I'm a member of a photography forum. There is a for sale section where members can sell used photo equipment to each other. The forum is not involved in the transaction, it has a "For Sale" for member to member selling.
Some members are adding 3% to cover PayPal fees. As I understand this is against PayPal policy. What are the possible consequences for the forum owners if this continues? Is there a way to control or stop this? This is not my forum, I'm just helping the owners. We want evryone to do it right.

nothing

Not really, all you can do is report it to Paypal and see if they take any action.
I wonder if those sellers know that by charging a paypal surcharge, they are voiding the Paypal Seller Protection Plan

This is a members forum so no one can investigate here. You are not suppose to post anyones personal information in the forum here.
Log into your paypal account and click the "Contact Us" at the bottome.
A lot of scams come from Nigeria. Dont ship until Paypal investigates.

ftcaroline,
PayPal does not offer service to Nigeria. I would treat the report of a payment as false. If you have received any other emails claiming to be from PayPal, please forward them to spoof@paypal.com
