Money back !

I sent money to a guy (£65) and we were doing a game deal. Unfortunately he scammed me and took the money. I sent the money over family and friends option. Is there a way to get it back!?!?

Unfortunately, no. There is no buyer protection on friends and family payments as it is considered a 'gift payment'. You may dispute it with your credit card if that's how you paid but beware that they may potentially deny your claim since it was a 'gift' payment.

 

Always use goods and services payment type when sending money in exchange for goods and services to get buyer protection.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
