Description
When I checked out of the website thinking it was for liquidation like Marshals and other companies on eBay that sell discounted merchandise used or open box ex I made a payment of 85 dollars and then out of thin air I was billed twice by two different merchants on PayPal with no tracking or item information. I lost my PayPal account they banned me for this one time I’ve been with them for three years doing transactions because they said I’m too risky of a customer. My PayPal credit card (through synchrony however is still active and they’ve issued me a new account number) I have no way of using my credit card now which could lead it to being closed and damages incurred (a hit on my credit score)
