    Just to make it clear - he never tried to fix it / resend money.

    Just a small update on the situation.
    I was hoping that I could protest reversal case with PayPal, but they did not accept it.

    You should provide these screenshots to paypal as proof, I almost lost $200 USD due to a chargeback scam. All I needed was the trade offer history to show them he received his items :/

    Unfortunately it didn't help. I presume that scammer used hacked PayPal account to make a payment.

    Did either of you raise it to a claim? If you don't raise it to a claim then paypal doesn't interfere at all and they eventually get their payment a few days later

    As I understand the real owner of the PayPal account filed "unauthorized account activity" claim. I provided PayPal with all the evidence I had to defend myself but, apparently, it was not sufficient enough.

    Hello, me again.
    Was just hoping you could tell me if I can provide some other information that could speed up the process.
    Cheers.

    Hey there, I just want to know if posting here and bumping this thread helps at all? Almost a year passed and nothing has changed.
