Dear Maneesh

We were recently notified that one of your buyers used an

following PayPal transaction has been reversed, and the funds
have been debited from your account:

Transaction ID: ***********
Transaction Date: 27 Mar. 2006

Buyer's Name: Jade Alvey

To help in our investigation, please reply with the following
information within seven calendar days:

1. The purchased item and the value of the item.
2. The name and address given to you by the buyer.
3. Whether or not the item has been dispatched. (If you have
not yet sent the item, do not dispatch it.)
4. If you have already sent the item, please provide the name
of the delivery provider, date of dispatch, and tracking number,
so that PayPal can verify the postage and delivery.(For
transactions of $250.00 USD or more, you must provide a proof-of-receipt
in the form of a signature from the buyer.)
5. Details of any other payments you sent or received that were
related to the above transaction.
6. Your day and evening phone numbers.

We would like to obtain as much information as possible about
the above transaction, including any email correspondence between
you and the buyer, in order to expedite this investigation.
Solving potentially fraudulent cases helps us continue to offer

Munch similar thing happened to me ... now i dont touch paypal with a stick

They can take money from your account any time they like. I sold somthing once and the lass claimed she never rec'd it, filed a claim and paypal just took the money from my account!

Turned out her flat mate had it, i never got my money back

i personally think if paypal let someone whos a fraud exploit there system they should take responsiblity and fund the money themselves, after all it is the security or lack of it that has given a person the ability to fraudulently use it

someone should take them to court

From: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=xpt/seller/ChargebackRisk-outside

PayPal reserves the right not to dispute a chargeback even if the seller has provided some evidence, particularly if PayPal believes the dispute is not likely to be successful.

you're fucked chief.

We are contacting you to remind you that: on Mar 23 2006 our Account Review Team identified some unusual activity in your account, one or more attempts to log in to your PayPal account from a foreign IP address.

In accordance with PayPal's User Agreement and to ensure that your account has not been compromised, access to your account was limited. Your account access will remain limited until this issue has been resolved. To secure your account and quickly restore full access, we may require some additional information from you.

To securely confirm your PayPal information please go directly to https://www.paypal.com/ log in to your PayPal account and perform the steps necessary to restore your account access as soon as possible or click on the link bellow:


To continue your verification procedure click here


I am allready verified so they shouldn't be asking me to verify again. Also they spelt below wrong.

When I hover over the link they sent me it says http://www.rl-paypal.com

that website was there on the day I got the email but now it doesn't work! I clicked on the link but I didn't fill in the details they wanted as the address wasn't paypal.com

Its happened to me before.
Sent the item out then paypal decided to take the money back.
I cancelled all my direct debits with them and removed all card details.
Paypal is really just a license for paypal to print money.
