Hello, i got a message from a random number saying I am going to get cursed if i don't send him money. After each transaction he proceeded to threaten me. He also got my picture. He then cursed me and blocked me. I sent him 25 dollars in total. I am genuinely scared and want to get my money back

Hello @okokokok121 

 

Thank you for posting your question in the PayPal Help Community!

 

I see you're looking to get refund for your recent payments sent to a scammer. If there's any issue with the payment, our purchase protection policy covers the payment and helps you to get refund if certain requirements are met. If you sent the payment as goods and services, you can report the payment in the resolution center of your PayPal account to get your money back. 

 

If you sent the payment as a friends and family payment, we strongly encourage the sender and recipient to work together toward a resolution as friends and family payments are not covered under PayPal Purchase Protection. If you paid using your bank or card you can contact your bank or card issuer to know the dispute options.

 

I hope this information helps,

Bindu
