Yes, actually I can see the usual "payment page" now.   So even if the seller ships the products and I find out they are crap, I lose in every case possible.   Thanks. ... View more

Seller sent invoice, did I get scammed?

Hello,   I paid products from China and the seller sent me an invoice through Paypal. He did wrote why I paid (he mentioned the products, how many, etc) in the invoice page.   Unfortunately I see nothing where I can dispute or fill a claim if I don't receive the products. It looks like I didn't buy anything, I just paid an invoice as if I asked them a service or something.   I paid about $950.   Am I getting scammed or am I protected? ... View more

Hello,   I received an invoice I have to pay. I have enough money on Paypal to pay the invoice but when I click on "Pay", Paypal asks me to add credit card.   How come I have to add a credit card if I have enough money already on Paypal to pay for the goods?   I don't want to pay with my credit card. I want to pay with the sold I have on Paypal.   Thank you ... View more

Hi there,   I have a well trafficked blog (it's not a business...just a blog) and want to accept paypal donations to an email address associated with said blog. But, I don't want my name, address, contact info, etc. shown to those that may donate.   My understanding is...   Once I create a PayPal account with this blog email address, I'll need to enter my real name/banking information to receive donations. This isn't an issue. But, after donations are received, the senders will be able to see my real name/contact information. This IS an issue. In summation, can I receive donations to a PayPal account without senders having access to my contact info? How?   Thank you ... View more
