Dear Me (myself),

We have recently been informed that your PayPal Account received funds from
an account that has been associated with unauthorized credit card use.

Details of the transaction and this case are as follows:

Buyer's Name: ***************
Buyer's Email: ***************
Transaction Date: Nov 3, 2004
Transaction Amount: -$50.00 USD
Case #:*************

PayPal indemnifies sellers from chargeback liability resulting from a
buyer's unauthorized use of a stolen credit card and/or false claims of
non-shipment of goods for payments received through PayPal of up to
$5,000.00 USD per year when the following conditions are met:

1. The seller has a U.S., U.K, or Canadian Verified Business or Verified
Premier Account.

2. The seller ships to the buyer's address listed on the Transaction
Details page.

3. The seller can provide reasonable proof of shipping which can be
tracked. This documentation must show that you shipped to the address on
the Transaction Details page. (Most U.S. carrier companies, including the
U.S. Postal Service, offer this service.) For transactions $250.00 USD or
more in value, the seller also needs to provide proof-of-receipt in the
form of a signature from the recipient. Because comparable proof of
shipping is not currently available for electronically-delivered items, we
are currently unable to offer Seller Protection for digital goods and other
electronically-delivered items.

4. The seller accepted a single payment from only one PayPal account for
the purchase. (Multiple payments from different accounts for a single item
are a fraud indicator. Sellers should not accept such payments.)

5. The seller cooperates in resolving disputes by responding within a
specified timeframe. When a complaint occurs, the seller must provide
complete information within 7 days of a request from PayPal. However, if
PayPal is required by the credit card association to respond immediately to
resolve a reversal, sellers must provide the information within 3 days.
PayPal will indicate the response time required in the e-mail message sent
to the seller.

6. The seller ships within 7 days of receiving payment.

A hold has been placed on the transaction in question while we investigate
this case. To assist us in resolving this case, please click on the link

I don't know why I got this email, and when they ask for some kind of hard evidence to prove that this is real I don't have any. I don't keep any logs of my deals online, after the people get the item I throw away the tracking number. Why did I get this and what can I do to keep from getting charged for something that I did 5+ months ago? I can't even remember what it was....
 
I really don't understand what this has to do with the forum. :confused: Perhaps you should reread your sig. :p Anyway, it seems like I've been getting a lot of paypal scam emails lately. Was this an email? Check your headers to try to determine if it actually came from paypal. Check that link(it isn't showing up here properly) and see if it is valid. If you are really concerned about it, forward the email to paypal and ask them to verify that they actually sent it. If you have question about paypal, I have a feeling that they would be able to provide better answers than anyone here. If I got that email I would probably just ignore it, though.
 
Krypto, you need to contact PayPal. Help/Feedback is for matters dealing with the [H]ardforum.
