more likely someone in indonesia has hacked the account, so at least if you send it to the US the real account owner would be able to return the phone.

but again its still a good chance this is all kosha! try and get a phone number for this person and call them... US landline number? just for peace of mind...

i'd raise it with paypal and ebay that they are asking to send it to another country, and they will also investigate. keep the phone for now if in doubt, if they are genuine, they will understand.

well if the money has cleared into your bank, and something fishy is going on, you can always send the phone to me

btw, what phone was it?

As the money is in my bank now or transferring into my bank, how would paypal take it back out if that was the case?

right, so best thing is to hold on to the phone until the buyer responds!

Only send to a Confirmed Delivery Address. If the address in NY is not confirmed on paypal then do not send. If the is not confirmed then you have absolutely zero protection.
Also be careful how you send it. International recorded delivery only tracks until it leaves the UK. To be properly protected it needs to be sent something like DHL or UPS.

If the buyer purchased using his credit card thru paypal and does a chargeback then paypal will by default remove the money from your paypal account, if its not there they will try the 1st bank account assosiated with it and take the money from there, all without your say so............if i were you i would remove the bank account from paypal
