Suing PayPal

Has anyone sued paypal for working against you for a chargeback? <removed>, a convicted credit card fraud criminal who ebay banned is doing chargebacks through paypal. Paypal ignores my proof like positive feedback left by buyer, emails from the buyer that he is happy with purchase and proof of delivery. I am not the only person he is doing this to. As far am I am concerned Paypal is an accomplice to this fraud. I have no choice but to hire a lawyer and sue paypal for there lack of protection encouraging criminal activity.

I see your point but when I ask Paypal the reason for the chargeback they say they don't know. The chargeback is for credit due but no reason why the credit is due. The positive feedback he left should be enough proof that no credit is due plus he didn't file any dispute on ebay.

PayPal will reimburse for chargeback but you must comply with PayPal requirements as it listed previously.

If you did not ship to the buyer's PayPal address then you have no PayPal protection.

 

This issue is with PayPal buyer protection as PayPal is the payment processor.  Nothing with ebay is relevant to this case.

I used the ebay shipping link that is on my ebay's items sold page. That does go through paypal with the shipping address already there so I should be good right? It shows on my paypal activity page as shipping label shipped. Wouldn't his credit card bank have to give a reason for a chargeback other than just asking for it?

A buyer can use 2 separate  shipping addresses.  What the buyer uses as an eBay address may not be the buyer's PayPal address.  That's why it is important to verify the buyer's PayPal address.   It's on the PayPal transaction detail page.  Since PayPal processes the payment, PayPal policies matter.

It sounds like the chargeback is not whether he delivered the goods,it is something else -credit due?

there must be a reference to amount and date and name of the buyer,cant you find it in your record,did you promise a refund?

or is he complaining he returned the item and you did not refund him?

yo can pull his contact information on Ebay and give him a call?

On no, this guy is a convicted credit card fraud criminal. He scam's people. Ebay banned him and closed his account. I have been in touch with other victims. He would buy coins and return empty envelopes and sometimes ask sellers to file fraudulent postal insurance claims. I am not the only victim of this new chargeback fraud. 

Since Paypal has no idea why a credit would be due I don't understand why my Paypal shipping label proof of delivery is not enough for Paypal.

if proof of delivery does not help you win the case,then the complaint is about something else.

it is either unauthorised transaction or item not as described.

It's a mystery, Paypal doesn't know or won't tell me. Before he was suspended from ebay for suspicious activity he left Pos feedback for it. I wish I could deal with his bank directly to find out what type of scam he is pulling. Paypal doesn't take into consideration all the people he scammed on ebay before suspension.

It's not about the other party.  The credit card processor doesn't look at the other party's history; it's only about the one specific purchase by the credit card holder.

It's about the details of your sale.  Those details have not yet been disclosed.

Is there a reason details are not disclosed when they can take my money from me? I feel like I'm being robbed.
