Recently, I was involved in a scam where I had to create this new account on paypal to make the payment. What I understood is that new accounts payments are put on hold for 21 days (but if verified, will complete after 7?). Somehow I had convinced the scammer to refund the payment and I have a legitimate, valid screenshot of the refund that I confirmed to be true (Paypal had also confirmed that there was a refund initiated). My question is how soon will I get the refund? and how does it work with Paypal? It should go to Paypal first and then to the seller correct?
