Is this legitimate? - Tyler Durden. - May 2, 2018

Hello,

So recently I sold something on eBay, and the buyer asked me through eBay messaging if he could send the payment directly through PayPal.
I said yes, but I haven't sent him the product yet due to this.

This payment just looks different, and is in fact a bill, which is not something I am familiar with on Paypal.
I was afraid it was some kind of trick or something, because the 60$ doesn't show in my balance.

From Paypal Homepage:

The bill it self:

Do you think its a valid payment or what?

Invoice scam.

do not ship the items until the amount shows up in your paypal balance, and you have a payment notification email from the correct paypal address - check the domain is correct and not a fraudulent one.

good luck with your business

Never deal offsite when you're the seller using eBay.

The buyer always win if you do that, don't be stupid.

Maybe you should learn what an invoice is and then you will find out the answer to your question.
