    I ordered a t-shirt online and paid for it using pay pal

    I have now had a further payment of £102 taken from account payable to this pay pal

    Has anyone used it before and does this mean someone has fraudulently taken the money or could pay pal have made a mistake

    If it has been taken fraudulently are paypal liable??

    Thanks

    Oh jeez. That doesn't sound good mate.

    I'd try and get in contact with them.

    Probably fraud. My sister has just been conned the same way. She's reported it to her credit card company who are investigating it.

    You're completely covered by PayPal themselves

    </p>

    You need to report this to them as well as your own bank.</p>
