<p>[QUOTE="Peter T Davis, post: 920, member: 1"]Paypal will get your money back for you against an honest seller, or at least one who tries. If you've been ripped off by a complete fraudster, you're on your own. Paypal will take weeks to rule on a complaint, and they will inform the seller/fraudster in advance. This gives time for the true fraudster to clean out their account, close their bank account and credit card and leave town. When Paypal finally get around to trying to recover your money, there's nothing there. So, you'll get an email from them saying that you win, but they can't do anything because there's no money in the account. If you file a charge back with your credit card you used to fund the Paypal transfer, they will debit your account, or bank, for the full amount of the charge back. If your account is empty, and there's no bank account they'll freeze your Paypal account and report you to a credit agency as if YOU were the fraudster.</p><p><br /></p><p>How's that for protection?</p><p><br /></p><p>I say, don't use Paypal unless it's someone you know, or it's money you can afford to lose.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
