Ebay user paid for item with another user's paypal, is this ok?

Question

I just sold a Wii and some games for $420.00. The buyer said he had an issue with his paypal account and he didnt pay for two days. This morning, he paid using a friends paypal account. Is this a scam possibility? Should I send him the item? Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

i wouldnt send it. whenever i sell stuff on ebay, and the seller pays with paypal, i also make sure that the email addys match and that the item is shipped to a confirmed address. any excuse of using someone elses acct is not legit! tell the buyer to contact paypal to straighten out the issue and give them 2 days or less to do this. if he does not pay or makes up some other excuse, report to ebay and save all correspondences. good luck .  

Answer 2

Contact Paypal immediately about this , to avoid being scammed, let the sellr know , that you have contacted paypal and you are returning payment..

Answer 3

NO! DON'T SEND OUT THE ITEM!

REPORT THE THEIF TO EBAY NOW!

REPORT THE THEIF TO PAYPAL!

THE CREDIT CARD PAYMENT WILL BE DISQUALIFIED AND SENT BACK TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND THAT BUYER WILL BE SUSPENDED FROM EBAY!

IT'S ILLEGAL TO USE SOMEONE ELSE'S CREDIT CARD, ONLINE OR IN THE STORE.

EBAY AND PAYPAL FORBIDS ANYONE FROM USES ANYONE'S ELSE'S PAYPAL ACCOUNT, CREDIT CARD AND DEBIT CARD.

edit: DON'T LISTEN TO THAT OTHER PERSON!

I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT BECAUSE I'VE READ ALL THE RULES OF EBAY, PAYPAL, CREDIT CARDS, DEBIT CARDS AND CREDIT COMPANIES.
