Paypal does a damn shit about it because its simply virtual goods which is not in the policy of Paypal so its your own fault. they can not check if its true or not so you are sack-assed

I've gotten the money back a several times from people who try to chargeback virtual goods:



It's not too hard.

It's not too hard if you have Business Paypal account with hundreds of transactions per month. Otherwise use Skrill. As it was stated in their letter I recently got, they don't resolve disputes at all and don't review scam reports

I have a question that relates to this. I sold to someone buying gold on forums. It was pretty unofficial so I thought it might just be someone trying to get a mount. He gave me an email and said never mind not that one, my card is maxed (Or something along those lines) and gave me a different one. A couple weeks later, after knowing I got my money and wasn't scammed and the entire thing went over well I asked if he wanted to buy more. He gave me a new different email and said never mind not that one and gave me a new email. I didn't think much of it at the time, but now that I think about it I'm worried that him using so many different emails he might be using stolen Paypals. One thing I did to protect myself (I don't know if this really does protect me or not) is request the money to the email instead of him giving me a gift because I know there are so many scams. I'm not sure if I can post the emails he used so I won't. It's been 12 days so far and I still have all the money in my paypal. I guess my question is, does this happen a lot and am I protected if I requested the money instead of receiving a gift? Sorry if this shouldn't be here. I read the rules, but I'm new and just want some help.

And how long do they have to dispute it and how will I be notified?
