I bought some BTC on Paxful with Paypal and there is this person who I bought from that refunded me a payment that I sent him and is asking me to send it to another paypal email, he claims that it limited his account... (I have done many trades on there and this guy seems the be the only one that has this problem).

Can he somehow recall the payment he refunded me?

I asked him to provide screen shots of the problem but it doesn't seem to match up, I am very skeptical, I already sent a payment he refunded me from another time to another one of his Paypal email but I think I might be getting scammed somehow, I am not entirely sure what the Paypal policy is so that is why I am asking here in the hopes someone can help me.

I think better you contact Paypal support or start dispute process.
All situation looks very suspicious to me, please be careful.


why it looks suspicious? the one that buys with PayPal is the OP, so i think there is no scam attempt in this transaction
maybe the one that sold BTC has his PayPal got limited due to this transaction?

Because it seems he already have one paypal account limited and using other one, what is not allowed.


But i search on PayPal Rules about having multiple accounts and found this article

Can I have multiple PayPal accounts?
Yes. You can have one Consumer account and one  Business account. You can add more email addresses, debit or credit cards, and bank accounts to your account, but each account must have its own email address and financial information. You can also upgrade your Consumer account to a Business account.

based on that articles it says we can have multiple PayPal accounts

Don't believe him, it's a scam

Yes, he might be pulling some scams here. Better you contact Paypal as early as possible and clear everything. I'm sure you know that bitcoin transaction is irreversible so once you send it there's no way you can get it back.

Looks very suspicious and sketchy. Anyways, good luck to you.

Go on and contact the PayPal support, don't let this pass on for a long time so that they can take actions quickly.

Also he asked me 2 weeks after I paid him.

So you're asking us if it is OK to scam the person?
Yes it is possible that a paypal account might get limited. You got the bitcoin, right? Send the payment right away to the person, or you're a fucking scammer. Bitcoin payments are irreversible so send him the money. He can't "recall" anything because it is a refund. You initiated the transaction and PayPal are giving you 6 months to chargeback on top of you getting paid in bitcoin. So less yapping, more payment.
I am being annoyed with people trying to scam others. Just do what you promised and pay for your bitcoin. You got the bitcoin, right? Since you received the paypal refund you now have twice the koney you started with. Just pay for your bitcoin! Why asking questions?!?

EDIT: If you aks PayPal, of course they are going to keep the money in your account. That's of their interest.

What it needs to take 2 weeks after paying him? this is already sketchy. This is why others don't want to take transactions through Paypal but it is already there, like this suggestion above. The only people that can help you are the support from PayPal itself.

You may call or contact them thru https://www.paypal.com/us/smarthelp/contact-us

There are options of calling them, emailing or chatting them.
