And I understand your point But take into account I am just 18 barely not a minor. Not only that but I have not just one problem but two, one of them being that she pretended to be PayPal and tried to get my card info and PayPal is still saying they can’t do anything. I didn’t know there was different types of payments as I use PayPal mostly for online shopping so usually I log in and the checkout takes care of the rest. And on top of that PayPal is aware of the scams under this separate method of payment. So to everyone who has commented on this saying I’m not smart for not reading the terms and such I’m very sorry That not everyone is as diligent as you. I’m very happy that you will never fall for a scam because of it. But I am not you I did not read the terms because usually it’s the same legal jargon the same Repetitive legal agreement usually just asking you to follow the law. But at this point it’s not just that she stole 200$ from me and PayPal can’t help me I underStand though I believe the policy is wrong and should be changed to protect all especially if your someone like me and unaware there is even different methods to pay with through a “secure” money transfer app/website. I went to ask my mom what I should do and she had no idea that you had the option to use family and friends either. So what do you do when you can prove a scam, not just that but you can prove they are impersonating PayPal (which is against PayPal policy isn’t it?) and they still won’t help? Even not getting restitution, they could still investigate her and take into consideration all of the events that transpired.
