I ran into the same type of scam today with a ps4 sale, but once i saw the nigeria address attempting to purchase a ps4 from Michigan, USA, it was pretty obvious that it was a scam. The other issues with the email itself all but confirmed that it was indeed a scam, the - in the second 799.00 dollar amount, the 45 days to open a case contradicted by the 2 days to file a claim in the next paragraph, and Official PayPal emails NEVER go into spam, at least none of the 783 prior emails from PayPal have. Careful reading, some common sense, and a quick online chat with an actual paypal representative will help anyone to avoid this scam in the future. Good luck all, its a dark and dangerous internet these days for digital money!
