I've received money from strangers a few times through PayPal with no issues! Just be cautious and trust your gut.
Yeah, PayPal is pretty safe for receiving money from strangers. Just make sure the payment is marked as 'Goods and Services' to get buyer and seller protection!
Hot take: Better safe than sorry. If you're unsure, use an escrow service.
