I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, but on a competing forum, a similar thing happened. A girl called Sachi bought over $1000 worth of stuff, and then did a CB on every purchase, apparently by telling the bank that she hadn't sent those payments.
Another member and I set up a donation pool for everyone affected and we raised quite a lot, but 75 days after the CB first happened, it seemed Paypal had the ability to gather information from the bank (obviously flags were raised due to the amount of disputes opened against her). Everyone (or the majority at least) was then refunded.
Even if you lose the current dispute, guys, don't give up. If enough of you complain, eventually Paypal will sort out something. I think there's some rule that they can't look into certain aspects until 75 days have passed (privacy maybe? I'm not entirely sure). BUT, I thought I'd share this information. =]
I wish you all the best of luck <3

Okay, so I finally figured out what a CB is, but what I don't understand is how do you know it was a CB and not a mistake on their part? Cause I'm having a similar situation now, but don't know if I should report it?
I've sent in evidence of him/her scamming by screenshots of our transaction, as well as other chargeback claims I found via the forums.
I got a chargeback from this user 2 days ago.

For those that were concerned with Paypal possibly taking money out of your bank account, they cant.
However.. If you buy something online through paypal, they will take your purchase price and your negative balance and try to take all that from your bank then. Thats the only time that Paypal will take extra money from your bank.. so I guess until this is resolved, thats a good thing.
I have shipped the item and I can provide proof that the item was shipped through an approved shipper to the address on the Transaction Details page.
I have not shipped the item and I will refund the payment.
I have refunded the payment for this transaction.
before, there was a fourth option that went something along the lines of "I can provide other proof and other details about this transaction" where i could upload a picture and explain what happened.
Any idea why it's not here anymore?
Help is appreciated!

What you guys still have to remember is, this money wasn't his. It was fraud, so even if you have proof that he sent the payment it doesn't really seem to matter. No, it doesn't hurt to send all this info in to paypal, but you also have to remember that the money was some innocent peoples.
More like his mom and dad's PayPal.
