I paid a fake seller 2400$ With pay pal on 19th December 2023. Unfortunately the fake seller blocked me and refused to ship the cars I bought from him. I contacted pay pal for charge back or refund from the fake seller . Pay pal replied me on January 3rd stating that the fake seller wanted to refund me 1500$ , that I should accept the 1500$ and close the case or decline the offer . I declined the offer because I needed my full refund of 2400$. Unfortunately for me, pay pal rule this case in favour of the fake seller. I contacted my financial institution and my credit card company to charge the account back. Now pay pal is telling me to close the case with my bank so that I can loose my money. Is like pay pal don’t want me to recover my money from this scammer? or pay pal is helping the fake seller? Somebody should help me ask pay pal questions .

If they were real cars and not model ones then paypal does not provide buyer protection for motor vehicles unfortunately.

If you have started a chargeback via your card issuer then its between you and your card issuer now.

You have no paypal buyer protection so its up to your card issuer if they agree to the chargeback or not, Paypal does not make that decision once you have issued a chargeback, the c.c. company makes all the decisions. Paypal just passes on any information to the card issuer on your behalf.
