Wasn't entirely sure on where to post this...lol. I'll go fill out the actual scam forum thing if that's the best course of action, but it seems like mmobay can't really "force" a payment like paypal?

Anyway, quick background - I bought an account a couple weeks ago, got some information at the time, was promised an ID scan but never got it. Account was recalled today, and I've skim read the scammer forums a few times in the past, so my question is this - should I fill out the form there and try to get a refund through this site, or should I file a dispute with paypal first? Also, if I go the paypal route, what exactly do I tell them? From reading their ToS, it looks like they just don't offer any support in virtual goods purchases? >< Anyways, yeah. Not 100% on which way would be best to get my money (or at least some of it) back.

Im not sure what your asking?


So you bought an account, and it got recalled - and you want to get your money back right?
(Thats what Im getting our of reading your post)


First, I would recommend you going to the scammer forum. Making a thread and showing proof that you got scammed for that said item. And if its true, you have saved the rest of us from that scammer; and he will get banned.

After that, I would recommend doing an Unauthorized Transaction dispute on PayPal. Say you didnt authorize the payment. It doesnt always work, but thats they best you can do. Dont call PayPal, youll just waste your time, they dont care about any of their customers. Youll just call and end up getting frustrated...


Thats my 2cents.
 
Hey, yeah sorry if that was unclear, was cooking dinner while typing it, yeah - I was pretty much just asking for which I should go through, 'cause paypal seem kinda terrible :P Thanks for the input, I'll make a scam thread in a sec ^^
