    everything is ok until i got messages from paypal and here is one of the message :

    Dear ..........,
    
    One of the benefits of using PayPal is that we make every effort to alert
    you to potentially problematic transactions. Our goal is to help you make
    sound business decisions.
    
    A review of recent transactions indicates that you may have received an
    unauthorized payment. This means that the PayPal account holder may not
    have authorized the payment you received.
    
    We would like to learn more about this transaction. Please log in to your
    PayPal account and provide some information.
    
    We strongly advise that you not ship the item until our investigation is
    complete. If you have already shipped the item, please log in and let us
    know where you shipped it.
    
    We have placed a temporary hold on the funds until the investigation is
    complete.

    he used a stolen paypal. you arent going to get to keep that money. try contacting ePassporte and see if they can cancel the card, tell them it was stolen from you

    That doesn't mean he used a stolen paypal, simply means he said it was unauthorized and is doing a chargeback.

    Sorry about thsi guy, has happened to me before :(

    This is common way for hacker to gain ...... with the Paypal account.
    Echoes of past examples , thankfully , now are designated as Freebies , to be less than $5 (should be less than $10 USD I.M.O.)

    I think you are wrong hhyosong22,

    scammer Alert!!! must be in Buy, Sell or Trade forum

    because all members trade here and maynot see general forum

    so if it were here, they wouldn`t trade with scammers

    Maybe what you say is correct but it belongs to General Chat folder and not B/S/T

    Maybe it should ... I was just trying to say he'll get an infraction for posting in the wrong section.


    Thanks for clearing this up!

    When you do big deals with someone you should use forum search option to see if there is scam alerts or something else.

    Thanks for letting us know. it has happened to me 2-3 times! This is the risk that the sellers need to take, sadly.. Paypal doesnt have any seller protection.

    IMHO this belongs in buy sell trade. I only use DP spy and I only watch the BST folders. If this wasn't in this section I'd never know.

    Rules are, it belongs in General Chat. As far as the scam, trading money is always risky and you should know by now the risk. You also dealt with someone who has been only on DP for less than a month. Consider this a $30 life lesson and remember, when dealing in risky questionable trades, you are responsible for what happens.

    *Thinking DP should ban money trading*

    I see the EXACT same copy of this thread EVERY week here on DP. anyone else notice this? I have only gotten this email from paypal once, but can resite it completely becuase of threads like this. dude, there are scammers out there, and there going to scam you. you may losse $5 or $10 bucks every once and awile, but your going to have to deal with it. leave a bad itrader, and contact the mods. dont post a thread. (or atleast thats what i think)

    When this happened to me not to long ago, I just blogged all about it, gave him a neg itrader, won my paypal dispute and now I will wait a good month before I update my blog. Besides now I will rank like number 1 for his name :)

    To me well worth the $27
