    Paypal Scam

    I just sold 250m RSGP to some kid who paid in incriments and the first two went smooth and were from the same paypal account and the last payment was from a different account that i did not notice untill it was too late. That account then filed an unauthorized claim and i don't know what to do. I have tried to explain that this is a scam and i tried to show them that this was a legitimate sale and in the notes states for 100m rsgp each time and the two others were for 100m and then 50m.

    Basically what do i need to do already called them etc... Have you ever had this happen and how did it turn out?

    Unfortunately, PayPal do not provide any support for Virtual Item trades. So it's very likely you will lose your money. PayPal has always been a pain to members on Sythe. I'd recommend trying out several other Payment methods such as Western Union, PlayerAuctions or MoneyPak.

    If you have adequate proof, you should be able to create a Scam Report against this kid.

    I was a victim to this charge-back scam too.

    Too bad PayPal doesn't support virtual item trade. The best you can do is the get that person banned on Sythe.

    It's possible to win charge-backs with PayPal. Just explain the trade; include Sythe and the things being traded. It'll boost you with points. Chances are low, but it's happened to me and I've won virtual charge-backs. Hope this helps.

    Sorry to say, but you're not going to win an authorized payment charge back unless the sender didn't know exactly what he's doing, which I doubt.

    Most you can do is get him banned on sythe.

    The Sythe Moderators wouldn't let this happen. They're not allowed to give away the I.P addresses of other users regardless of whether they've scammed you or not, even with proof. Not to mention turning up to someones house to 'kick his ass' is very unprofessional.

    EEhhh i would do that honestly i just had 1 more 70$ sale that is being disputed after i did everything... look out for theese emails all! and be aware of Legitpancake... On sythe he is a scammer.

    The scammers Emails:
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]

    Honestly i think theese are all the same person because the emails are similar. They have issued refunds on all 3 purchases and a total of over 300$.

    If they make a new account, it's called "Ban Evading" , The mods will just ban him again.

    Make a report anyway, the staff can check the I.Ps to see if they're close.
