    First time iv ever had a problem with paypal. If a kid on here uses there mom or dads paypal/bank account and purchases runescape gold from you. He can then claim a dispute for unathorized transaction and it be paid back to him immediatly. Just got off the phone with paypal and they said it happens all the time. So a kid can go around scamming with his mom or dads paypal/bank and his account won't get suspended till like 5 or 6 disputes. My throw down paypal is now limited and -$90.00, Good thing i never use my real paypal for online transactions.

    This has been going on for quite some time and I'm pretty sure the large majority of users are aware of it. Thanks for the heads up nonetheless.

    This is fairly common knowledge. You might befit from reading the market guides (safety) in discussion.

    Paypal always has a way to chargeback.. Sorry for your loss, thanks for the heads-up though.

    Locking this. As said, paypal has always been unsafe and abused by scammers. Plain and simple. You can use Player Auctions, you can use WU, bitcoin, moneypak, Liberty Reserve, etc. There's many ways to transfer wealth besides paypal.

    As syphrez said, refer to our market safety sticky.
