. Once you put on a case it looks brand new. I had it for a couple of months.
