I am using Paypal Rest API PHP and IPN. I am testing paypal live with a buyer and seller account. I have tried a buyer with not enough balance. After executing the payment, the payment did not push through since it has not enough balance but $_POST['payment_status'] returned 'Completed'. I want to detect via IPN that my payment was successful or not. So i am using $_POST['payment_status'] to trigger that so i could update my database on my site. Why is it returning Completed even if my payment was declined? Do you think $_POST['payment_status'] is not what i need? please help

This might be a bug. I would advise you create a support ticket and provide the following information:- 1. sample of IPN message you received 2. correlation/debug id 3. timestamp
