Paypal chargeback, for the third time

[funtotry]

Just experienced my third chargeback, and this time with candystripes, I sent him 80 dollars btc, and he sent 80 dollars paypal. Its astounding how paypal ceases to help the seller, I will cease any business with them. Total of 200 dollars down the drain with these chargebacks, I see why people use btc instead of paypal...

Once is a mistake, twice is boarder line stupid and then a 3rd time with candystripes ahaha no comment. At least now you see that it is not worth doing business with untrusted traders

Unfortunately, this happens. BTC and Paypal has always been trouble.

Just experienced my third chargeback, and this time with candystripes,

 . Why are you even still dealing with this idiot, never mind accepting payment in such an easily refundable method as Paypal? There are several trustworthy members here who would have sold you coins for PayPal as well.

[xetsr]

When did he send you paypal funds? Candy had multiple complaints against him just not with chargebacks. Not sure why you would deal with someone like him.

I've been using paypal to buy and sell to a select few and haven't had any problems the past 2 years. You just have to be very careful who you deal with.

Your first mistake was dealing with Candystripes. Your second mistake was using Paypal. Come on, we had this so many times, PayPal is not a safe method to pay for BTC.

Why would PayPal help? Honestly. What part of DON'T USE PAYPAL is misunderstood around here? I'm afraid your money is gone.  

[RHavar]

If I recall correctly, Candy was on MP chat talking about paypal flagging his account and reversing a lot of transactions against his will. While I have no insight into what exactly went down, I have heard of this happening to paypal<->bitcoin dealers, who I very much trust. If you haven't already I'd make sure to get in contact with Candy, it's possible you weren't scammed

[Quickseller]

No way ?!?!? you got a paypal chargeback from Candystripes? I cannot believe that. I never would have thought he would scam

/s

[funtotry]

Candystripes is pretty smart though. He has many many alts that skype you sending ddos threats or something and multiple paypal accounts sending you money. He sent me 27 dollars and said I should refund that back, but I could have refunded it and then he could have chargebacked THAT 27 stealing even more from me. NEVER deal with him, he is such a scumbag.

Yep it is gone and this is the last time I am using them as a seller. e-coin.io looks like a promising visa bitcoin debit card and straight to cash is probably the most safe and zero possibility of chargeback. Tired of paypals awful customer service, they did nothing to help me

Yea no shit don't deal with him. Anyone ever considering to deal with candy is just asking to get scammed, period. Even if you are receiving bitcoin he will try to scam you.

Candystripes is a well know scammer, you should not trade with him also with the use of the escrow it is so risky.

By the way, I'm not saying it's your fault. Fricking scammers! Sorry to hear about your loss.

This is a funny thread. Let's go through this step by step, since this thread makes me look like a scammer:

1. We used to exchange alot. Sometimes up to $100+. He trusted me, I trusted him.
2. We exchanged $50, $20, and $17 in the course of a week.
3. Suddenly my PayPal was limited, and PayPal AUTOMATICALLY chargedback my last 5 sent transactions.
4. I won the chargebacks
5. My account is limited so the money is sitting there.
6. I had a friend send him $150, and I made a new PayPal and sent him $27 on top to cover it.
7. Now he is holding $177 of my money. He owes me $90.

Waiting for him to come online and hand over the $90.

I may have attempted to extort, but williamj2543 is the REAL scammer. Look at his trust: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=191301

Don't know how he's not neg repped yet, he's a HUGE scammer. And this thread is a deceiving, misguiding lie.

Escrow wouldn't have done anything since he did the chargeback days later, escrow cant help in terms of paypal transactions.

Honestly, Candy's side of the story makes sense. Call me crazy but he may be innocent for once. We all know the situation with paypal/btc. Seriously though, stop using paypal. It fucking sucks.

His friend sent me 150 and told me to keep it if the chargeback went through. It did, and I am giving him some steam cames to repay him, and he has agreed that this is fine. He sent 27 dollars and of course I did not send it back because he could steal EVEN MORE by charge-backing the 27 he sent me. Never deal with this scammer. I will not be using paypal or dealing with anyone when exchanging btc, its just not worth it
Referring to when he is talking about "automatic chargeback", I don't give a rats ass about that. I am still down my 80 dollars and I do not have it. If he really cared about his shitty reputation he would sent his 80 minus 27 dollars back, through bitcoin. He just gambled away all the money I exchanged to him....

according to this, now you are the scammers since you keep the overpay amount

The person who sent me the extra money was NOT candy, and I have known him for a while as well (both me and candy know him). I don't want to reveal his name to the public, but PM me if you have questions. The friend sent me 150 for reperation for the chargeback, apparently because Candy told him so, and he said just to keep the money if he does chargeback. Both Candy and the friend were fine with that. When the chargeback did happen, the friend told me to keep it but buy him about 50$ worth of steam games in return, I have already bought him a couple games he told me, and he is looking for more he wants. The friend is fine with that, and after all it is his FRIENDs money, not Candy's, as he says it is. The reason I am keeping the 27, is because if I send it back he could just chargeback THAT and scam me for 27 dollars more on top of 80 dollars.
If any trusted members want proof I can PM you everything. So the friend who sent 150 dollars is fine with me keeping it with the deal we made, and Candy is pissed because he wants to scam 27 on top of it. He even admitted he wanted to try to extort me. So he owes me 80$-27$, preferably in btc so that he doesnt chargeback that like the scumbag he is.

Re-cap:
Friend who sent me 150 is fine with me keeping it, and actually instructed me to keep it as long as I buy him the rest of his games, and block Candy

Candy want me to send back his 27 dollars, when he should sent me the remainder of the 80, which is 53 dollars.
I will not send him back his 27 unless he sends me 80 dollars worth of btc only.
