Possible SCAM Convo

Hi everyone!

I have received this strange email which I am suss about as I have previously already had a scam email (different to the one below) which I was alerted to from a thread in another team of mine.

Has anyone had an email like this -

Hi,My name is Lisa, am interested in your item posted and am ready in immediate purchase and i can only make payment through paypal and kindly get back to me with your paypal email address and phone number so as to proceed.
Kindly get back to me to my personal email below(lisaboscarino12@yahoo.com)

Thanks.

What do you all think? I'm really suss about it.
Thank you!
Deb :o)

Definitely spam!! :/

I've had quite a few of those & I just report it to Etsy.

You could reply & just point out that paying through paypal is fine, just follow the checkout process on here & then the transaction will be complete.

There's no reason for them to need your paypal address or phone number or any other personal details from you.

Sorry this happened to you.
