Ok this story may be a little long but if you could bare with me and maybe add some feedback that would rock. Once upon a time I (OxygenFad) put a sound card up for sale on ebay. It was a recording soundcard. It sold for $180 US ($250 Canadian). I don't have a paypal account. So I used my friends. Later on in the week my friend calls me and lets me know that his Pay Pal account has received the money. That night we meet up and he gives me money. 2 days later (On my birthday actually) my friend calls to inform me that paypal deducted $180 US from his credit card because the scumfuck I sold the soundcard too used a fraudulent credit card. Now after spending all the money the day I received it (naturally) am short one midiman 2044 and owe my friend $250.00. I don't get it. Is this not PayPals fault ??? I wasn't the one that approved the credit card yet I get dinged by the multi million dollar fuckheads who are paypal. What really got me peeved was the email they sent. TEMPLATE. Anyway I'm pretty stressed out about all this cause I DON'T HAVE MONEY. *Get a job!!!yar har har* The re I said it, anyone have any advice it would be much appreciated. Thanks ! (sorry for the spaces ... notepad) |

This is what I got from Paypal: Dear Georgio Paulin (My friend whos account I was using), We have conducted a review of a particular payment you have received. In this instance returning the funds to the sender was determined to be the appropriate action, and we have completed a reversal of the payment. The funds from the following transaction have been debited from your account: Transaction Date: Sep 5, 2003 05:55:16 Transaction Amount: $180.00 Buyer's Email: saldana_tx@yahoo.com If you have questions regarding this reversed transaction, please contact us using the link below: https://www.paypal.com/wf/f=ap_hist We appreciate your patience during our investigation. Thank you, PayPal Account Review Department |

yer i've heard other stories like these. paypal are fuckin dodgy cunts. |

well i wouldn't blame it entirely on paypal.. the buyer is actually the "guilty" one, but paypal SHOULD do some sort of check on credit cards. i guess the best thing to do (in the future) would be to wait for some confirmation or something before shipping. have you tried contacting the buyer to see if it was just a mix-up/incorrectly entered credit card number number? |

There's probably something in that 'user end liscence agreement' or whatever you click the 'I agree to the terms' checkbox that makes it so you can't do shit about the whole problem. Too bad. |

I think website said it best: "Having investigated the various alternatives, we have concluded that it is neither worth the time, the money, nor the effort to go through the trouble of setting up to accept credit card payments online, as we refuse to let the short bus riding fucktards at PayPal have access to any of our precious bank account information." |

that is verry bad news man. the thing i fearr is, that it will be in small prrint and you will have no option but to pay. therre could be no way out of it. but i'd hold off paying forr as long as you can. |

i've heard of all sorts of stories like this; know of people that have been screwed over huge amounts. i've used them twice for small $5 transactions. each time paypal goes HURR YOUR CREDIT CARD IS INVALID, then i get a call from my bank 5 seconds (heh, it's freaky, i'm being watched!) later saying paypal didn't like my card number, so it nicely cancelled my card; and would i like to be sent a new card? do not advise using. paypal are retards. |

i've never had a problem with PayPal, and hope I never do. I think i'm gonna stop recieving PayPal payments from ebay though, cheque seems safer. |

sue the buyer of course. |

I just started a Paypal account so I have no previous experience with them. I do know you choose whether or not your account can accept credit cards or not. If it does accept credit cards you have to pay a "processing fee". I choose not to deal with the problems credit cards can cause, or the fees, so I use the free alternative. No problems yet. |

Mama didn't raise no fool but I'm giving PayPal my credit card details on Friday. I read some on it. If you write in PayPal in a search engine, PayPal itself doesn't come up for several pages. It comes up with all these PayPalSucks.com sites. Anyway, I applied for a second visa card which will debit money out of a second account I started then. And then, once I have bought my items off eBay with the Paypal, I will cancel the account and very little wrong could happen. The most I could lose is $AU100, because that's all I put in the second account. I bought from ebay in America, if you'd like to know, the soundtrack to Kids for 11 cents, the soundtrack to Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas for about one dollar, a Dinosaur Jnr. album for about two dollars and that's it. I'll buy some DVDs next, I guess, I don't know. I wanted to get the soundtrack for Gummo but all these people kept bidding on it and the dick who bought it paid about US eight dollars over retail price. I found out where I can it new now, this... this is a shitty post but i will post it anyway. |

