Hello everyone! I have a question of a, "Can someone issue a chargeback for family and friends payments on Paypal if they paid with their bank or credit card?" I am planning to start selling crypto and some other similar wallet balances in exchange for Paypal funds and I have been looking a lot to do it the right way and not get scammed because if I get scammed, I know I will get in some serious financial trouble as I will be receiving around 3000 USD per day on average. I have read about getting paid with Paypal in exchange for giving crypto enough to understand the fact that there is a lot of scammers that will try to scam people like me. So I am trying to find a way to receive payments that are, in no way refundable or disputable to make sure I don't get victimized to any of these dispute makers or guys that issue chargebacks to scam. I have deduced that getting paid with the famiy and friend's payment option from clients will eradicate the risk of getting scammed and I just wanted gain some more information before I start selling crypto on is it necessary for me to confirm from every sender that they pay with Paypal balance or getting paid with credit card or bank doesn't have a risk too? Also guys, if you have any better alternative way for me to get paid with Paypal's other option than the f&f option please do suggest. Thanks to everyone in the community, you all are awesome.

Its against Paypal rules to accept a family / friends payment for selling transactions and you risk your Paypal account being limited if you do so.
A buyer would not be able to open a Paypal dispute for non-receipt of item or item not as described as they would have no Paypal buyer protection.
However they can still open a dispute for an unauthorised transaction OR do a chargeback (via their card issuer) and you may well lose as you would have no Paypal seller protection.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
