this was a PM I got from someone who thought they scammed paypal
signed up then shoped on ebay.payed for the goods i wanted to buy.then after pay pal had payed the guy i rang mt bank to stop the transfer in the end the seller had his money and i have a free p900 lol
so they must be 200 pounds out off pocket.they trey to cantact me i capted my big mouth shut!
Now what this person doesnt seem to relise is they did not scam paypal, they scammed the person who sent the p900! If you send money and the payment method bounces, then it doesnt get taken from paypal, its taken from the innocent person who send you the p900. So how do you feel now you know you screwed an innocent person over £200 / p910i

I'm tempted to say name and shame that idiot so we all know who it is and can avoid them!

I have to say I have some sympathy with the original poster. I once tried to open a PayPal account, it was very complicated and in those days there was no way to contact a human being so I gave up. I now recive about three emails a month supposedly coming from PayPal telling me various storys about my account!
So I thought lets talk to PayPal about it, and surprise suprise I can find no way of checking them out and there does not seem to be any fraud reporting tools on the PayPal site it convinces me that Paypal do not care if you are being ripped off, so I will NEVER again attempt to open an account with them bunch of shysters so now I only deal with traders who accept personal cheques its much safer and cheaper for all concerned.
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot. |

This happened to me sort off. I bought a jacket off ebay for £14 the money came out of my account but then paypal paid £14 back into my account twice, my bank account not my paypal account, so does that mean the person lost £28 because they never got in touch? I feel guilty now.

Love this thread! Its such a good read lol, i mean bitching about paypal is way too fun...dont get me wrong, I do feel for all those ppl who have lost out, trust me Im one of them!
I've had to recently close down my PayPal acc. cause I was bout to get shafted with a claim that they didnt receive a phone; fat chance with it being special del...better this than anything cause I'll be damned if Im getting screwed! (Happend before even tho I used Special Del)...anyway paypal the *use ur imagination* will undoubtedly give a refund and not give a toss bout the phone..so I'll be phone-less & £220 out!
Closing down my eBay account too now, just cant be arsed with it, such a hassle... feels like I lose more than I make lately! Have been trying to close it for 3 days but the international assholes wont do it straight away for some stupid reason - if anyone knows why please let me know! Cheers!
Anyway solving all problems with these shitty scamming buyers is: Get the persons address, take a few 'huge-hulk-built-like-arnold' lads with ya and pay them a 'nice' visit 
Anyway thats my bitch about it, sorry bout the long read!
