I've posted many times on the horror that is Paypal and how they do not help you. If you paid using a cc or your bank account try doing a chargeback. Paypal would not help me when a scammer got me with a bait and switch puppy(after I returned the puppy). I recovered most of my money but lost $250 after months of trying.
PLEASE do not think that if you pay for a puppy using Paypal that you are safe in any way shape or form. There is some fine print that says that things off of ebay are NOT covered in certain cases. This tends to be one of the loopholes. Also if you made more than one payment for the same item(say you paid a little at a time, they will not cover you..there are all sorts of excuses). NEVER pay with money in your account because that will be gone forever.
Also post anywhere you can about this person(ripoffreport, here, sites that you saw their ads, badbreeder.org) etc. I wish you luck, I know the heart ache of not only not getting the puppy you've dreamed about but then also being out the money you could use to get another one. It's like being hurt twice. My thoughts are with you. |
