the guy that bought in lived in the UK & payed by paypal
everything was cool until TODAY, reading my email & got this:
Dear <edit>,
We regret to inform you that you received funds from an account with
reports of fraudulent credit card use. In the meantime, we have placed a
pending reversal on the funds in question until the investigation is
complete. This pending reversal will show as a deduction in your available
balance. In the meantime, you are free to continue transacting using your
PayPal account.
The transaction under review is: $224.50 on 11/17/00, from <bastard> ,
<bastard>@semax.org.
To help in our investigation, we request that you send an email to
pending_reversal@paypal.com with the following information:
1. The item that was purchased, and the value of the item;
2. The name and address given to you by the buyer;
3. Whether or not you have shipped the purchase;
(If you have not yet sent the purchase, please do not proceed with the
exchange).
4. If shipped, the company used for shipping, date of shipment, and
tracking number so that PayPal can verify online for shipment and delivery;
5. Details of any other payments you sent or received that were related to
the above transaction.
6. A phone number where you can be reached during the day and evening.
We would like to obtain as much information as possible about the above
transaction, including any email correspondence between you and the buyer,
in order to expedite this investigation. Solving fraudulent cases helps us
continue to offer PayPal as a secure and cost-effective payment service.
Thank you for your cooperation and assistance.
Sincerely,
PayPal Account Review Department
SO WHAT CAN I DO?
also I really like the "In the meantime, you are free to continue transacting using your
PayPal account"
