someone screwing me over
 

hi, i did some work for someone. it was designing their webpage. i sent them an invoice thru paypal and they paid it, and then i did the work. now after its been done, they have gone to paypal and said it was an unauthorized charge. now my account is in the negative. what should i do? will paypal decide in my favor or theirs?

Most likely you're screwed. :(

First cancel any credit cards and bank accounts associated with the account if you don't want them taking even more money from you. Then your only option is to somehow get the buyer to drop his chargeback. Paypal will not protect you in anyway from a chargeback. If all else fails set up a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ account and screw them back.

the buyer did that simply because he or she doesn't want to pay the fees or your work. You can try to get in touch with your payer first, to see what happen.

If that does not solve the problem, you may want to phone Paypal and explain your situation to them, and ask for help. You should say all kinds of positive things, and hide the negative ones

Get started on a police report..You have the proof
