If they send you the PayPal payment as a gift , they  charge you back / get a refund Huh

Quote from: forum.rebelscum.com/t1095761/
Hi Guys, just a heads up regarding paypal gift payment. Recently I had one reversed for over $1000. I was only notified 4 days after receiving the payment. These payments can be reversed just like a normal Paypal payment. They can be reversed if funded by a credit card, Bank account or even if the funds are in the sender paypal account.
My best advise is to pay/split the 3-4% and gain the seller protection.

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

I'am more then sure that what is sent as gifts can't really get reversed unless someone used a screwed up Note while sending the money.
you should always the seller always to say that : "I've bought Bitcoin from you and received them . thanks" or something like that to proove that he received  his goods , and in case of opening a dispute well .. it's easy he received the items so he won't win the dispute

Won't mean a thing if the PP account was hacked and/or the gift was CC funded. Paypal will allow the charge back.

When the subject of buying BTC with Paypal comes up, I often remember this: 

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

So any payment CC funded could be chargebacked ?

Yes, it can be as long as the dispute submitted seems to be true when CC issuing bank investigated. To prevent it, try to make the trade/deal in public(as much as possible).

I didn't understand your question completely but I will answer according to my understanding.

When you trade BTC for Western Union(WU), you are giving some of your personal details which isn't good thing and money send through WU is reversible too as sender can file a dispute and WU can track you with the address(& related). So trading via WU is deprecated like PayPal. Be careful!

AFAIK yes! But I think they only refund if personal details verification fails and I don't think it is possible to transfer a person's MyCash to another as they verify personal details.

Reference: https://www.paypal-community.com/t5/About-Products/My-Cash-card-refund/td-p/762089 . Also, see their FAQ - Why couldnt PayPal verify my personal information?.

I hope that people take more caution on their trades with MyCash . It's really not that secure and that safe you know .
Some SEing (Social Engineering) on your Credit Card providers is more then enough to get a refund on your MyCash and this may mean getting MyCash Canceled . (And of course this only happens if the guy bought using a Credit card).
Do you mind updating the list with more Payment methods now theymos ? thanks.

Carefull dealing with payza

Indeed , I can confirm that .
"If a Payza member contacts their credit card issuer to dispute a transaction, their Payza account will automatically be suspended as chargebacks are against our User Agreement. If you are unsatisfied with a product or service you have paid for using Payza, you should contact the seller in question and attempt to resolve the issue with them. Most disputes are resolved with proper communication between customer and seller. You have until 45 days after the transaction to file a dispute."

More informations from the official Payza website : https://helpdesk.payza.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/678/115/can-i-file-a-chargeback-with-my-credit-card-issuer
