It’s pretty easy for a scammer to get your money from you via paypal with no recourse. Person claiming to be selling an item for x dollars. You purchase item. They get money. They disappear. No item. Paypal: “oh well!”
Wouldn’t you use PayPal as a digital wallet for you credit cards & reverse fraudulent charges through your credit card company?
Now if you link an actual bank account to PayPal, pay with that bank account, and get scammed, then that’s your actual money spent, and no shit that’s harder to reverse.
You’d probably have to refer to your bank, and they may not do it.
Well that’s how money transaction works. The only way for you to have any recourse in this situation is something that can enforce laws. Or avoiding the situation all together through a reputable escrow.
