Few days ago i was scamed for 100$.
Scammer asked me to use friends and family payment to make things go smoothly.

A friends / family (or gift payment) is intended as a transfer of funds from family or friends to one another. For this reason, there is no processing fee when payment is made with bank or PayPal balance.
However as it is a gift payment, there is also no buyer protection as no goods or services should have been exchanged.

If he was not a close mate or family member you should never use that option as it enables the seller to evade paying his Paypal fees and negates your buyer protection at the same time.

You would also not be able to open a dispute (apart from one citing an unauthorised transaction), which would be automatically closed as you did authorise the initial payment.

Be careful as using that option for purchasing goods is against Paypal rules and can lead to account limitation.

If you funded your Paypal payment via a credit card then contact your card issuer and see if they will help you but unfortunately they may decline as well as it was a gift payment.

OK fine that's if we sent money but where do report the accounts?  On a social media platform two accounts tried to get me send money using the friends methods this way posing as a different person.  I was given the two accounts below.  I did not send them money because I recognized the accounts were not genuinely from the person I follow but why aren't people's identify being verified under KYC & ALM rules for finances?  These were clearly generated accounts by bots for scam farms.  Why is PayPal allowing them to operate on the platform?

[removed] & [removed] both at a very very popular free email site.  You could even google it.

Oh...and update your reCatpcha, this is n the 90's.

If you don't use the friends/family option for purchases then they can't scam you can they.

As for the reCatpcha  🤔
