In the latest scam victims attempt to purchase a variety of goods online, including high value electronics, clothing and footwear. The criminals then request the payment through the family and friends payment option on PayPal offering a range of excuses, such as being unable to receive the funds until 21 days later.

After payment, the victim loses contact with the suspect and later finds that the goods are not delivered. By using this service, the victim is unable to raise a dispute as it is not protected by buyer protection, meaning that the victim may be unable to retrieve the funds transferred.
