      Not sure why people keep saying send as a gift. IT STILL CAN BE REVERSED! All the person has to do is call and say someone used their account without their authorization and paypal will pull it back. Sending in as a gift only prevents them from filing a dispute or chargeback. If they "claim" unauthorized use, then your screwed.

      so to people who say that sending as gift can still be reversed, what is a better solution to prevent such scams? Donations options? Or changing a better resource eg western union, moneybookers etc,.
      really interested to know .. i got scammed too before over such stuffs with paypal .. sigh

      1) where did you find them
      2) did you had to trade their lvl 80s or just a lvl 1 trade account for the gold
      3) did you make them to send you an email - so you can compare the email sent and the paypal account ( scamming a paypal account doesnt mean that the scammer als has acceess to the email box of the scammed person)

      4) paypal can reverse payments up to 6 months after the payment was done ( paypals contract with CC companies )

      Have them use moneybookers(.com)

      Registering takes 2-5 mins and they can pay through their bank account, ebanking (direct) or Creditcards... disputes NOT possible
