    For receiving it 150 Rs for SBI, irrespective of the amount. For sending depends on the Sending bank.. so for example if paypal sent the wire transfer if will be Rs 150 for receiving.

    well i cant say about this mail,
    but few days back i received a mail that i have received a chargeback on one of my sales. I did not clicked any links on that mail. Deleted my cookies, cache and everything . When I logged in my paypal account, there was no chargeback at all. It was a fake email (at least thats what it proved to be) and it was from . So i would suggest forward it to and call paypal to confirm.

    X-Originating-IP: [216.33.244.6]

    http://whois.bizz.cc/216.33.244.6

    the IP address is owned by eBay Inc, so i would peg it at genuine,

    AND...

    “I hereby authorize PayPal to initiate the wire transfer to my bank account, details of which is included in this email”

    till the time its "to my bank account" and NOT "from my bank account", all seems fine! :D

    Well friends, I have replied their mail asking why I am the only one who has been offered wire transfer ? Also I asked that why you have not mentioned anything about the amount I want to transfer.

    I am waiting for their reply. May be I get reply today. I will update the thread once I get reply from them.

    Well just read on net that PayPal asking people about wire transfer but they also e-Bay sellers to. So I guess you have account with e-Bay too! Let me correct if I am wrong.

    Well, i just spoke to some one in Pay pal Chennai and they said that the problem is till there as far as bank transfer is concerned.... :( They also said that pay pal Chennai is just a development center, so they cannot give any more information.

    Here is the pay pal Chennai no, 044-66348001 and 044-66348000. You can talk to them in Tamil too, if you know Tamil.;)

    according to my point of view, i would like to say tht may b its a scam but by seeing @paypal.com email ur thinking tht it is coming from valid paypal source, but a hacker can use smtp or mailer for any email he like example and one more thing which i noted over here is paypal always send message by first name or last name like dear shahid , it ll not send any email by dear sir, check your previous emails u can verify thre also . they send dear first name or last name but not dear sir. so sounds suspicious.. lol even i use to spam like ths long back .hehehe...

    No use telling coz you guys dont trust...

    Its been said so many times on this thread that its legit..

    I cant understand one thing whats the harm in only giving your account no??they are not asking for your netbanking passwords and all..

    That's right. They are only asking for the swift code which they don't have in their database.

    I think they have randomly chosen coolapts to test the wire transfer service. May be in future they'll provide this service permanently in paypal account. Just like wire transfer option available in moneybookers.

    OK guys, it seems to genuine from paypal. I just got the reply of my email :


    I have replied and given all my details. I am just surprised that why they dont ask my Bank A/C No ? All just they want was branch name,swift code,my full name & authorization letter.

    I have not done wire transfer before, can anyone tell A/C no. is needed or not ?
