Am I being scammed?

So I sold this confederate note to someone, they paid, and then ten days later PayPal emails me saying the buyer didn’t authorize purchase. Since there’s tracking information they’re gonna review it. I looked at her feedback and they’re positive. She never contacted me, so I didn’t even know there was a problem. Will PayPal rule in her favor?

You're fine if you shipped to the address Paypal told you to ship to.

She did receive the note according to the tracking info, and it was days after she filed a dispute.

Keep in mind that sellers are unable to give buyers negative feedback, so all buyers have 100% positive feedback.

True. Maybe I’ll leave her feedback after the dispute is over, and put a little caveat in there.

Be careful what you say, positive feedback with negative comment will be removed

I went back through my emails just now, and it turns out she had filed a dispute once before for this transaction. There’s an email from PayPal from October 2nd, saying that there’s a hold on the money, then October 4th they ruled in my favor because I have seller protection, and they closed it. So the other one I wrote about is her second attempt! I didn’t know a person could file a dipsute more than once!

And you will get a violation.

As has been said before, all buyer have positive feedback.  Ebay eliminated negs for buyer in 2008.  Now what may be revealing is the feedback she leaves.
