    Hi everyone. I sent PayPal money to an email address and the money is gone from my account. However, I sent the money to the wrong email address and as it turns out, the person does not need the money anymore anyway. So how can I get this money back? Right now it's just lingering: I don't have it and neither does the intended recipient.

    Thanks for your help in advance. :)

    Emailing paypal support and letting them know about this should help though I have never read about such incident before .
