Default Scammed on eBay and afraid of losing account

I have been scammed by a guy who bought 400$ worth of Fifa 20 coins on eBay.
He bought about a quantity of 20 on 3 different names.
Now I got my first case filed with 1 name for 100$ usd.
Is my Paypal account fried?
I already sent the available money to another account and withdrawn them.
Is there any way I can get out of this without my paypal accounts blocked?

Re-send funds from another paypal to settle the balance and refund the guy and take the loss.

That is the only way.

Welcome to the forum - all the best as you master stealth

Your pp account may survive one hit like this but PP can be finicky so it's tough to be 100% sure - they really don't like digital delivery.

How often have you been sending money to the other account? That could also come into play.

It's coming up the Christmas, I find the level of scammers rises considerably during this period.

Have you considered filing a police report?

I don't know how much it'll help but doing so tells PP that you're serious
