Is this a scam some one paid me 0.01 $

Total Amount: $0.01 USD
Currency: U.S. Dollars
Transaction ID: 8V880270GB3465232
Quantity: 1
Item/Product Name: Test Package
Buyer: Thomas Krieber

I never asked for the money and the user un verfied and not us.

What can it mean?

 

Take the money and keep quiet...Ssshhhhhh!!!

Col

 

I don´t but I would refund the money. Maybe there is some one angry on you and sent you this amount and will do a chargeback, even for 1 cent. And then you won´t be able to provide anything. I know this sounds "stoopid" and every normal person wouldn´t do anything for this but PayPal will do from my experience. So not to get in "trouble" I would just send it back or even don´t accept it.

 

It could also be someone interested in something you are selling and used it to see if you were a verified paypal user?

 

I heard people sending more then 1 cent like 100 dollar and he send the money back and he still get a chargeback or something like that.

Well i guess i can afford losing 0.01 to see what it is

 

you need do nothing, forget it

 

Refund will be a good option.

 

Yup don't take any risk for 1 cent..Refund it.

 

Your the lucky winner of the random test payment! Its just someone testing out a payment method or website, and they just happened to enter your email address, i dont think they are going to come chasing you for the money..

 

If you are selling an ebook or digital service someone just got it for $0.01

 

I'd be safe and refund the money. It's not worth the hassle of a chargeback or risking your account for a mere penny.

 

I wouldn't be worried since it even says test package in the message. If you're worried just refund it and forget about it. Paypal should keep a record of your transactions and see that it was refunded. I remember getting one as a unique form of advertisement. A new paid-to site sent a bunch of people (I assume that they bought lists from other websites) 1 penny with their website in the message box.

 

He might have found your email address somewhere and wanted to find out your name and information.

 

I would accept it. There is nothing they can do to you for accepting a $0.01 transaction.

 

of course there is: they can force you to give something like tracking or similar. if you can´t provide they can hold your acc limited (of course only if it has become limited because of this transaction before). they will even do this for .01.

 

refund it is my advice, its only 1 cent...

if it was a test of like 1000 dollars lolz that would be very nice

 

I should have open a poll here the votes are 50 50 something. Still nothing from the guy that gave me 0.01 $. Anyone else got same thing happen to them?

 

Refund it! I will send you .1$ from me so you got it without any risk then.

Really: it´s not worth it and I offer you 1000% of it ;-)

 

Refund the 1 cent, just to be on the safe side.
