Transaction that involve Paypal-Bitcoin don't really need an escrow honestly because transactions are reversible .
If he indeed scammed you , then contact paypal and tell them . If you paid from your Credit card then it will be even easier to chargeback by contacting the credit card company .

Start a chargeback, do not mention Bitcoin. Escrow is  useless with Paypal as a chargeback can be done anytime in the next 180 days.
Also, you should have read: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=14632.0

My bad, I'm didn't see him feedback. He scammer since 2015. Why he not getting ban?
http://oi63.tinypic.com/etfvjr.jpg

I think I can't chargeback becuase I payment as a gift. Paypal siad "We're sorry, but this transaction cannot be disputed because it is not a purchase of goods or services. Please contact the recipient directly".

Anyone know how to chargeback if payment as a gift?

Administration don't ban scammers because they will basically comeback using other accounts and since multiple accounts are allowed there is nothing to do to stop them , however people leave negative trust on profiles , so you just shouldn't trade with negative trust users .

After you PM'ed me , I searched little bit and here is what I found : http://www.sythe.org/archives/807713-can-you-chargeback-paypal-gift.html (see in bold below)

There are two ways that you can be charged back on PayPal.

The first is Item dispute, saying that you did not receive the item, the item is faulty, etc. This is cancelled out in PayPal gift (as there is no item.)

Secondly, there is Unauthorized dispute, this IS applicable to Gift, as you are saying that you were not the one who sent the money, and PayPal will hold the money and investigate.

I also believe you can ring PayPal and ask them to open a dispute on gifts.

Why are you even worried?
Simply call up PayPal and tell them to reverse the transaction.

Explain to them how you were scammed. You would not even have to start a dispute or a charge back.

Been there done that.

Update:
Paypal Closed my case, but I not receive my money. In email Paypal said.

Quote
If you made this payment intentionally, but you never received your item or you received an item that was different from what was advertised, we may be able to investigate this payment for you and help to find a satisfactory outcome. If you want to take this option, please let us know and we can open a claim for you.

I don't know how can I let him know and open a claim about I get scammed. Please help  :(

Sorry I'm not good English.

Look for any specified link or email address in the e-mail you received and reply to that. Otherwise if you are unsure, take a screenshot of the e-mail you received from Paypal and link it for us to help you. Do remember to hide any private information.

Quoted for reference.  Don't know if your account was actually hacked or not, but I don't want the above going away any time soon.

Edit:  While I'm here, did OP ever get his money back?  I do recall seeing this thread earlier in the month.

call paypal don't give up and learn from your lesson don't buy from somebody with neg feedback or low feedback maybe test him 10 20 dollars and see.


don't give up call them or let your friend relative to call them for you and stay next to him and give him all the things your know details and such.

please don't give up even if your english not that perfect  Paypal as a company willing to help you and do a big investigation.


Mobile talk if you see this  i tell you this if this guy calls  you will get in big trouble. Paypal will chase you and do an investigation .
