Wanting shipment to a James Adams. Requested that the transaction be made outside of Amazon.com. Then, when invoice was sent to the email provided, a fake PayPal confirmation was created as follows. I never sent the product because the payment didn't actually show in my PayPal account online, just in the fake email.
