A friend of mine wanted to send me money but he sent to another email, misspelled and typed o twice, that's another email I have but I never had PayPal on that email. What he can do? He can get the money back? He sent it with friends and family and I don't think he has a cancel button. If I'll set up an PayPal account on that email are there any chances on getting the money?

1. Pending (with a clearance date)
2. Pending/Unclaimed with a cancel option.
3. Pending/Unclaimed withOUT a cancel option.
4. Payment or Sent.
5. Pending/Uncleared with a clearance date.

Oh dear, then it sounds as if he sent using the friends/family option and the wrong email address actually exists and belongs to another person who has a paypal account so it has completed.
The only options are reaching out to that person and requesting that they refund the payment (sadly as it was a f/f payment you can't force them to do so) OR if your friend funded that payment via a credit card then see if they will help with a chargeback but again they may not comply as it was not a payment for a purchase.
