Hey I recently sent the person my account info and they sent me 200 bucks via paypal. Well then they opened a claim and took there money back in paypal. I used my SQA and got the acct back but now my paypal is negative money because I used it after they sent it. I just want the money and to give them the account. I have all the trading details via PM on this site anyway I can fight them takin the money back?

I think for paypal to get the money for you you'd need a screenshot of him giving you his paypal email so they know it's him, although that's a small chance. Otherwise I think it's pretty hopeless because to paypal it could be anyone signed up to this forum and sending PMs to each other. My opinion anyway, hope you get the money back. Next time get them to send it to you $50 at a time.

Tell Paypal to p**s off and take you to court.

They won't . Now you scammed the scammer, not intentionally of course, but Paypal, contrary to what they say, will NOT return his funds until they get theirs.

Just let it go and move on. Any funds you redirect to paypal will go towards that debt, which you were being scammed for anyway. Paypal does NOT protect its people in any way,shape or form, so again, to hell with em, enjoy the cash

Also, send me the info about the person you were doing a deal with

They did return his funds though. They opened an investigation and said I had 14 days to respond. I didn't respond yesterday and then today I looked and it said it went from an investigation to a claim and the claim was resolved and now his money is returned. So I didn't do anything and they closed the case? How do I go about re-opening that or w/e then?

Tbh by ringing them i believe all your gonna recieve is a big wall of text they will read out claiming that you sold virtual items and this is against there tos or someones tos so basically your screwed stop bugging us.

Only way you could get round it is to claim it was a parcel but then you dont have proof of postage, but you could try.

Really I dont think that is against Paypal's TOS. I know it's against Blizzards. There has to be someway because I was always told that if they claim it as being unauthorized that you just have to prove they know it was authorized because then they are lying.
