Unable to dispute or cancel pending payment

I bought an item from ebay that was from a compromised account. Ebay messaged me to tell me about this and said if I had already paid I should open a claim through paypal. Paypal says :

This transaction cannot be disputed at this time. This is usually because the transaction has not yet been completed. If this is a completed transaction, please double check that the Transaction ID you selected refers to a payment that you sent.

 

The purchase is unclaimed but I cannot cancel it anywhere. Help would be appreciated because ebay says they can't open a claim either.

IF IT IS UNCLAIMED,IT COMES BACK TO YOU AFTER 30 DAYS.

There seem to be a  way to cancel the payment by the sender,someone may enlighten us

Just kind of worried that after 30 days if the seller does something like claim it I might be too late for other easier options to get my money back.
