How should I handle virtual online game goods?

Hi!  I have been considering purchasing an online game account from somebody on the internet.  The website has a middle man system so as far as getting my hands on the account I should be good.  My main concern is that the seller takes my money and then claims his account was hacked to the game company and through proof of his credit card purchase gets his account back.  Leaving me scammed with no account and lose money.  If something like this were to happen could I get my money back from Paypal and dispute it?

Thanks!

I recently had a problem with someone taking my money while I was trying to purchase an online game account.

Luckily it wasn't through PP but I would say it's not worth it because of the risk.
