Is this a scam?

Someone in the US is sending me money. Is it true that I have to pay a fee before the money goes through into my paypal? 50$ fee for 1000$ transaction. They emailed me and asked me to purchase a 50$ gift card through "card delivery.com" and send them the card after i've purchased it & the 1000$ will immediately go into my account. Is this a scam?

I got today this offer as well from Alex W.... from Instagram, then he will transfer to me as sugar baby 5000$, but to get this payment, I should get a razer gold voucher for 100$ 🤦‍♀️ wrote as well he owned construction company.. Of course, I wrote to him bye-bye! Lol! Be careful with all this strange people online. I hope my respond will help you not to present razer gold voucher as a gift to someone 😉