Ok so after X ammount of days Ebay tells me to use SQUARE TRADE. Anyway I got this .... Hello Mr. Mcleod, It has been 14 days since you filed your case. Generally a respondent who doesn't respond within 14 days is not likely to respond. Unless we hear from the respondent, we won't send you further notice about this case. If you have resolved the problem, please close the case. So basiclly "Your fucked and we hate you" >>>more .... |

So a POWER SELLER gets in contact with me that week and warns me that the guy I dealt with was a fraud (a little too late lol) and reccomends I call the ebay 1-800 number (which is impossable to find on EBAYS site...) , so I did. After waiting about 30 minutes on the phone someone who doesn't speak english answers and about after 30 minutes she tells me how to E-MAIL (!!!) ebay and complain. SOOOOOOOO I email ebay only to get this a few days later ... >>>next |

Thank you for writing eBay's SafeHarbor Department to notify us that you have been sent an item to a buyer but have not received payment for it. We understand your concern about this situation and will review your report as soon as possible. This is usually within 24 hours. In the meantime, there are two steps that you may take to try to resolve this situation with your trading partner. First, we recommend you contact your buyer directly. You can request your buyer's contact information at the following web address: http://cgi3.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?MemberSearchShow# ContactInfo Second, we recommend that you consider using SquareTrade, which is an online dispute resolution service. Because we understand that these types of situations can be difficult, we have partnered with SquareTrade to help our members resolve them. To learn more about SquareTrade please go to the following web address: http://pages.ebay.com/services/buyandsell/disputeres.html If you are unable to resolve things with your buyer, you may want to consider a few more options. First, you can use the Non-paying Bidder Program to report the bidder and determine if you qualify for a Final Value Fee (FVF) credit. You can read more about this process at the following web address: http://pages.ebay.com/help/community/npb.html When you file for a FVF credit, the buyer's account is marked and dealt with accordingly. Filing for the FVF credit allows eBay to track and suspend buyers that do not follow through with their bidding obligations. You can access the FVF page by clicking on eBay's "site map" located at the top of any eBay page, and then by clicking on the "request a final value fee credit" link located in the middle column, under "Services." For your convenience, I've included the URL to file for that credit: http://pages.ebay.com/services/buyandsell/finalfee.html In certain cases, you might want to contact the local law enforcement in your area as well as where the |

From there I send them back an e-mail. and get this shit ... Hello, Thank you for writing to us about this situation. I appreciate your email. So that I can fully investigate this situation, can you please send me the email that you received from your payment service stating that this user paid you with fraudulent funds, with the full email headers? The full header is extremely important, as we cannot take any kind of action without it. A header will look like a string of "nonsense" characters, similar to the example I have pasted for you below. You can find this by using the "properties" function of your email program. Return-Path: Received: from mail-pacbell.net (mail-gw5.pacbell.net [206.13.28.23]) by ixmail9.ix.netcom.com (8.8.7-s-4/8.8.7/(NETCOM v1.01)) with ESMTP id; for -0800 (PST) From: Received: from 207.214.211.69 (ppp-207-214-211-69.sntc01.pacbell.net [207.214.211.69]) by mail- gw5.pacbell.net (8.8.8/8.7.1) with SMTP id GAA15251; Mon, 22 Mar 1999 06:34:28 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <36F5D668@pacbell.net> Date: Mon, 22 Mar 1999 06:34:32 +0100 Reply-To: X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.03-PBI-N303 (Macintosh; I; 68K) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Subject: TITLE OF EMAIL Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit As soon I have received this information, I will be able to further investigate your situation. In the meantime, here is some information that may help you resolve this situation. And then the "In the mean time" bullshit is a copy and paste of what I posted above!!! FUCK EBAY. FUCK PAYPAL. I fucking hate them : ( Imagine if a doctor told you that you had cancer but it was a template?!?!?! "Dear Mr/Mrs _____. We are sorry to inform you that you have ______ cancer. ______ cancer is uncurable. We regret this situation and will contact |

Ah, ha. Moscow? I searched for his name through Yahoo and he made a post (just press control+F and find his name). Maybe you could use WHOIS if you find out he has a site of some sort because they often have, rather then the host's adress, the adress of the domain owner, or something. |

I don't know what you could do. Probably nothing. Maybe you could make the money back by doing what he did. Anyway, I haven't given PayPal my credit card yet because the card hasn't come through. How long does it take them to verify the card because I'm supposed to buy these cds within seven days, I think. |
