Somewhere in this forum there is a link that describes the best way to get PayPal to refund your money which is the route I have attempted. You need to get your local post office to confirm the tracking numbers do not correspond to your home address. PayPal customer service told me if I can get that in writing from the post office, they would refund my money. I started this process back in December. My local post office did confirm the tracking numbers are for other address in my town, not mine. BUT they claim it is against policy for the post office to officially release such information in writing. Fortunately the post master at my post office was willing to escalate this to higher level management, supposedly the east coast regional USPS director. I am still waiting to hear back. In the meantime, however, my credit card company did credit me back the money as they believed my story. Even though I have been made whole right now, I plan to fight this because it is not right for PayPal to back the scammers rather than their users.
