I placed an order and when I realized the website where I placed my order wasn’t legit, I tried cancelling the order but to no avail. I hurried over to paypal and saw that my payment was on hold. Is there any way to stop that payment before the home is released?

When you pay a company then it is often pending or awaiting authorisation until that company processes your order and captures the pending payment.
If they don't process the order and capture that payment then the pending status times out at 30 days post-payment and returns back to your funding source.
