hello and sorry if this isnt in the right section, i couldn't find any section where this would fit like an off topic or something and decided to post it here since im using an iphone 5 to check paypal through the app.

but my question about paypal is how long does a transfer take to receive or show up in the account activity? i sold my 2nd coc account for $60 and gave the buyer the account details through KIK after he screenshotted and sent me the receipt of the transfer. but it has been 3 days and i havent received the payment nor has it shown up in my accounts 3 month recent activity list. i made the paypal just for this so it's a fresh one and linked my debit card to it and already confirmed the accounts activation by email, not sure what else to do.

If you send money/ receive money it shows up almost instantly in your PayPal balance. I use the app on my iPhone 6 too, both on the PC and app, it will show any changes nearly instantly.

well can you think of any reason as to why it wouldnt? he literally sent me the receipt with my name and it says "you sent a payment for $30.00 USD to -my name-." then " please note that it may take a little while for this payment to appear in the Recent Activity list on your Account Overview."

in the other screen shot it just says the amount sent, total charge, who will receive it, and the date it was sent.

If you haven't received anything I would say its a scam and he probably edited the picture/screenshot. You would have received some kind of indication a payment was sent via PayPal transactions or an email from PayPal. Even if he sent the payment via eCheck (which can take up to 7 business days) you would have received an email.

Yes i have a fair idea. He could have sent the money to another PayPal of his, he could have used inspect element to change the email/name of the PayPal it was sent to, creating an illusion that it was sent to your PayPal email.

yeah im in the process of getting it back even though he changed everything. already got my gmail back but i have to wait 24h for an email from apple to be sent to reset the password since he changed the recovery email and security questions. only thing is, it will send the email to both my email i gave them and his since he confirmed it already. only i know when the email will arrive, so all ive got is the element of surprise since he has no idea this is going on and will have to change the pass and then the security questions, and then the recovery email before he notices.

Got it. All I have to do now is somehow get sc support to remove the village off his galaxy note 5 without telling them i tried to sell it haha. He hasn't logged in since it seems but I want this guy completely off for sure

Edit: anyone know if he would already be cut off since hes on android? I know ios doesnt do that but if I remember correctly, as soon as an email pass is changed it will ask for him to enter the new password when playing coc. If he doesn't then hes already cut off, Is that right? Would appreciate any info on that or if someone could test it out!
