hello.

 

 

 

* i met a merchant on an internet forum

 

* he is either going to send a paypal invoice to my email

   or he might ask me to send him the money directly.

 

 

 

* are paypal invoices / send money for goods and services covered by paypal buyer protection?

To be eligible for PayPal Buyer Protection you must meet all of the following requirements:

 

  • For items bought on other websites:
    1. through the Send Money tab on the PayPal website, by clicking the “Purchase” tab, or by selecting the “Checkout with PayPal” button or otherwise selecting PayPal as part of a Seller’s checkout flow.

there's no mention of paypal invoices being covered by paypal buyer protection,

 

but it looks sending money directly to a seller is protected.

 

 

can anyone confirm this for me?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

thanks for letting me know.
