All of my ebay sales, as sporadic as they are, go to a personal paypal. Why do I need to open up a business account? Also a little odd in that I subsequently send the guy a request for payment from my personal account which he hasn't responded to.

The Paypal email seemed entirely legit, and I mentioned properly referenced the "sale" amount and the high bidder.

All confusing. I guess I could call them.
I have used PP thousands of times and don't think I have ever seen that. I would not do it and call them to see what is going on? In looking at the email you received is their email address/url a PP address or some scam address? ...@paypal.com
