I'm coming in this thread late- I sort of skimmed over some of the posts so if I repeat something sorry.

I know what ya'll are going through- I was taken about a year ago by a mom on this board. Never did receive a paypal refund or my dipes
Then recently again with a trade.


Jamie- You said you sent paypal to her "other" email address. This may sound stupid but did you check to see if that email address had a registered account? I've accidently sent money before to an email address that didn't exsist.

Also- I would definalty file a fraud complaint with ebay and contact your state's attorney's office. I think I read that you were trying to find her Address. Paypal should have it. I would call them on the phone and request that information.
888-221-1161. If you are successful at obtaining her address- Then I would send her a ceritified letter and let her know you will be contacting her local.police department and or states attorneys office.

Hope you get your money back or your diapers!

Getting your money back

I haven't been around here long, but I've been around ebay enough to get ripped off using PayPal as both buyer and a seller.
When the buyer files a complaint, if the seller has any money in their account, the money is removed. PayPal hangs onto the money until the complaint is resolved. For amounts over $250.00, the seller needs to provide a signature confirmation of delivery.
If the seller already took the money out of her account, your won't be getting your money back from PayPal. They don't try any other recourse other than looking to see that there is no money in sellers PayPal account. You can still file with eBay and get back all but $25.00 in that case.
A hard learned lesson from using PayPal as a buyer - always use money from a credit card. Not your PayPal funds or your checking account. You can file a chargeback with the credit card company if PayPal does not get your money back.
Good Luck.

Usually it's because they only have a Personal account and not a Premier account that accepts CCs.

We also got taken about 2 years ago on eBay. We bought a jogging stroller (got it for about half price) and the guy "sent" it another address... in California... we live in Texas. Basically both Paypal and eBay did nothing because he showed the he shipped it. Even though it wasn't to OUR address which was the registered and confirmed address with both eBay and Paypal. He dragged it out long enough about shipping that we didn't file with Paypal until the 30 days had pasted. That's when I learned the 30 days lesson, never wait!

Good luck, I hope you get your money back soon!

Yea!!!!! I think she probably thought she was safe, scamming some faceless victim on ebay. Now that it's clear it's real world stealing, and YOU KNOW WHO SHE IS, I hope she pays up!

I am seriously going to lose it with this lady
The phonecall worked , she replied to my email BUT look what she told me:
Jamie,
I had gone to refund you along with the others, but you had already reversed the payment. I cannot refund you after that fact. The reversal shows pending to your account

What is she talking about? I did not reverse anything! I filed with paypal , same as the others who got refunded did.Is this anything like when she couldn't "find" in her paypal that I had paid
