"If you see a charge on your card or bank statement for a digital purchase on Google Play that you didn't make, you can report the charges to our support team within 120 days of the transaction."
You see PayPal because the app or site uses PayPal to process payments but the unauthorized transaction occurred while linked to Google Play account so contact them. GP will contact PayPal in the course of their investigation.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

They are stipulating you can only return items by UPS and DHL which is as expensive as the products you have purchased. They sent by post but make you use a service which is too expensive.
DON'T BUY FROM THEM THEIR PRODUCTS ARE NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE
