a few days i was sending money to someone for a family members funeral services, I sent the money to the wrong person. I have tried to email the person, contacted paypal immediately, and requested the money back from the wrong person. Any other suggestions on how to get my 600.00 back so I can send to the right person?

If you used the friends/family option then your only chance is to reach out to the person you sent the funds to and request a refund but neither you or customer services can force them to do so as it was a 'gift' of money.

Other than that if you funded your paypal payment via a credit card you could try a chargeback but again if sent f/f they 'may' decline.

OR did you send it as goods/services, if so then open a dispute for non receipt of item as that person has nothing to send you.
