I just received an e-mail from Paypal stating I have a pending reversal on my account because "you may be the recipient of potentially fraudulent funds".

I'm assuming this is due to a fraudulent use of a credit card and NOT a non-delivery claim. Is that correct? I've not gotten one of these e-mails before.

Thanks.

To quote Bruce Willis from Die Hard: Welcome

Been there, done that. In fact, I was JUST
about to post a new threat regarding a
surprise twist in my adventure...

You need to contact them (toll free phone #
on their contact page on web site), but you
are probably right.

Yes- it is probably a fraudulent credit card payment

If it's really "common" sense, why do so few people actually have it?

been there too..
kids played with parents credit card buying stuff on Ebay and paying via Paypal and didn't tell mom and dad- the bill came and the mom and dad saw all the charges so they thought their card was stolen.....and disputed all the charges and well after about a month finally Paypal credited me back that money and the parents of the kids sent me an "we are so sorry the mis-understanding" e-mail. Paypal acts first and asks questions later- they just yanked that money out my checking account for about a month and moved in slow motion to put it back in..
****I had shipped the items to the confirmed address
****I had shipped the same day I recieved payment
****and last I had online delivery confirmation that the package had been sent and recieved.
That was the only problem I have had with Paypal I think.

I WISH YOU LUCK- THIS WON'T BE A QUICK THING I AM SURE!

Well, within the last 45 minutes I've received a 2nd e-mail from Paypal saying the funds were adding back into my account because the transaction was deemed not to be unauthorized, followed by ANOTHER reversal e-mail now stating the user is claiming unauthorized access to his/her Paypal account.

This just gets more fun.

I hope it's not a lot of money. PayPal is screwing you like it has done to so many of us in the past.
