That kind of service/transaction is vulnerable to scams. What you tried to do is against PayPal user agreement, too because Sri Lanka PayPal accounts cannot receive money so no withdrawals allowed. You can only make payments with credit cards and if you try to extract funds from credit cards to give yourself a cash advance by sending money to someone you do not know or trust to send to your bank account, easy scam.

 

See if you can file this kind of dispute:

 

  1. Locate and click payment transaction in your PayPal account activity
  2. Click "Report a problem”. 
  3. Click “I didn't receive an item I purchased”.

If you can't then that means you sent payment as friends and family so there is no refunds or buyer protection. If you paid with credit card, you can dispute it but no guarantees because you tried to sneak a cash advance out of your card. They won't like that.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
