Please help!! I am selling my Macbook Pro via eBay, but the buyer reached out to me via email and then later text message, which has been our method of communication ever since. She said she directly paid me on Pay Pal (and didn't go through the advertisement on eBay) and I received an email from CREDIT PAYMENT and the email address is creditpayment @ consultant.com. The subject in the email is NOTIFICATION OF PAYMENT. The email is addressed to my first name only--read somewhere that Pay Pal always addresses first AND last name but cannot be certain if this is a mistake on my own profile, or not. The message in the email states that the payment is now in pending balance but temporarily unavailable. Here are a few steps you can take: Ship your item quickly. Then send the receipt you get from the post office to us at:Creditpayment @ consultant.com in other for us to mark it as shipped on the Transaction Details page. We would estimated your payment release date: Within 36 - 48 hours of the delivery date immediately, If you provide a UPS, FedEx, USPS International Priority Mail Express tracking number, your estimated release date is within 12 - 24 hours. Have a product or service that doesn't need to be shipped (e-book, piano lessons, etc)? We would mark your order as processed and provide details. Estimated payment release date: Within 12 -24 hours as soon as we veify the picture of the receipt you get from the post office proof. When I login to my pay pal there is no transaction in my activity. How long does this take to show up in my history? Please, can somebody help me find out if this is legitimate or not? I am not getting hate text messages from the "buyer" accusing me as an illegitimate seller. Thank you!!
