Hi all. I have a problem with suspicious buyer. He/she asked me to buy an Amazon gift card to pay a fee for Paypal.

I received a strange email .

I contacted the customer service that told me it is a scam! I have already paid for 1 Amazon Gift card.

I contacted straightaway Help centre, my bank, Amazon and the Police. I changed all  the passwords
