So real time I am getting scammed for $200 by a website that only offers PayPal, and reroutes the purchase by masking an individual seller who collects the money purchase was yesterday after noon. Having revived no confirmation email I attempted to check charge this is the website discountxclub.us and this is the seller “<removed>” . Domain was registered two days ago so for the next 13 days this seller can scam as many victims as possible and disappear and start up a new site and do it all over again. The 15 day window allows this to happen. Luckily I can dispute the charge as it went through Discover on their end but until PayPal returns to the office the automated processing will just keep chugging along sending honest money out to criminals. I was careless yes and should have checked the business address before placing the order, I did look for reviews and found no negative ones and a website saying it has a positive rating because it is brand new which I didn’t check. The address for the business is a Carvana location in Atlanta, fake, the support email address bounces back. How about a real effort to be able to stop fraud as it happens. I can’t be the only one with this frustration about your support processes.

I had the exact same problem. First I reported the problem to PayPal. (I learned that it's best classified under "I didn't receive what I ordered.") Then I called PayPal and spoke with a representative. She was able to give me a refund after I explained what was going on with this company.
