PayPal fraud?

I don't use PayPal much so I might be being silly. I just received £1 from a company I've never heard of that is now asking for the £1 back. Should I ignore??

Yes contact PayPal tell them you believe this is a scam

No luck. Tried to open a dispute (the only way I can find to report it) and although it allows me to select the transaction where I received the £1 it says I cannot dispute transactions if that type. Looks like I will keep the £1 then!
