I have had enough of this paypal shit, some people dont pay in f and f some pay in g and s, and i am very confused which one to take? I recently got 1300$ scammed via a payment from f and f, and g and s problems with chargeback.

How can i save myself from all these? I heard g and s invoice is the best way but how does it work? and what conditions/etc to put in an invoice? Please help

When paying with Friends and family its still not safe...
A simple vpn and chargeback will result in them winning...

goods and services is easier for them to win a chargeback... in reality, paypal is not a good payment source.. however its the most well known.
Agreed, my dad has totally gone away from Paypal since it's such a scammy service. Anyone can chargeback if they know what they're doing since Paypal doesn't protect you at all. I remember back in like 2016 when people would donate like 10-15 times to a server small payments then chargeback. When the server owner would attempt to chargeback the person charging back would win the case and the owner would be charged an additional $20 for each payment. That's how my first Paypal went -12k. However, I was lucky enough to not actually have my bank account or SSN linked allowing me to just say I was underage since I was only 16 at the time and just having the account suspended. However, I still kept around 5k since I would remove the money immediately and move it to another PayPal.

The best shot you got is getting them to pay g&s and to chargeback then cancel. In most cases that should solve your problem.

that would surely make paypal notice all my transaction and might dismissing my account since for every transaction there would be a dispute, paypal would kill me lmao.

I mean for ones that you feel are more risky then others. You can also ask them to do it at first then not require them after, will make scammers think twice before going through with it.

tbh people usually are legit but this is first time a stupid guy disputed me and i lost dispute[DOUBLEPOST=1591938124][/DOUBLEPOST]Maybe making tos and letting user agree to tos before paying in an invoice can be a good option

blockchain.com doesn't ask for anything as long as you don't buy BTC from them (exchangers on here can get you some BTC and it'll work just fine)
