"He said Paypal in NO way will loose money." Gues he thinks businesses such as Paypal that get scammed are doing great in the recession. Good thing dcperdue set him straight. Paypal looses millions a year due to Ebay fraud. Well Ebay owns Paypal anyway so Ebay looses millions.
I already contacted the seller to revise it, she has to initiate the request.

As far as getting money back from PayPal, the only way I see that happening, is if the device is returned to the seller. PayPal certainly isn't going to let the buyer keep the item, and get their money back.

I know it sucks for those who are going through this, trust me, I was there. It took me many many calls and hours of my time to get my situation fixed.

I think that the people who DID get stolen/claimed phones, should be worked with, with Sprint/Asurion, but, likely that's not going to happen, because both companies are boneheaded, and would rather just act rashly, and not think first. I'm all but sure there's going to be alot of phones turned off, which I think is unfair, but, like I said, that's Sprint and Asurion making those decisions.
