A dispute for an unauthorised transaction is telling paypal that your account was hacked and used without your consent to make that transaction.
Paypal would check IP addresses and devices and close the dispute if it was you that made the transaction.
You are only allowed 1 dispute per transaction so the only way you can get a second dispute opened is to contact Paypal (when and if you can) and see if they will open a second dispute for you.
They may decline citing policies but if you say you made a mistake then they might open a second dispute for you.
If not then if you funded your paypal payment via a credit card then consider contacting your card issuer and see if they will help you with a chargeback?
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Just reading your response stating "A dispute for an unauthorised transaction is telling paypal that your account was hacked and used without your consent to make that transaction. Paypal would check IP addresses and devices and close the dispute if it was you that made the transaction."
How do I have PayPal perform this check because I have EXACTLY this issue and they continue to tell me that it was authorized even though I do not have an account with the Merchant.
Thanks,
Tony

I had an unauthorized charge but since it was not funded by a credit card and Paypal said it was legal, where they got that info is beyond me, I lost $59.95!! From now on Paypal will be the last payer that I use.
