I have used paypal for about a year, I had a different account before. Someone managed to get into my account and make a transaction of £50 to Omnyex Ecommerce DMCC, I believe they bought a Steam Code for £48.99 GBP. I got a text from Paypal saying that the transaction was marked as suspicious. 'reply 1 if authorised or 2 if not authorised'. I tried to send a text to reply with 2, the message didn't send, I was curious why and apparently it's because they charge you for texts. Anyway I thought that surely without my confirmation on a suspicious transaction they won't let it pass through right? Because what kind of fraud protection is that. But what an idiot I was when I looked into my account and saw a transaction of -£48.99. I immediately tried to dispute the transaction as unauthorised. Paypal came back to me and said that the transaction is authorised and my money will not be refunded. I guess it isn't that much amount of money, but it's still my money and I want it back. I have provided pictures below that show the text chain and the closed case. 1 2
