    Well, in Paypal's eyes, you just gave him a gift. So there's no "legal" way to get the money back since you weren't buying anything. You can still try doing an unauthorized dispute, but I have no experience in that so I'm not sure what you'd have to provide.

    Report the scammer and I guess give your bank or paypal a call and tell them you didnt have authorization at that time you sent the payment.

    Indeed, I think I got to agree with being scammed, I'll fill in a scam reporting thingy later, I'll just go and bot for money now.

    Hey really sad to hear you got scammed, although it was quite a small amount Im pretty sure you can phone up your bank (depending country) and explain that you was scammed and they will charge back the transaction.

    When the money is taken off from you bankaccount, just bring your bank a visit and tell them you didn't authorized the transaction.

    I've got no experience with paypal myself, but I did do it once my fitness school was still charging money after I quit there.. My bank recovered my money immediately when I told them my side of the story..

    Also if you do manage to charge back this transaction, you will get the money back but as you sent it as a gift paypal will hold you liable for it

    If you sent it as a gift and included a note stating you already paid for these virtual goods. You won't get your money back.
