paypal payments

[littleone]

Hi, i have not come across this problem with an unregistered seller but i won two items on ebay and she stated on her description that she accepted paypal but she has sent me a message saying her paypal is hacked and that paypal has told her to tell customers that they have to pay by postal order which i find a cheek as you have to pay a charge at the po or bank transfer. What is going on here and i really do need advice as i pay via cc at paypal to protect me. Any advice would be so good.Thanks

1. Paypal would NEVER tell someone to advise buyers to pay via postal order.

2. If her account was hacked and reported she should get access back to it again.

3. Sellers are not allowed to refuse paypal payments, I would certainly not pay with postal order and i would report her to ebay and leave appropriate feedback to warn other buyers.

Hi, thanks for advice, you said exactly as i thought, i have now reported seller . I don't know why a seller would not sort out there paypal if it was hacked before listing items, very odd.
