i revived an email last night regarding a pair of shoes that i shipped this morning saying this: “Seller Instruction This PayPal payment has been deducted from the buyer's account and has been "Approved". Payment will not be credited to your account until the shipment references/tracking number is replied back to the email address <removed> for verification, to as to secure both the buyer and the seller. Below is the information NEEDED before the payment is released and credited to your account. Send tracking number to Buyer. PayPal Email Service and our customer service care will attend to you. As soon as you send us the shipment's tracking number to us for security purposes and the safety of the buyer and the seller,the money will be credited to your account Once item has been shipped and the tracking number sent to us, you will receive a "CONFIRMATION EMAIL" from PayPal® Team informing you that the Fund has been credited.” is this legitimate? i shipped the shoes this morning, sent the tracking number to the buyer, and attempted to reply to the email with the tracking number. when i replied, i was prompted with, “Address not found Your message wasn't delivered to <removed> because the domain pay-----pal.com couldn't be found. Check for typos or unnecessary spaces and try again.” i have not received a confirmation email nor my payment. is this a scam? i am very concerned, seeing how the shoes were worth over a thousand dollars and i paid for express shipping.
