lol, same for me.

Would suggest that when you get them, send them to Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/pt/cgi-bin/w...nter-outside

See the links on the bottom right corner:

Hi to all

There is also the "Paypal will not release funds" until you deposit $800 scam as well

It is reported here in Australia in the media all the time.
