   My son changed his email address so when I sent him money through PayPal he was unable to receive it. I’m not sure why but he cannot use that email & simply asked me to send it to new email address… why won’t PayPal do this for me?? Obviously the funds were never recovered yet PayPal refuses to either send it to his new email or SIMPLY PUT IT BACK INTO MY BANK, what is the problem & how can get them to wake up?? This has been probably 5 months already… I am so very upset about this & I honestly feel they are stealing my money because WHY NOT GIVE IT BACK TO ME THE SENDER WHO HAS BEEN WITH THEM FOR PROBABLY 7-8 YEARS NOW!!!!! RUDE ONE PAYPAL

   I sold a wheelchair on June 16 and the person failed to pay for the wheelchair which I still have. EBay had the gall to charge PayPal $78 and I didn’t see you sent of it. I want to put this into a case dispute at this time as eBay is ripping people off right and left. Please let me know as soon as possible !since I didn’t receive a sense from this wheelchair because the guy didn’t pay for it then why should eBay receive almost $80?

   I just checked my bank statement that showed the following:
   Pay pal e-check GPS City Dimitriy Bobrov in the amount of 549.99 that I did not authorize or have any knowledge of. I contacted my bank and disputed the transaction. I also contacted Pay pal-I haven’t used it in years and was told there is no transaction on the account. Can someone tell me how this happened so I can try and prevent this in the future

   I just put my vehicale up for sale on a popular site & within a couple hours I got a email stating the person was very much interested in purchasing my vehicle and didnt need to look at it or want information about it. The person stated that they can only purchase the vehicale through Pay Pal & they didnt have access to the internet. I was very lucky because if I didnt forward the emails to my family member I would have believed the spoof email notification. I will be very careful about how I buy & sell stuff online from now on.

   Here is another example;
   You place a add in a well known website autotrader and start to receive emails after emails from the same person, never call to get details about the item, insisting that you open a account with Pay Pal. Even if he mention that he really want the car;

   Thanks for the prompt response,the price is okay by me,I am ready to buying it now for Birthday gift for my Dad and i am at sea at the moment as i am a marine engineer and due to the nature of my work, phone calls making and visiting of website are restricted but i squeezed out time to check this advert and send you an email regarding it. I really want the car to be a surprise for Dad so i wont let him know anything about the car until it gets delivered to him,i am sure he will be more than happy with the car.

   I insisted on PayPal because i don’t have access to my bank account online as i don’t have internet banking, but i can pay from my PayPal account, as i have my bank a/c attached to it, i will need you to give me your PayPal email address and the price so i can make the payments asap for the car and pls if you don’t have paypal account yet, it is very easy to set up, go to WWW.PayPal.com and get it set up, after you have set it up i will only need the e-mail address you use for registration with PayPal so as to put the money through. I have a pick up agent that will come and pick the car up after i have made the payments.
   Cheers…

   You could read similar stories over and over again, Pay pal is often used for electronic fraud, that it!

   EYF, this is a BLATANT scam. Whatever you do, don’t ship the ring or do anything. PayPal *NEVER* “holds funds for tracking information”. I had someone from Nigeria try and get me with the same thing. They send you a very official looking page but it’s fake. Also, because it’s international, you can’t do anything once you ship the package.

   Money sent to your email address linked with PayPal will ALWAYS show up in your list. If it didn’t show, it’s either a scam or they didn’t pay yet.

   Forward that email to: spoof@paypal.com

   Hi, I just have a question about using PayPal as a seller. I have recently posted a wedding and engagement ring set online and was contacted by a buyer in Beijing china. He sent the funds to my PayPal account and I received notice via email that the funds have been received and will be released as soon as I send the tracking info, etc… My question is, on my PayPal account there is no notification of payment pending or anything like that. Also, I cannot tell if the address is legit. Here it is:
   Chuan Mei da xue, Dingfuzhuang,Chaoyang District,
   City: Beijing,
   State: Beijing,
   Zip code: 100024
   Country: P.R. China

   If anyone has some insight it would be greatly appreciated!! :)

   sorry, so my question is, once the buyer makes the payment to my paypal account and I have received email confirmation of this (before I have sent the item), would anything show up on my account about payment pending?

    For those concerned, PapPal is not a scam. It is a very secure, maybe the most secure method to send and receive money online. The problem is, PayPal is SO secure that scammers will send spoof emails out to unsuspecting (often) random people as a means to gain control of their account and/or receive funds that they do not deserve. I have been scammed on e-bay one time. I bought a box of ram and it was a good deal, except none of the ram worked and much of the ram was much older (way out of date and unusable). I blocked the payment and PayPal had a collection agency contact me to collect the funds. When I informed them that I received a box of junk for $75, they canceled the collection agency situation and reinstated my account. Since if they do not know the situation, as per any bank in North America, they will react to a situation based on the information that they have available to them. Keep in mind, I have been using PayPal for at least 12 years and have only had a single situation which was rectified quickly once they were informed of the situation.
    Again, keep in mind that scammers will attempt to scam you. When we see this happening, this suggests that PayPal or the bank that you are supposedly receiving the spoof email from is too secure for these bags of garbage to hack so the easiest solution is to trick the end user.

    I tried injecting some javascript on your paypal information here but it looks like it didn’t work. It was my hope that I could start adding some links but no luck :)

    Problem with these Paypal scams is that the scammers don’t even check to see if the person they are scamming even has a Paypal account. I get tons of these scam e-mails, and I don’t even have a Paypal account.
14. Benita Jemison says:

    To me, Pay Pal is a scam! I sold a laptop on EBAY (five years ago) and after Pay Pal notified me of instant payment and told me that the funds were available, I shipped the laptop to the seller. Within a week, Pay Pal emailed me to tell me that the transaction was fraudulent and they attempted to withdraw 800 from my bank account. Needless to say, my merchandise had been shipped already. I put a stop payment on Pay Pal with my bank. I told them that this was their mistake….releasing funds and then coming back a week later asking for the money back. I do not owe them anything…where is my laptop?

    A month ago (after five years) Pay Pal emailed me to tell me that my account is limited until I pay the $800 back..,guess what? I am NOT paying Pay Pal anything…get my laptop back!!! My attorney and I are filing a case in Small Claims Court. PAY PAL IS A JOKE!

    Unfortunately one of my relatives have also been victim of such a scam. But other way around, his system’s IP was used to send such mail. How could this be possible. He uses a 3G USB datta card from a telecom service provider. One of the mails were found to be from the IP addressed during the period it was dynamically assigned to his data card.

    how to legally prove that it was a con-job by someone else. His laptop, that he was using has also been confiscated by legal authorities.

    Want to know paypal user details!!

    Why U send mail into server, directly send a e-mail into paypal database and trace all account details with CC and bank account no..

    Everyone use this method, just U have a valid Email ID and a valid Paypal Account (No limitation).

    First,

    ** log into your paypal e-mail account and send a e-mail to “Paypal Database”.

    In subject line type”0yahpE5752paypaldatabase details”

    Then type exactly 14 lines as…

    2> charset=US-ascii%%default

    3> address000%% confermation eas57520yahp. yahoo.com (because paypal store all data into Yahoo with

    .txt/html/doc format)

    4> paypal%%default::00remvalue defaultsp0054ed==null-32f24!!(This is how you confuse the yahoomail mailerbot)

    5> haznull09%%”http://paypal.com”&&%%float;

    6> Your primary paypal ID;Password(like:-“abcd@gmail.com”;”12345″)/(To retrieve information from PayPal and check validation)

    7> start(retrieve-database>0)

    8> Your E-mail ID & Password(for get all account details)
