    Why are you stalling? I mean you're spending all of this time talking about a penny and act like you don't have a clue what to do. It's an easy fix - a no brainer. If you're so concerned whether or not it is a scam or not, just take the advice of getjimmy, Zoomone, Hellfire's, overlordror, Connections, cool_78 and simply refund the money. Is it so hard for you to do?

    Now, we can get real "deep" about this and get into karma and the principle of it not even really being about "the penny". This may or may not have been an accident but let's say one day you send your money to the wrong email address and the person responds like you are to this "one cent" and refuses to send the money back to you knowing full blown well they didn't transact with you at all. You'd be upset, wouldn't you? Surely nine times out of ten, this person is not going to be upset about a penny but the principle -- look at the principle -- if it were more, then what? So if you want to spread good karma while also doing yourself a HUGE favor, then do the easy thing and refund it especially since you did not transact with the person that sent it to begin with. It's truly just that simple. :p

    if you are selling a ebook some people will send you 1 cent in order for the digital item to be sent to you... if you know what i mean?

    ebook costs 9.99 digitally sent out when payment comes into your email from paypal - item sent out.

    Well that's the problem right there, you are TRYING to see. Just see it. hehe. Funny, it's a shame you are choosing for some strange reason to complicate a really simple situation. Your original question that supposedly still stands: "What can it mean?" and my question to you is, "With all that you've posted on this thread including your original post before you even thought to hit the submit button to post it (and I suppose you can throw in what other people have said, too), why don't you already know the answer to that question? Or are you just choosing to look around it or ignore the answer that is right there in your face? You know some people do in fact do that for the sake of some sort of 'excitement'. Well it's way too easy to figure out. And that's all that's to it. Wishing you the best in putting together this "mystery". hehe. Toodles. :D

    LOL.

    If he refunds it, can the sender make a chargeback for the original transaction?

    I think it could sent by mistake or otherwise you do not have to worry because it is not too big amount, you can refund or keep it it is up to you.
