Please help. Somebody reported all 50 transactions for ''unauthorized access'' over the past month. He has sent me money multiple times over the past month, and it was him. and i am 310 dollars in debt now because of paypal. I dont even understand how this is believable, I can not pay it, I am 17 years old. This is insane. I am crying and panicking because this is so unjust.

Sorry but if you open an illegal paypal account as a minor against paypal rules then this is what may happen !!

Were you selling and accepting funds via the friends /family option?

If not then has a decision been made by paypal yet as its not guaranteed the sender of the funds will win those unauthorised disputes.

I think your best bet is to contact customer services and explain you are a minor, they may not be able to enforce a debt against you until you are 18 but seek advice on that one in your country.
