Is this real?
I sold an Xbox gift card on eBay yesterday and sent the code directly to the buyer after receiving this email:
Now, in retrospect, it all seems a bit suspicious, and I wanted to ask if it's real or if I've been scammed. I was at the bank today, and no money has arrived in my account yet.
Certainly not.
Don’t write eBayif you Classifieds mean.
These are two completely different platforms that nothingbut also nothing have to do with each other.

Of course not:
If, then it would be on your PayPal accountbut not on your Current account.
But whatever:
The mail is fake, you gave the code.
Teaching money.
Oh, yes.
You’re sure Yearly and it was already when you created the PayPal account, right?
Otherwise, you will soon face the next trouble.
The email is obviously fake.
A fraudster has crashed together cheaply, even the language changes between German and English.
You fell in on a very cheap mash.
Are you serious that PayPal checks any coupon codes?
What should the bank have to do with PayPal? If you want to know if you have received a PayPal payment, check PayPal in.
You know what I can do about it?
Quickly redeem the code itself if it has not yet been redeemed.
Nothing else.
You sent the code. What are you gonna do?
You’re angry.
If (subject) is paid by PayPal, the money would also be only on the PayPal account and would remain there until you actively buy something.
This is not automatically forwarded to the bank.
That’s real shit with a fake mail – and you fell in on it.
