Hello!
It's been a year since I got scammed and had an Account Limitation, I felt helpless then and didn't try to dispute it. However, I read in reddit that there is hope for my PayPal account if I were to contact them using my contact number registered on the account. I'm from the Philippines and I tried this but it said that account limitation concerns aren't available through call at the moment.
To recount how I got the account limitation, I had a transaction with a facebook page with 5k followers and likes so I didn't think that it would be a scam. I was planning on buying an online account, worth $100. Since I trusted the facebook page with a lot of followers, I figured I could just send the money first and get the account after. On the first day, they said that there seems to be an issue and they can't get the money. As this was my first time, I didn't really understand that there was a waiting time of a couple of days before they are supposed to get the money.
They weren't giving me the online account at this time so they said that I should refund it and just send it to another PayPal account. I didn't think this was any issue because it seemed like it was just sending your money back and there was no harm done. I resent the money again and they told me that there was still an issue and that I should send it back to the first Paypal account that they gave. I got refunded again and I sent it to the first paypal account and that's when the account limitation hit and they stopped responding to my messages, that's when I figured I got scammed. I have done transactions in the Philippines where I got scammed, I wasn't really concerned with the lost money at the time however I didn't think that I would get banned from PayPal.
Is there anything I could do to fix this?
