Woke up this morning to a ton of emails sayingmy paypal has been locked etc. due to me not sending goods after receiveng money?
Someone has said they paid me money then five minuetes later have filed a dispute saying "item not recieved"
Also my account has been used to pay for something! The problem is my paypal is linked to my bank account which had no money in at the time.
So not only is one person trying to say they want theri money back I never recieved... someone else has bought something with my paypal... and my bank are going to charge me for being overdrawn on my bank account...
What do I do?? Really didnt need this after my 21st last night!

Do that.
Also, there are tools galore out there for hacking paypal/yahoo/hotmail etc, if you're daft enough to put an easy password on your accounts like dan1234 then you're just asking for it to be cracked (correct term for getting into someones account is cracking, not hacking)
Use a password with letters numbers and symbols such as #d4ni$4w4nk3r#@~][

happened to me back in feb. £828 went from my bank account. i'm pretty sure they cracked my hotmail and changed my password. from there they were able to have my paypal password sent to them. i would change my password on both paypal and hotmail if you use it. your bank will probably let you off with the charges as it's not your fault. you really should speak with them.

Bastards, hopefully your bank will sort it out once you can prove that it wasn't you. I don't use paypal anymore or any site associated with it, too much hassle. If I buy anything online I just pay with my card which is covered should any fraud happen.

Don't count on getting your money back. I bet they will say there is not enough evidence as pretty much the same thing happened to me. Paypal don't care as they still get there money! I hate having to use it.

But if his bank card is linked from his paypal that should cover him and he should get it back, not 100% though but that's the way I got money back in the past.
