If your paypal account has 3 e mail addresses linked to it (daughters and Mrs and mine) I assume that if anyone of those 3 are used when selling on e bay, that the money goes into the paypal account that is attached?

Sounds a stupid question I know, but just wanted to check!

The Paypal account should be linked to the ebay profile.

I've 'won' a part for my bike from eBay today. The seller is asking me to send the money to a different PayPal account to the one registered to his eBay account.

According to the "Congratulations, you've won." email from eBay his name is Rupert SomeName but he's asking me to send the PayPal payment to JohnSomeOtherName@aol.com

Does that sound dodgy to anyone? It's not a great deal of money (twenty odd quid) but obviously I'd rather not be robbed.


Thanks.

Yes I would pay to his account joined to his sellers invoice.

I have two email addresses and if somebody sends it to the one that is not linked to my PayScam address it won't go into the proper account.
