Any potential scams from someone purchasing your goods via PayPal. I have a buyer who paid. I’m ready to ship but the account seems new with no photo and the user name, PayPal name, and receiving address name are all different.

Thoughts?

It's possible.
You send the merchandise and they claim it wasn't as advertised or that it never arrived and demand refund. Depending on the disposition of the funding you can end up without the merchandise and the money.

Just google and learn: If your order never shows up and the seller can't provide proof of shipment or delivery, you'll get a full refund. It's that simple. Open a dispute in the Resolution Center to get the process started.

Personally speaking, I'd not do it Too many red flags.
The only way I can think to cover yourself is to send it tracked and require a signature from the receiver, so you can counter any claims of it not been sent, etc.
