Initiate PayPal dispute.

How did you pay? PayPal funds or with a bank card THROUGH PayPal?

NEVER pay using PayPal funds, use a debit card. Your bank/visa have dedicated fraud teams and willl do more for you than PayPal

If u paid with money in your actual PayPal account u only have PayPal to help you. Do you have the guys name and address? If so, contact the police.

How long i have to wait, paypal answer the dispute?

Well I had a dispute recently, initiated with PayPal 30th June, PayPal emailed me the next day telling me my claim was successful.

Give it a day or two.

I got scammed too but got money back through unauthorized account access paypal dispute. I posted here to warn others about the user (who is still "selling accounts") but I got warned and my thread deleted. Complain area only works if you accepted a trade or use elite gold. For some reason this forum doesn't like scammers being called out.

Hi, I too got a post deleted and received a warning for exposing scammer. But to be fair, they can't allow that because every thread would end up the same. It's up to the legit people to use common sense and take precautions. Also most scammers on here are as dumb as fuck anyway, and easy to spot.

Next time buy from trusted seller.
It is always better to prevent then to heal wounds, right?
That is why i hate paypal ... so easy to dispute for virtual goods.

This is why I was trying to warn others, his account looks fairly trustworthy. He had 15/0/0 (possibly fake accounts) he is a premium member, has elite gold and is marked as a middleman. I have the proof too.

You can dispute the money but its hard to get the money back.
If the one is professional you have no chance.
