You mean if you send first? Usually ends in a headache where you have to carefully explain to PayPal what happened without you or the seller mentioning BTC. Escrow doesn't prevent a charge back, doesn't protect the one selling BTC but neither does you sending first. It does prevent the headache mentioned above.

Don't forget about PayPal's digital good policy even if you're paying use a legit account and balance.

Ok. So what is the best to do in situation that i already send money via PayPal, and I suspect that I had been scammed? (Two hours ago he should send BTC.)

Yes, of course, everything is legit.

If you don't get your BTC, there are chances to get scammed and sometimes chargebacks are not easy as PayPal has their own terms to accept such disputes. Mostly the scammer wins the case. If you want to use PP, it's better to use virwox else then there aren't chances of getting scammed.

Paid with PayPal balance or cc / bank account?

Who did you send to? Link to profile may be helpful.

You can open a dispute in PayPal claiming you did not receive the goods you paid for given that you sent this payment as goods and services.

In case you sent this payment as family & friends then there is nothing much that you can do other than claiming this transaction as unauthorized transaction but chances are very less that you will win the dispute as PayPal will investigate your claim and most probably find nothing unauthorized as part of this payment.

I've won a fair number of disputes, even when I've made a payment as 'family and friends'. So it's not impossible to get your money back..

I still dont know when everyone knows about charge back in paypal but still people want to use paypal for buying or selling BTC, when their are so many options leaving that they want to go for paypal and then cry when they get scammed.

Forgot to add that you can also find someone pretty easily on Paxful, but only go with someone who has 100+ positive reviews.
I've managed to do a couple of trades (Paypay to BTC and vice versa) in about half an hour tops.

Yeah I forgot to add the link. :-/

I have to warn you though, a lot of sellers require you to provide some verification and/or have a certain number of transactions to prevent chargebacks.
Luckily there are also some sellers that do not require this, but you won't be able to trade large sums, usually under $100.

paxful.com is good option,but i will suggest you to buy it from trusted people who sell bitcoin with paypal,i'm sure many people accept both,paypal and bitcoins,dont forget use escrow.

Its possible but look out for scammers because yes you can get scammed by people, you should search for trusted people.
People that already have done this once and have reviews from other people so you can trust the one that is doing it.


Title: Re: Transfer to PayPal
Post by: HostSurf on March 07, 2016, 10:10:17 PM
You can do it for course but you have indeed look out for a lot of scammers around here now a days.
I think its better to make a topic and see who can help you with this all.

Its possible with a trusted trader but you should look out because you can get scammed fast on these forums.
More scammers are coming everyday and they have no mercy if you understand what I mean.
Its just much better to do this at a fully trusted player in this and also the fact paypal will make it difficult with disputes about bitcoins..
Avoid this option at all cost. Unless you are absolutely 100% certain that the individual you are dealing with is trustworthy.
Didn't you guys heard that master-p once one of the most prominent escrows on bitcointalk with his exit scam robbed BTC with PayPal to BTC transaction?

yes. It's really important not to trust anyone on this forum not even an escrow. There are so many scams happening and PayPal has it's own definitions of Bitcoin. You're not likely to see that money again.

In your option you want to buy the BTC through paypal payment option so in this you can only ask for charge back but be carefull if you include that you have done transaction of BTC buying then i think you cannot get charge back. getting scam is upto you,

It is not good, you will maybe be scammed and that will be pretty bad. Just hold it, because there are a lot of scammers.
And that will be not good. The value is even not that high so it is better to wait a while.

Indeed, of course the most get scammed because its just that a lot of scammers are just waiting till you make this decision.
You should search a company that would maybe do it because its much safer, or just use another method to do this.

Unfortunately, it was sent as friends & family.
Could you say how in the best way speak with PayPal?
I think it would be better to talk about it via PM

Transferring bitcoins to paypal is not possible so easily you should search a trader that is trusted and will not scam you.
Also do not always just look at the accounts because they are just sold with a high rank so scammers can trap you.


Title: Re: Transfer to PayPal
Post by: ElpadroBitcoin on March 10, 2016, 07:11:28 PM
Transferring it to paypal can be easy if you find the right person to do it, or someone that want to do this in you near area.
But in fact you have to look to someone that can be trusted for sure otherwise you gonna get scammed.

That's the best option, as suggested try getting into contact with the trusted trader before making transaction. I think if trader is perfect then nothing gonna make problem whether you use PayPal or some other service. I suggest PayPal because it accepts only trusted traders as it is providing guaranteed return back.

You are right its very risky to do this with traders, but I must say its the easiest option with the lowest fee's if you ask me.
The point is to look at the forums and the reviews who already trade with the person, use a trader that is already doing this for a while.

every people have chance to be scammed,the safest way is use escrow if you want to trade with someone else,and for me,trade with people more safe and low cost.

Please look out for doing this because there are a lot of risk if you do this so keep that in mind.
One of the big risks is trusting someone your hard earned money to transfer it(trade it).


Title: Re: Transfer to PayPal
Post by: tn211 on March 14, 2016, 08:29:56 PM
Its possible but the fact is that its not possible directly by paypal, you also have some websites for it.
A trader is better in my opinion, well a trusted trader of course because the fee's are less more than at a website for sure.


Title: Re: Transfer to PayPal
Post by: MaritiJames3 on March 15, 2016, 10:01:22 AM
You can transfer bitcoins to paypal but only some exchange websites are doing this because its also a risk they are taking.
What people are already saying a trader is way better because the fee's are much lower and also its mostly faster.

Post by: thesame12 on March 17, 2016, 09:05:12 PM
You can get paysafecards instead of getting a direct transfer.
