    i know an online friend.. he was new to exchanging n in ignorance he exchange like 50 eg for a few more paypal and he bought something out of that money.. now next day he saw the charge back n as his ac only had that PayPal that he exchanged it started showing negative balance because of charge back:D

    he swore no to do exchanges anymore, but the fact remains that his ac is showing a negative balance and he isn't doing much online, so he told me that he don't think he can reimburse that money back to paypal. and paypal sends him an automated mail reminders to upload funds to remove his ac limits :D

    now he verified his ac using a vcc and i don't think he has put correct info abt his address n all in paypal.. so i was just wondering what can paypal do abt such a situation.. ok this is a small amt.. but what if someone scams paypal like this .. say 50 k or even a BIGGER ONE ?

    so what i am curious to know is that wha t can paypal do abt such a situation ? :confused:

    I doubt Paypal will care much about that since it's a small amount.But if it was 50K,they'll take legal actions , I guess..After all,that's just my guess,I've no experience on this.

    It was in their TOS that you cannot maintain negative balance, you agreed to their TOS when you signed up so they have the rights against you in court if they chose to.

    paypal will find you and hunt you down and then drag you to court for -ve balance lolololol..... and then finally they will wack you good with a metal rod and at the end they will take away your computer so that you cant get online again to use paypal..... :D lolololol..... just jokingg.... all paypal will do is annoy you constantly by sending you email to upload fund.... that is all...

    For a small amount like this, I doubt it very much they will do anything.
    However I'm sure he will need their service in the future ;)

    On that note... Its probably better just to pay it back as he might need it again sometime.

    dont worry, paypal will never take any legal action if your not from USA... because there are peoples who have -ive balance over 1000 and yet nothing happen to them... i never heard a case of paypal nail down someone to fill up there -ive...
