btw, the reason they denied my dispute was this transaction is consistent with my payment history which is not true. I have never make any transaction to europe and sending money to an actual person in the past. Ive only spend money on online shops. ... View more

I noticed something went wrong, so I check every e-mail and among all the spams, I got one PayPal e-mail telling me I just sent $845 to a stranger. I immediately called PayPal(was redirected to chat assistance) to file a dispute or unauthorized access. Within just 5 hours I was told by PayPal that they won't be refund me the money.
