internet scams how to avoid??

At least from my experience, once you have the funds deposited into paypal they cannot get it back unless you authorize it. That is the point of pay pal to avoid scams. Never had a fishing scam artist try to pay me through paypal. They always want to deposit a larger sum in your bank account and then have you refund the difference before their check bounces.

Wrong if they go to the bank the following day they can stop the money from being transfered to Paypal and the money will be taken back from you. The only way I would release a car through Paypal is make them wait 7 days after the transaction. If they want it sooner have them wire it Western Union as the safest way to receive money and not be scammed.
