Urgent please! as someone's about to pay me into my bank account

[alltoomuchrightnow]

am i completely safe for this? I know i asked before but need to be 100%
They want to send a courier and pay into my bank account
Its my only account, Barclays Current
I should only give my acc number and sort code / name? not the 3 digits on the back? sorry to sound ignorant but i'm only ever paid by paypal or cash if anyone buys or owes me

i know but i'm desperate. i get £71 a week on JSA so the £70 in itself is a whole week's extra money. He says he'll pay the £30 on receipt. Not holding my breath . but i need to get through the week. no benefits through till Friday. Hate being on benefits full stop but i left DV and got taken off ESA at start of year, now i'm job hunting but in the mean time it's really tough…
This £70 means i can get thru till Friday, it would be a very tough week otherwise. I'm sofa surfing (registered homeless)… the courier's picking up from DP's home where i'm staying this week.
im not in position to turn down money however i'm aware i could very well be scammed
:-(

yes I'm having to pack it up. but i found a box to fit it. so i only needed a 99p roll of bubble wrap to pad it out inside its casing. if i need more i'll just use newspaper or even old clothes lol
and no, he doesn't know my situation..

yes you will have to buy bubble wrap as the last thing you need is for it to arrive damaged however as he paid BACS he can't get refund from ebay
if not enough bubble wrap scrunched up plastic carrier bags work too better than newspaper, wrap any delicate bits separately within box

yes.. combo of bubble wrap, paper, carriers, any thing can get my hands on.. even (clean) clothes from the going to rags bag if i have to ! can't give him any cause to complain

ok that sounds weird re the clothes but i used to manage a charity shop and would sometimes resort to this when selling wine glasses etc if out of packaging. an old headscarf or woollen scarf for eg.. wrapped around something breakable worked a lot better than any newspaper did
