Anyone been told to pay for a razor gold membership to receive funds?

So a friend has said they’ve sent me money to my PayPal account they’ve even provided the receipt. Problem is in order to receive the funds they are saying I need to sign up For a Razor gold membership card via Dundle. I am from NZ so unsure how that works as it seems American. Is this a scam?

You never pay any upfront fee as a seller.

Ignore scammers that send fake Paypal emails telling you that you need to pay an upfront fee to verify/upgrade/or any other reason to 'accept' a payment.

You would certainly never have to send funds via another payment processor/bitcoins/ or tokens/vouchers of any sort.

Any fee is auto deducted by Paypal at the same instant the remainder of the payment is credited to your Paypal account balance.

No funds in your balance = you have not yet been paid, even pending/held payments will still show in your Paypal account activity.
