hi. any help would be much highly appreciated. can I get the money back? what will happen if I report the thread wherein we did an exchange? what will happen if they knew it was for paypal-egold exchange? really need help pls... thank you.
Without a doubt Paypal will ban both users, they will keep ALL funds - as you have breached their terms and conditions.
this actually just happened to me. a buyer won my egold auction & paid by paypal. within hours of me transferring the egold, the buyer opened a claim. Then, they closed the claim but somehow made the payment "unauthorized." my account is limited (but not banned) and for all appearances, the buyer got his money back. Freakin scammer. I hope paypal banned him.
they will only "punish" the e-gold seller, the other one will get back his money. this is what i experienced on my own.
I have experience for this situation..Exchange e-currency with paypal is breaking paypal rules.. That why you never see ecurrency exchanger have paypal on thier list..
There is no "legit" PP-egold (or PP-anything) exchanger out there because exchanging ecurrencies is against PP TOS and their "biz" would be shut down within shortest time.
Same with hellfire81, You must forget it. You cant get money back. Just looking for trusted and have good reputation exchanger before you do an exchange. Cheers.
You should forget about that money and don't do such thing in future because currency exchange is not allowed by PP and if you file a dispute, you'll have to give details about transaction which might lead to whole account ban.
