Hello,

So <removed> runs <removed> I have used them *once* in the past to purchase PUBG for around $15. But these two PayPal purchases claim that I bought two $50 Xbox gift cards, which I did not! They came through today, draining my bank account to $0! I sent a claim to PayPal, but I was reading on the forums where some other people had these same mystery charges on their account from the same company and PayPal said they were authorized.

 

I don't have an extra $100 to pay some scammer. That was my food money for the rest of the month that they stole. What are the chances I will get refunded? How did they manage to charge my account for those two gift cards that I did not purchase?

Hello also i should buy Microsoft Gift Card from this seller <removed> (<removed>) it took me 28,36USD I gave the diput about unauthorized transaction paypal answered me this is not an unauthorized transaction and they have closed the process, but how Is this possible if I did not buy it and paid it, and I also did not get a paypal email about a completed purchase and a payment, what should I do? I have written several times to Paypal, but they always answer me the same thing as to open up a dispute about an unauthorized transaction, but how, if paypal did not recognize an unauthorized transaction, I really do not know what to do next.
