I am so confused. Someone has conned me into sending them 125 USD to their PayPal. They insisted i use personal payment, like an idiot who has never had any issues with buyers or sellers on PayPal, suddenly I find myself after almost 10 years of being a PayPal customer lost without any help. They told me to file a police report, problem is, the person is in the Philippines, and out of jurisdiction. I have contacted the person using yahoo messenger, hotmail, and they have actualyl been bold to say on yahoo that they had received a payment from me for 125USD and asked if it was me, and I said yes, and thats it, they never communicated again, been trying to get them refund me the money. Appears their account was hacked into or they themselves are the scammer. The account is listed on PayPal non-us verified, so of course I was not too afraid to use it, but apparently, ishoudl have. Is there anything I can do? I have communicated over and over with this person begging them to do the right thing to no avail, and PayPal has not offerred to help me with this.
