I am blown away by all the people that's also got scammed while paypal has done nothing!! That's enough proof to me that they are all in cahoots together or either paypal is getting a % of the scammers money!

Then stop supporting the scammers by sending payments for goods or services via the friends/family option.
Paypal gives you buyer protection but you chose not to use it.
Why would paypal bail you out for your own mistake?
You sent a 'gift' of money to someone and paypal legally can't force them to return that gift.

When you select friends/family then it tells you that there is no buyer protection.
Yes, I have been scammed, I kicked myself, learnt from it and moved on.
I did not blame my bank or card or payment processor, I blamed myself for my decisions.
