Should I just send it back (not sure how)? Who would leave their rent money in someone else’s account and not answer texts or emails. Just very strange to me.
Thanks

It sounds like you are being used as the victim of a scam, or as a pawn in a scam. I would document your correspondence with PayPal, remove the money from the account, and never send another email to the person who sent the money to you. If you receive any other correspondence from the sender, forward it to Pay Pal. You may also want to close the PayPal account and open a new account.
