And then I will promptly call my credit card company crying that I can't find my credit card, file a police report saying I was robbed (should only take me about 15 minutes), and steal every penny of my money back from you.

Every, single, time.

Any takers? :)

Hmmm, I better ask my husband/wife/significant other, do you have a number I can reach you back?

In all honesty I could easily withdraw the money in the time it takes for you to file a chargeback with your CC, then your CC company contacting PayPal; Paypal would be stuck with the bill not me.  Unfortunately I don't use paypal because of crap like this.

dude!

This is why we can't have nice things.

Actually I think paypal would put a negative balance on your account and maybe even overdraw your bank.  I'm not sure but I think this is how they roll.  Yes stay away.

Im game.

Send payment as a gift with the comments thanks for the intimate massage last night xoxo.

I'll sell you all of them in a wallet.dat on a thumb drive.  I won't charge you shipping but unfortunately my packages get lost in the mail a lot  ;D.

It is, they did just that to a friend of mine. It was physical goods and he even provided proof of delivery. They said "Too bad, customer wins", and tried yanking it out of his bank account.

They do thus
Create a Free Online Bank Account (Ally is pretty easy)
Attach it to your Paypal
and Limit the Cash in it.

Also do not allow overdraft under any circumstances (you can call customer service for this)

What happens if you try to do the following thing:
1. Buy $x worth of bitcoins from yourself (your account -> your account)
2. Use free online bank account
3. Request a chargeback
(not saying anyone should do this, ever. Just interested in what would happen, theoretically)
Would you actually receive your money back, or would paypal just change their mind and tell you the seller "wins" and not give you anything because they don't want to pay out of their own pocket?

I'm guessing trying to do this is highly fraudelent and you might get f*cked over badly if paypal gets hold of your identity, don't try @ home.
But on the other hand what paypal is doing to bitcoin sellers providing proof of delivery is just... wow...

if a CC is (supposedly) lost, the CC company is responsible for the losses, not the marchant.
if they suspect any wrongdoing, you can deal with a lawsuit by a major company.

If you're going to do that, I'll need you to pay $55

That is why both plastic money sucks, current online money -which cant evolve enough with modern world wealth- and finally the Hwala huge transaction fee's banks.

Are you kidding me?

A "hacker" could just as easily have left the disgusting message. I am appalled, and had my identity violated, GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK?!!!!!

Just beware, suddenly you might be goxed by a paypal employee, he reads this threads, and decide to scam you. :D Never though of that, huh???  ;D
