    hi,

    paypal help needed...

    I paid $800 to a guy for macbook pro...laptop
    I knew his account was unverified..but I thought he was true guy and hence I did that payment..

    I didn't receive that macbook pro laptop !
    HE WAS A SCAMMER !
    I filed a dispute..via paypal buyer dispute programme...resolution center
    he answered he provided me dhl wrong/invalid tracking number...

    Now I want to know whether I am going to get my money back or not ?

    What happens if he don't have any money in his account ?
    What will happen if he already spent that money by sending to other people or already paid online for shopping....

    Am I safe...
    Will I get my money back..

    please do reply

    thanks

    try calling paypal at +18882211161 via skype...its free... In your case if the scammer has the money still in his account, you shall inform Paypal ASAP and they will reverse the payment back into your account.

    But well if he is a scammer, then I don't think he would still have it there.

    Try your luck..All the best..

    i paid him on December 25,2009 and I raised a dispute on Jan 2 ..2010,,,

    he provided a wrong/invalid tracking number...and the case is in the hand of paypal and still being reviewed by paypal...

    I am 100 % sure that he don't have any money in his paypal
    I am 100 % sure, he has already spent that money...or sent to someone else...

    if he don't have money in his account..and if I win the dispute....will i get my money...
    Will paypal pay me...

    Call your credit card provider and cause a chargeback, if you did not pay by credit card, its gone

    Explain your story, and invalid tracking number, they'll reverse transaction, and hell ow paypal the money, and ull have yours back

    If he have no money in his/her PayPal then you will not get money from PayPal even you win the case. PayPal will only recover amount which he left in PayPal.

    I think this simple logic might be of some help!

    His account is unverified. So there will be withdrawal limits on his account. Pray that by the time you sent money his new month had not begun. If that did not happen, you will surely have $300 safe and there is a high probability that you may get the total amount too! Do not worry, you can win it back or earn it back! Stay confident.
