Not trying to be overly harsh dude, it's just you shouldn't have missed that this was a scam unless you've been living in a cave on Mars with your eyes shut and your fingers in your ears. 😛

Remember, check the URL; if the URL doesn't start with "https://www.paypal.com/" it's fake. Same goes for eBay and anything else.
