!@#$%^&~!@#$% Hacker!!!!
I dont know why i decided to go in my paypal account like 2 hours ago. some how my account was frozen. i had to input my whole credit card number. after that, i saw a paypal investigation going on in my account. i saw 2 instant transfer ($3200 and $272) to a person i dont even know. the transaction was like 2 days ago. luckily paypal caught the $3200 transaction and did investigation. somehow the hacker hack in my paypal email and delete all emails from paypal. i just changed all my bank emails and passwords. Hope paypal reimburse all my money

i always get bugged out by paypal so i stick with money orders after I get to the person really well, or just strait up in person cash for whatever it is im buying. BTW good luck with everything hope you get your money back.
Paypal reversed the transaction. Money is pending in paypal and back to my account. What a relief. Hope the paypal security key arrive soon!!

the funny thing about the whole situation is the seller blames me on his stupidity. The hacker sent payment to the seller and didnt provide the shipping address thru paypal. The seller still sent out his laptop to an unknown address. He is not a ebay newbie either. He has been buying and selling stuff and he has a 179 100% positive rating. I understand his frustration, but how can he blames me on his stupidity and my hacked account??? I just dont get it....

Man, that sucks! I'm selling my camera on eBay and it sold, but by the time I got the email that it sold I had also gotten an email that the account was being used to make purchases without the owners permission. Luckily eBay refunded all of the fees.
