trap

Order a product using Paypal. My credit card was charged, but Paypal said they never received the money. Thus I did not receive the product I ordered.
Went thru the long process of having the credit card company to return my money.

I use PayPal a lot. I have one credit card JUST for PayPal purchases. Never had a problem in ... oh... 7 or 8 years I think. I keep all transaction receipts. I agree it's a pain when things go astray though.

Hey Bud

Sorry to here about your problems with Paypal.

Never have had a problem with Paypal in over 600 transactions but alot of phoney sites are around imitating Paypal.

Were you dealing from a reputable site eg eBay or was it a private deal??

There are 1000's of horror stories re phoney sites and you can see some of these bad apples by logging on to Traderlist which is a forum similar to Router Forums see http://www.traderlist.com and for the recent list of complaints go to http://www.traderlist.com/Caution_Jan2006.html

I check this site regularly for updates of latest scams and notorious bad traders.

Biggest problem I have had, is not getting product after its been paid for!!

I concur with reikimaster and use one credit card with a small limit for use on the internet only. Seems to work for me.

Hope you have better luck next time, if there is one.

Ric
