The account that the payment was sent to will have a negative balance of $100 if it is chargedback and the balance is 0. If you have a bank attached to that PayPal account, what will most likely happen is the money will be withdrawn from the checking or savings account that the PayPal is linked to. PayPal also tracks the log-in IP's. So trying to transfer the money from account to account would not work either as they will most likely try to pull the money back to solve the negative balance.

Years ago, I had a situation where I believe someone paid me on an eBay purchase with carded funds or a stolen account. I was completely unaware, but PayPal froze my account until I sent in a ton of personal information to verify identity.

Even if you never intend to pay the first balance back, don't be surprised if the second account gets frozen.

If the PayPal account is linked to a bank account,  you can drain and close it and just make a new bank account.  However, this seems like a hassle for only $100.   I personally wouldn't sell bitcoin through PayPal or any credit card, for that matter.  You'd have to charge a high rate to cover losses from chargebacks.

Yes, you have to close your bank account and open a new one to avoid finding your account drain already of paypal chargebacks.

You realize you may never be able to use paypal again? They do require a lot of info to get accounts nowadays and matching you up with a closed account won't be overly hard. They are still one of the most common payment services online and if you use ebay it's required.  If you just want to buy bitcoin with a CC, use coinbase. They allow that.

What I want to know is what happens if someone is using a bitcoin debit card connected with a third party to use PayPal and they reverse charge ? Or can't they ?

It is not worth it. Paypal will screw you over any way they can. If then can figure out who you are they will go after your credit if they cannot go after anything else. The simple way to protect yourself is to not use Paypal. Just do not. They are a scummy evil company who answers to no one and I have no idea how they have gone this long without a major government investigation. It does not matter how safe or right you think you are; Paypal will get you. They are worse than the government.

Sorry to hear about your issue with PayPal. Sometimes it hard dealing with buyers online and then having to use PayPal as a payment processor because it's so common online and then you get a scumbag customer who knows that PP will side with the buyer most of the time. Sometimes you just have to chalk it up to doing business as usual.

No issues at the moment but i did get caught for 200 euro once and vowed never again.So more of a preventive measures


A couple of things i left out

The paypal cant get linked back to me  false name false address and i excess through a vpn .
I only link a disposable debit card  the account also not in my name only 10-15 dollars on it  .

I pretty sure i have it guys i added in  one are two steps  extra .Keeping the last few  a secret :D but i pretty sure if a charge back happens i not   be the one  holding the bag ;D  .
