What people actually said
Archived data · Jul 30, 2026 – Sep 30, 2026**Chase cannot stop the merchant from emailing you, but it is still worth calling them for two reasons:** **Inform them of merchant harassment: Card networks (Visa/Mastercard) have strict merchant rules against coercing cardholders outside the network following a dispute. Ask Chase to file a Merchant Misconduct Report or report the merchant to their merchant processing bank (acquirer).** **Confirm the chargeback is closed: Ensure Chase’s decision was final and that the merchant did not file pre-arbitration or arbitration.** **CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau): File a complaint if a collection agency attempts to collect or place an unauthorized mark on your credit report without proper debt validation.** **State Attorney General (Consumer Protection Division): File a complaint against the business in your state (and the merchant's home state). State AGs deal frequently with deceptive trade practices, including merchants forcing consumers to pay to return broken goods.** **Federal Trade Commission (FTC): Report unfair or deceptive business practices via** [**ReportFraud.ftc.gov**](https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/)**. While the FTC doesn't resolve individual cases, your report contributes to enforcement against deceptive merchant practices.**
Don’t have second thoughts, it’s obviously a scam. In what world does PayPal contact you with a Gmail account then tells you to send the scammer $200 to “fix” the issue of you not getting the non existent $180
Would be careful sending money directly to paypal links on the internet. If you want to donate here is the gofundme which is verified [https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-the-minnesota-spiderman-recover](https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-the-minnesota-spiderman-recover) [https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-spidermans-legal-defense](https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-spidermans-legal-defense)
They should be in every church in America. The amount diddling the good Christian folks do is outrageous.
I think I’ll pass on that. It’s so damn niche 😂 I appreciate you reaching out though
This past few weeks i have been receiving notifications about transactions i did not do or authorized. Paypal is not safe anymore . I’m glad i removed all my bank info and linked cards before it happen and i put paypal balance only for online transactions so it not went through. But still knowing somebody has access to your paypal aside from you is not cool. They probably had some date breached.
What would be your offer on a PSA 10 scream Pikachu promo? Thanks!
