It is a scam, none of the email addresses are legitimate PayPal email addresses, they are free ones.

I would suggest that you remove the screen prints as they have your own details on them, but can you please copy the text of the emails and all of the email addresses and paste them here for other victims to find.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.

the email is [email protected] so it means its scam?

Please post all the other email addresses - the accountant.com ones - they are the ones that claim to be PayPal, but are fake.

If you had really received money sent by PayPal, it would show online at PayPal.com for your email address and if you don't already have a PayPal account, then they would ask you to set on up and then it would be shown, but all emails would come from paypal.com and you would sign-up/login at paypal.com and no other website.

PayPal do not hold on to money while people provide tracking IDs or anything else - all payments immediately show in your PayPal account.
