Hi, guys, first time user of paypal so i dont really know whats up... but i have a question.. theres this guy selling lacoste shirts at craigslist. after speaking to him, he told me to put down a 10 dollar payment to his friends paypal account and pay the rest through cod... he also told me to forward my reciept(e-mail) that i got from paypal to his e-mail account. in the reciept(e-mail) it basically had my transaction id, my name and how much i sent to his friends account.. i was wondering if that was safe? because i already sent him the e-mail that i recieved from paypal since he cant get the reciept since its his friend account.. do u think that was safe or not? ....

Spend the extra $5 and get it somewhere else.

When you send money you AND THE SELLER get e-mails.

Tell him to have his "friend" e-mail the payment notice to him.

Sounds really shady.
