Confused with "payment received" email, not from paypal.
Comments

All of mine show as from the buyer, not from paypal, I do get emails in two different formats though and this was mentioned by another regular on a thread the other day.
I only ever go by my paypal account though so probably have never bothered to look closely at my paypal emails.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Apologies for confusing everyone, myself included. It was late when I wrote that last night and I ballsed it up, hands up.
Having checked the payment received emails do all come from the senders email address but usually/always start "Item no 1234567, notification if instant payment from .......@....co.uk, this one just said "notification of payment received".
As it was in a different format to the usual ones it just caught my eye, especially with the foreign email address.0 -

It was me who posted, yes I get two different types of paypal emails now. First one confused me but was completely genuine, I've had a few since.
