NEVER SEND ANYTHING WITHOUT DELIVERY CONFIRMATION!!! ONCE U DO, YOU'RE S.CREW.ED.     I got taken for a laptop that way. the buyer received the package, took the laptop and put some rocks in the package to make it weigh exactly what the laptop did. then pulled a scam on me. After waiting endlessly for paypal to do nothing, i went to the buyer's home, confronted the surprised man and told him if my laptop wasnt in my hands in 3 minutes, the cops would come down and arrest him because there was proof he received it, and that I was doing this as a courtesy so he had a chance to not let his neighbors what a crook he was. I left there with my laptop. I know I was risking a lot, but I was NOT gonna be taken for a fool. Worse case, I may have gone to jail, but the man would have never forgot me after looking in the mirror every morning. Anyhow. Dispute was cancelled before I got home from his house....   (He lived in the same state, only about 75 miles from me, thank god.)   ... View more

You have no idea what Paypal has been known to do. Paypal is a private bank account, and you and everyone else sign your life away to them when forced by Ebay to join Ebay's own Paypal. They own your money. And the more frozen accounts they have, the more money they can show their shareholders on paper. Freezing accounts is a normal thing for them. They actually are told to look for excuses to freeze accounts because they can keep that money generating interest for a loong time before they have to, by law, give you back some of it..... Good luck to you, but I wouldnt count on paypal having any sympathy towards you, or the seller. ... View more

"donated" I now want my money back

Website offers premium content in exchange for a donation of $5.00 (No pornography or anything like that, so trollers, don't start) Anyways, I "donated" the 5 bucks only to find out it was a recurring monthly "donation" in exchange for absolutelly nothing. I gained NOTHING by "donating. I paid the so called donation this morning. I cancelled recurring payment within 2 hrs, (when I realized what they had done) and now I want to know how I can stop the payment. I am not expecting a shipment, duh! so how can I dispute this? As always, paypal has to make it impossible to do a simple task. ...       .......................   ugh....   Just for you, itching to say something smart, here it is. It is a gaming website where the owner offers premium access to maps of a Facebook game. All materials are accesible without donating as proven by accessing the site from another computer at another location without logging in. Plus the maps **bleep**. They are useless. I got dupped into thinking the only way to access the information was by paying ,or donating.   Also. Donating for a good cause, cool. Donating in exchange for goods or services is fraud. Why would paypal allow this? dunno. ... View more
