Ok, new to sending money via pay pal. I just got scammed for some sneakers from a scammer on instagram. It seems like i can't file a dispute because of the way I sent the money. 

 

There should be some "warning messages" or "caution screens" when you send $$ this way stating that you can't get your money back once you send it. 

 

I thought Pay pal was secure is why I trusted to send via pay pal. I was told this was the best. 

 

I got scammed. The sneaker dealer deleted their account and won't return my messages. 

 

Be warned people. There are some low down people out here.
