Steam card

[Mzbreeze]

Somebody sent me an email saying they sent $1000 but i have to purchase a $50 steam wallet card for verification purposes how true is this?

Hello @MialajeanxO, 

Welcome to the PayPal Community! I'm glad you reached out about this kind of activity. The short answer is no, you do not need to send a steam card to someone to receive money through PayPal. This sounds like one of the scams outlined in this Help Center article: What are common scams and how do I spot them?

Best wishes!

So is it a scam? Do I really need the stream gift card or any card for that matter for me to receive money off PayPal?

No. Please don’t buy a steam card. It’s a scam. They will try and show you screenshots and whatever else they can think of to make you believe it but i promise you, that you will get scammed.
