Unauthorized transaction dispute being denied? My PayPal credit account information was stolen and used to purchase bunch of online games and gift cards. Been with PayPal for years and the first time I need their help to solve an issue they deny my claim 30 minutes after it was sent for review? anyone else have this issue? even the person from support on the phone was completely agreeing with me how obviously stolen the purchases were. HELP! it was so much money, I'm terribly in debt now.

Paypal doesn't cover you for all unauthorised transactions.
Best read up on the section in paypals user agreement and see where you could have lost out as you have not put enough information on how scammers accessed your paypal credit account for us to advise further.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Today, I have a transaction from AIRBNB PAYMENTS UK LIMITED for $720 that I did not make.
Has anyone experienced something similar? I filed a complaint with PayPal, but they're telling me there was no unauthorized use.
BUT I DID NOT MAKE THE PURCHASE.
Any advice?
Did you have any positive response from Paypal?

Thank you for the response!
I've already initiated the process with my bank and Airbnb.

Same problems. On 1/2/2024 someone transferred a total of over $2000 from my Paypal account to a bank account. I filed a case to get money back. In a few minutes Paypal replied "No suspicious activity", "consistent with your payment history." What a shame for Paypal. If they just review my payment history, for the past 8 years, I only paid 1 dollar to my friend. I am going to spend all my Paypal money and change to another platform. Shame on you.
