Oh noooo 😞 I still believed, that my so called employer is going to show up and solve 2 disputes on eBay. Seems I am in the same trap :((( Owing 8080 dollars to Paypal 😞 I was contacted as a virtual assistant with salary of 700$ per month for escrow service company. At first I was contacting people and responding to their e-mails and calls. Then they proposed to work with me as a partner in escrow services. We signed an agreement. Then we did three transactions with 12000$ in total. I needed to withdraw money to the bank and then to wire it (through international wire, moneygram or western union), leaving my 2.5% escrow comission. For each of those transactions I was getting an invoice to eBay buyer, who was actually paying for a merchandize. Also I have the agreement between buyer and supplier which states that I'm doing only escrow services and all the disputes should be solved between buyer and supplier only. Plus I was getting tracking number for the goods that were sent and received. Saying that, I was sure that I'm doing a legit job being their partner in the US. So what should I do now? Do I need to file a report to police? Do I need to hire a laywer? Because from one side I have holds on my Paypal account and negative balance, from the other - I have all the documentation provided by them that I'm basically not responsible for the merchandize. What did you do? Did it help? If at last I'll have to pay to Paypal back, is there a way I can do that portionally in 100 increments every month? I hardly make money for living now (stay-at-home mom with three kids) and physically don't have that amount of money anywhere. No realty, no own car, nothing...:(
