On July 3, 2014 I sent a invoice via PayPal secure invoice system to Dale Ficklin for the purchase of a custom BBQ Trailer.  The invoice was paid with a credit card by James Demus.  PayPal handled the whole transaction. 

On July 12, 2014 Dale Ficklin came with his truck to pickup the grill.  I took pictures of the truck and trailer with the license plates showing. 

On Aug 4, 2014 a dispute was filed with PayPal stating that an unauthorized credit card transaction had occurred on this purchase.  A hold was placed on my funds for the amount of $675. 

I contacted PayPal to give details of what had happened.  I explained that the buyer had been sent an invoice via PayPal and that PayPal had completed the transaction not me.  I sent photos of the buyer picking up the grill at my place of business. 

I was advised that I did not provide enough information therefore my dispute was settled in favor of the buyer.  Now I am out of the grill that was built and $675. 

I was advised by PayPal that even though they completed the credit card transaction, whenever a customer says that it was an unauthorized  use of the credit card they must investigate.  They investigated themselves and charged it against me. 

Now I filed a complaint with the Fraud Division of the DOJ who handles internet fraud.  Please do not trust PayPal and it's secure invoice system for business. I will never use PayPal ever again.
