PayPal
Paid twice after collection agency pursued the same amount

Business & Finance

We sold an item on eBay and the person paid PayPal with their credit card. Later the buyer denied the charges (forgot what they bought), and then PayPal wanted me to pay PayPal back the money that they never paid me but were sure that they did.

The buyer then realized what they had bought and allowed the credit card to be billed, and PayPal then got the money from the buyer. Then PayPal had a collection agency try to collect from me the same amount. So I had to pay them, meaning PayPal got paid twice, once from the buyer and once from me. I never got a thing except a frozen account.

Stay away. You might make a few transactions that go okay, but eventually you will lose. Remember, they have your bank account and/or credit card and will do what they want.
